IYuePeng building blocks set are very similar to Gakken blocks. This set has pices of different and unusual shapes and proportions.
The pieces of this set have unusual proportions compared to the different “waffle” blocks. They have slim, long pegs and big openings, and you can fit two pegs in one opening if you need to. There are also rod-like pieces most waffle block don’t have. These long and slim details can be very handy if you want to stack pieces instead of connecting them the usual way.
The set also includes wheels and specias axis details. So you can connect the wheels seamlessly to the rest of your craft. This is a major improvement compared to the older “waffle” sets where the wheels couldn’t actually rotate. Most “waffle” building sets also have sharp shapes with many corners, with Gakken being one of the exceptions. IYuePeng building blocks set has pieces with round ends, so the crafts look more smooth.
The size of the pieces is smaller that in the most “waffle” building blocks. All the pieces in this set are abot 1.5 inch long and less than an inch thick. They are safe for the older kids to use, but they still may be too tricky for children who are younger than 3 years old.
