150 Piece Playmags Magnetic Tiles Set

We got this as a Christmas gift for my 3 and 1 year olds. Here’s everything I love about these: -both of them can play with them for a LONG time. It keeps them so entertained and they love it! -these have the rivets to help keep the magnets in place. I was worried about other brands that only use glue. These rivets feel very sturdy and I don’t worry about magnets popping out. Very safe. -cost: these are half the price of other brands that give you smaller sets. Love that this comes with 150 poeces so my kids and build more things.

This is our fourth set of magnetic tiles. The first two we purchased were MagnaTiles brand (a used forty-something piece set without rivets and a new thirty-something piece set with rivets). Once I found out that there were other brands, we bought the 100 piece Picasso Tiles set (no rivets). Finally, because our four year old son literally plays with these off and on all day every day from the time he wakes up to the time he goes to bed (for about a year and a half now), we bought yet another set - this time Playmags brand (has rivets [including this info because I know some people are concerned about their kids swallowing magnets]). All I can say is that someone really dropped the ball when it comes to this toy's patent, because they are all the same - same size, same weight, same magnet-strength and quality (I had read a few reviews about the magnets repelling each other - we do not have that problem at all). The Picasso Tiles and the Plagmags are slightly more translucent. The Playmags' rivets are slightly larger than the MagnaTiles. They all work together seamlessly. I recommend this Playmags set over the other sized sets and brands because number one - your child will want as many of these as possible in order to make all the cool things they dream up. Number two - this set comes with two cars, which even if you get the 48 piece MagnaTile set with the car, it's only one car; Playmags is the only other brand that I know of that has cars (my son loves them - they even connect, train-like). Number three - the variety of shapes is unbeatable. Number four - they're less expensive while offering the largest size set I've seen. Playmags are worthy of five stars. If we ever purchase more magnetic tiles (although, hopefully this will hold him for a while), this will definitely be the brand we choose. Not to sound too cliche, but they really are fun for the whole family.

I absolutely love the new Playmags! We got the 150 piece set last year (2015) for Christmas and the kids loved them. Unfortunately, in my opinion, the magnets just weren't as strong as I thought they would be. We could build decent structures but everything seemed to fall apart after it would get so big. According to my kids, the babysitter's magformers were much stronger and stayed together better. I tossed the idea around of getting a different brand, but price wise I just didn't want to spend the extra money on a better magnet with way less pieces. Like I said, my kids (ages 8, 6, 4, and 2) still played with them all the time and didn't seem to mind. Luckily, I procrastinated on getting another set of playmags and they came out with the new stronger magnets with the clickins. We got the updated 150 piece set, the alphabet click in set, and the building plate. We are completely in love. The new magnets are so much stronger! Even using them with our older blocks makes the older ones more sturdy. The click ins with alphabet and windows add so much more fun to our buildings and the kids like trying to put their names on the sides of the buildings. I can not say enough about the new set. Still not sure how they compare to other brands, but we love what we have. They are the first toy I grab when we have moms group as they are always a hit with all age children. I would love to see some new sets with more shapes or building ideas in the future! Attached photos: the tower my 4 year old built and up close picture of the magnet. The W and green block have the newer magnets, the two blocks below it have the older, thinner magnets. My daughter never could have built that same tower with the old blocks!

Very good toy. Good quality .

Perfect. Exactly what my granddaughter wanted

amazing magna tiles!! works just as good as original! my kids love playing with them! only thing is the letter tiles were a dot annoying to snao in to the magna tiles, but not the worst thing.

They are a great value vs. other brands. There are brands that are cheaper, but in quality also (P). These playmags seem just as safe and well built as MT. They are also compatible, the same size so they can be used together. My complaint with other “off brands” was that they were incompatible with MT due to the sizes being off. These playmags are exactly the same sizes. The cube was built using both brands. The letters are a nice addition, they are a bit hard to snap in so it might be tough for children to get them in and out. They also only provide 13 tiles, with one letter on each side. So you’re limited on spelling actual words but they’re good for letter recognition. UPDATE: After I left this review we were going through all of the colors and shapes and one of the green squares rivets fell out and was smashed. The piece still seems sturdy like it will stay together with no chance of the magnets coming out. But i figured i should add this after leaving a glowing review about how safe and well built they are.

Great for creative play. My two grandchildren love building with these.

Boosts child’s creativity. Good quality. Super klocki do zabawy dla 3 latka jak i starszych dzieci.

Ma nièce joue beaucoup avec ça l'a fait se développer j'adore !

Tutto bene con l'ordine e la spedizione. Prodotto fatto molto bene e di qualità. Mia figlia di 3 anni ha apprezzato tantissimo. Con 150 pezzi ci sono tantissime possibilità di costruire cose diverse. Consigliato.

Kindjes zijn er erg blij mee

Editado: 1 año después sigue siendo el juguete estrella. Ideal para hacer construcciones y combinar con muñecos y coches. Hemos hecho de todo: garajes, pistas, casas, castillos, torres, parques, toboganes... Prácticamente jugamos todos los días. Original: Todo son buenas palabras para este juego. Mi hija lleva jugando con él todos los días desde el 25 de diciembre. Pensamos que con los regalos de los Reyes Magos por fin abandonaría este juguete temporalmente, pero no, lo combinó con los nuevos :) Todos los días la palabra 'imanes' es de las primeras que menciona al levantarse. Hemos construido decenas de cosas y no nos cansamos de crear. La calidad de las piezas es buenísima, a pesar de múltiples caídas desde la parte alta de las construcciones no se ha roto ninguna. Los imanes tienen muchísima fuerza (cuidado con pillaros los dedos). Un gran juguete que entretiene a nuestra hija todos los días, desarrolla su creatividad, su agilidad con las manos, su capacidad de resolver problemas, su ingenio... Una gozada, estamos encantados en casa. A todas las personas que han visto este juguete les ha encantado. Recomiendo comprar el paquete de 150 piezas, ya que uno más pequeño puede limitar nuestra creatividad. No os arrepentiréis de su compra. Dinero bien invertido.
