"So what toy you or someone else has bought your child over the years has drove you to the brink of Madness, either noisy or just an utter twat to put together
My sister bought my son a Batman city scene type of thing a few years back. The air was blue while Mark put it together  .It was all air powered with a minefield of tubes that made various things happen.9 hours it took him and I think the bairn played with it for 30 mins "

Oh heck so many over the years, though I do remember buying my sons some of the micro machines and the vans that transform to roads. I spent hours sticking all the stickers all over them, many of them small and fiddly. Thankfully the boys did like them. X  |

"I used to have a wee keyboard and the sample tune on it was "wake me up before you go-go" by Wham, that used to drive my parents nuts, I can still hear it in my head now "

I can remember The Italian Job game for the old Playstation 1 we bought our son , we would go to bed with the constant sound of a police car siren in our heads and Michael Caine shouting "Put your foot down , Put your foot down we'll lose them easy"  |

Think this one might win.
Bought one of the kids an Amstrad CPC464 when they first came out, discovered you could not buy any games for it (was on the cassette format) so spent literally weeks, finding games in pc magazines and hand typing in all the codes that they printed for the WHOLE GAME, soul destroying it was |

I remember when my sisters both got Furbys for Christmas back in the early 90's and I wanted to launch them out of the window by new years day
I do remember my Hornby train set being an arse to set up, but it was bought for me when I was around 7 so my dad set it all up, I just had to learn how to use it. Still got it all in boxes somewhere, hasn't been used in nearly 30 years! |

I'd have to say some of the recent Lego Techic sets simply because, whilst my son is quite enthusiastic about them he pretty much wants me to put them together.
Which I'm OK with, but they take hours and I end up with back ache from sitting in the same position for hours, lol |

"Mousetrap"
A lifetime to set up and 3 minutes to play
I hated the Glitterator. You put a ring inside a dome which spun at “super high speed” spraying it with glitter. Yeah and my whole fucking house!! |
