I'm sure your family isn't like mine, op.
Fuc it if you want to buy it for him just buy it. srs
Don't overthink it.

Opie. That chit is badass. The fact that you're gonna build it with him is dope too.

Who cares brah. It's a legit awesome gift for the kid and he'll remember this chit forever. The real gift is the putting it together with each other.
I don't even have a niece or nephew. I have two young cousins though on my moms side. The boy is now 18 and loves silver/gold and coins. I buy him different silver for every occasion and although they think it's cool they kind of look at me like giving $50-100 of silver is too much. I reward his ability of "getting it" when it comes to currency. He always says to me, "One day I'll be the one buying you silver as a gift."
All about the memories, relationships and creating that sort of unique bond. You're a good uncle brah.
