This Magna-Tiles set has only very big rectangular plates. It is meant to become an addition to some other set you already own. It’s hard to build something using only this set, but it can do wonders with any set of usual-sized pieces. These big plates are rare in other Magna-Tiles set, and they allow creation of bigger buildings and sculptures. The only minus of the set is lack of magnets in the center of bigger plate – you can only add things to the edges.
Some Magna-Tiles DX crafts, showcasing unusual pieces this set includes.
This is a small, but interesting set by Magna-Tiles. All squares in this set have either glittery plastic or mirror surface. All crafts made from this set has unique appearence. The cons are small size of the set (only 15 pieces) and small choice of shapes – there are only triangles and squares. However, you can use Stardust with any other Magna-Tiles set, adding mirrors and glitter to your crafts.
Metro Mags and Magnetic Stick N Stack are most likely clones and cousins of the original Magna-Tiles. I don’t know what the quality of Metro Mags is. But something tells me that it’s no worse than the Magnetic Stick N Stack. And we checked this one and were quite satisfied, it doesn’t differ from the original in magnetic properties.
The manufacturer calls these small blue pieces with holes “Imagination Pieces”. They have no crear role or purpose – it’s up to you to invent where to use them.
Magnetic Stick N Stack is the same as Magna-Tiles, tested empirically. But Magna-Tiles doesn’t has this wonder. So we will definitely get a couple of these plates at the first opportunity. Building from magnetic panels on a magnetic board, of course, is also convenient, but this plate is what you need for making ceilings, large roofs of large garages (a very actual topic for us). Its size is 30×30 cm!
This is a very interesting and valuable set for any magnetic tile enthusiast. It has 48 pieces, both classic tiles like squares and triangles and unusual ones. These unusual pieces include big and small tiles with windows and a wide arch. This silly carriage shows different tiles this set has to offer.
The construction set consists of bright plastic blocks of various shapes, very similar to the details of the American Magna-Tiles – Working Trucks set. The Japanese company People has released its magnetic construction kits under the general name Pythagoras.
