I just figured since the op specifically mentioned "limited financial resources" something like what I posted would come closer to what he's looking for than a "not toy grade" build for his first attempt.
As to the poor phrasing of the manufacturer's description; how many other Chinese made products suffer from such clumsy translation? so many that such poor translation even has it's own name;"Chinglish", and I try not to judge products based on such language barriers. I especially liked "It could be a creative festival gift for your lover" , which sounds to me like a poor attempt at "It could be a great special occasion present for your spouse" , laughable for sure but doesn't speak much to it's quality(or lack thereof)
