When it comes to blending science, art, and sheer playfulness, NikolaToy has long caught my eye. Over the years, I’ve sampled dozens of quirky models, kinetic sculptures, and “toy-engineered” curiosities — but the moment I unboxed my first NikolaToy piece, I knew there was something different here. These are not simple knickknacks, but conversation pieces, STEM toys, and desktop gadgets that invite you to tinker. In this review, I’ll walk you through five standout products from NikolaToy that I’ve personally tested — along with candid pros and cons — so you can see whether they’re worth adding to your collection (or recommending to your audience).
Reviews of 5 NikolaToy Products
Below are five items I tried. I’ve aimed to pick ones from different categories (desktop / decorative / engine / electromagnetic) to showcase the brand’s range.
NikolaToy TR900 Turbofan Engine Model (46 cm / 18 in)
First Impressions & Build
This is one of NikolaToy’s flagship models. When I received the 46 cm version, the packaging felt secure, with foam inserts and a clear parts layout. The metal parts, intake fan, and housing felt sturdy; there was no rattle or flimsy plastic in the core structure.
Assembly & Operation
That said, it’s a DIY kit. Expect to spend a few evenings carefully following instructions. The tolerances are tight, so patience is required. Once built, powering it up (via brushless motor) gives a satisfying whirr: you can see the blades spin, feel the airflow, and the realistic design draws attention. It’s not just a static model.
Pros
- Eye-catching centerpiece: when running, it looks like a jet engine in miniature.
- Solid materials: mainly metal, with well-machined parts.
- Good size for a desktop display.
Cons
- Requires time and careful patience to assemble correctly.
- The motor noise is audible (not super loud, but not silent either).
- Shipping and delivery took longer than expected (based on my ordering experience and some user reports).
- Some users mention delayed or missing shipments.
My Verdict
If your audience loves mechanical models or aviation, this is a keeper. It’s a tangible “wow” piece. But warn them: this is not a plug-and-play shelf ornament — it demands assembly and understanding.

NikolaToy Maglev Mini Aircraft (Levitation Model)
First Impressions & Design
This little aircraft literally floats. The magnet-based levitation and motor-driven blades make it seem to hover like magic. Its size is compact, so it doesn’t dominate your workspace.
Operation & Visual Appeal
Once the base magnet is powered and balanced, the small plane hovers a few millimeters above. The rotor starts, and you see a model aircraft in flight — in your room. It’s mesmerizing. It attracts comment guests and makes for a great desk toy.
Pros
- Unique conversation piece: levitation gives it a “wow” factor.
- Compact, elegant design.
- Great for gifting to gadget lovers or sci-fi fans.
Cons
- Sometimes needs repositioning to maintain stable levitation.
- Sensitive to external disturbances (vibration, slight contact) — it can fall.
- Not a high-power engine: it’s more for visual effect than serious mechanics.
My Verdict
One of my favorites for decorative tech. It’s less about pure function and more about delighting the eye. A perfect pick for those wanting something futuristic but subtle.
NikolaToy Sharingan Crystal Ball
Visual & Aesthetic Appeal
This is not a mechanical engine; it’s an RGB-illuminated crystal ball inspired by anime (Sharingan motif). The ball glows, pulses, and shifts color — ideal as a night light or decorative accent.
Performance & Feel
The crystal ball feels premium — heavy glass or acrylic. The LED lighting is bright without being overpowering. Touch control (or proximity) changes the mode. When darkness falls, the glowing eye effect is dramatic.
Pros
- Stunning lighting effect — great for ambient mood or themed decor.
- Solid construction and finish.
- Compact footprint — fits on a shelf or side table.
Cons
- Its niche styling: may only appeal to anime / fantasy fans.
- It’s decorative more than functional (no mechanical or STEM component).
- Power cord or battery life needs checking (minor detail).
My Verdict
This is a great add-on piece to diversify your catalog. Not for pure tech lovers, but for those who appreciate visual flair.

NikolaToy Rocket‑Station Humidifier Desktop Model
Design & Purpose
At first glance, this looks like a miniature rocket station — and that’s exactly the charm. But it’s also a humidifier/ambient mist device. The fusion of form (rocket, sci-fi) and function (humidity) is clever.
User Experience
When turned on, it mists gently from the “launch pad” area or rocket chimney. The effect is soft, atmospheric. It’s quieter than many standard humidifiers I’ve tried, making it suitable for desks or bedrooms.
Pros
- Dual-purpose: visual delight + utility (some humidity).
- Quieter than expected.
- Great for themed rooms / tech lovers wanting an unusual humidifier.
Cons
- The humidity output is moderate—not suitable for large rooms.
- Requires water refill and occasional cleaning.
- Aesthetic appeal overshadows function (i.e. it’s more decor than workhorse humidifier).
My Verdict
A clever hybrid piece. For people who like the idea of merging gadgets and utility, this is a fun choice. But don’t oversell it as a serious humidifier.
NikolaToy Floating Workspace Sculpture / Decorative Model
First Look & Concept
This is one of those floating or magnetic-suspended sculptures. In my case, the “levitating decor” version I got allowed a small object or shape to hover via magnetic forces.
Performance & Effect
Once powered, the floating part balances midair with barely perceptible wobble. To me, it created a “luxury sci-fi” feeling — the item seems to defy gravity. It’s subtle, but impressive when guests lean in to check how it works.
Pros
- Elegant and minimalist, yet magical.
- Low noise, low maintenance.
- Fits nicely on a desk or shelf without occupying much space.
Cons
- Requires calibration initially (you may spend minutes aligning).
- If bumped slightly, the hovering part may fall temporarily.
- Some users may question durability over long term.
My Verdict
A great “entry piece” into NikolaToy’s magnetic/levitation line. Lower risk than full engine kits, but still impressive.

Overall Impressions & User Feedback
After testing these, here’s my holistic view:
- NikolaToy offers a compelling mix of visual engineering, art, and interactive functionality — their niche is gadgets that are as much decor and conversation starters as toys.
- The build quality is generally good to excellent. For mechanical kits (like the TR900), precision matters — you’ll feel it in tight fits and machining.
- Some negatives stem from delivery, shipment, or customer service. On Trustpilot, while many praise product quality, others complain about missing items and lack of response.
- Looking at ScamAdviser, the site’s trust score is moderate (66/100) — so while not red-flagged, due diligence is wise.
- NikolaToy claims a supply chain with rapid shipping (orders shipped within 48 hours from warehouses).
In short: for tech/design/enthusiast audiences, these are compelling items. But when promoting affiliate links, it’s best to temper expectations (e.g. “may take longer shipping time depending on location”) and highlight the wow factor.
Closing Thoughts
If I were to sum it up: NikolaToy exists at the sweet spot between art and engineering. Their offerings are not mass-market toys — they’re niche, statement pieces for people who love the fusion of tech, science, and aesthetics.
For your audience, these products can be gold. Imagine a blog post titled “10 desk gadgets that impress visitors” — a TR900 engine or a levitating aircraft fits perfectly. Or a catalog for STEM lovers who also care about design.
Just one caveat: always be transparent. Mention that these are kits (or delicate devices), that shipping might take time, and that some after-sales issues have been reported by users. With that, the exciting, unusual nature of these gadgets will win hearts.
