Product reviews...
I thought this product was a bit pricy. My son spent all of xmas day with his magnetix. The kids just love them!!! I have found that after 6 months of constent use, the magnets started to come out and get lost and the kids lost interest. i now have $600 worth of magnetix that just sits on the dresser in a tangled heap.
What a great toy this is for the kids, keeps them entertained for hours, and quiet too
, I was intending you tell you all about all the wonderful designs I was able to build with this kit, but unfortunately I can't as I just cannot get them away from my kids long enough to have a good go at it myself, so instead I just have to sing it's praises in it's ability to keep your kids quiet for hours on end while you can get on with doing whatever it is you want to do. I have seen my kids build some really cool stuff with it, all it requires is some immagination and the inclination to spend some time doing it.
This is a very cool toy. As my first encounter with magnetic building kits, this was a bit of an eye opener. Its like lego with velco, every piece can attach to each other, or to a steel ball acting as a universal joint allowing connections at almost any angle.
I loved the bright bold colours and the sheer number of parts allowed me to build some interestingly big structures. I enjoy building geometric shapes. Can't pronounce most of them, but they are fun to build and explore.
By mixing these rods with some of the other kits I think you could expand the fun many times over, building more complex and beautiful things so if you plan to buy this kit, don't buy the one, buy a number of them.
