The Magnetic Castle Construction Set – Combination With Bornimago

In the photo, the green straight rods and the red curved ones are from Bornimago, while the plastic panels are from the “Castle” construction set. The construction set pieces combine well with the magnetic rods from Bornimago, except for the plastic half-circle pieces (a separate blue piece in the photo). To fit this piece, you need the original curved rods from the “Castle” construction set: they are either slightly shorter or slightly thinner than the Bornimago ones (I haven’t figured it out yet), but the piece made with the original “Castle” rods doesn’t fall off.

PIXIO Tropic – 60 Small Magnetic Building Blocks for Kids & Adults

This is one of the smaller PIXIO sets, containing 60 pieces in 4 colors. Fully compatible with any other PIXIO building block sets.

Although the magnetic cubes in PIXIO sets are smaller than those found in most magnetic building kits, measuring only 8mm each, they are still remarkably strong. They have the ability to keep rather big toys together once assembled. These cubes are designed to be used as “pixels” in both 2D and 3D sculptures and toys. They can be easily assembled, played with, and then reassembled again, offering endless creative possibilities.
