Pros & Cons
Pros
The idea with the phone is that it never dries out. I find this to be easier to work with then play-doh and does it make as much of a mess. I like that they included a little dot area so that it makes it easier to grab the molded foam out.

It sticks to itself very well, which makes it great for molding just about anything.

Some of the colors were nicely packaged inside, while some were just thrown in.
