Customer Reviews

Stick to the small sets for young toddlersThese are nice magnetic blocks; I originally purchased the travel pouch back at Christmas time & my 1 year old loved them.. so I bought this 42 pc set, but not realizing the magnets only work in certain spots (the long square blocks only have magnets at the ends). Still fun to play with but much more difficult for my 1.5 year old to figure out than just the smaller pieces in the travel pouch. I could see her getting frustrated when certain ones wouldn t connect. If you find a good deal on them it s worth the purchase, but I think anyone under 3 should stick to the travel kits that Tegu offers until they re able to really understand how to connect to build something with the larger ones. 4Almost Amazing, But Larger Pieces Are Useless for BuildingWhen I got my nephew one of the smaller sets for his third birthday, he really enjoyed the way these crazy blocks would stick together or repel eachother as if by magic. Since the smaller set was such a success, I thought I'd go big this Christmas (especially when Amazon had their gold box sale, offering the 42 block set for around $60). When I opened the set to repack the blocks since they're traveling this Christmas, I was dusappointed to discover that Tegu has basically sabotaged their own product's potential as a building toy.Let me explain. The best blocks in any tegu set are the small 1x1x1 cubes. These cubes have a magnet in every surface, which makes it possible to stick them (and other pieces) together in interesting ways. The next best are the flat 1x2 planks, which have only two magnets, but since these pieces are so thin, you have four potential sticking points, two on the front two on the back.Had Tegu continued this pattern for all of their pieces, I would have no complaints. Unfortunately, the larger the pieces grow, the fewer magnetic sticking points you will find in each one.The large, flat 1x7 planks have only three magnetic points, one at each end and one in the middle. If you planned on adding plank walls, a second story floor, or a roof to your structure, think again. The blocks' design makes it impossible to build anything with consecutively laid out planks.The trapezoidal blocks that seem to promose the potential for peaked roofs or angles for your structure have only two magnets, and both of those are in the angles surfaces. Because the block has no magnets in the top or bottom, it's impossible to brace, and the magnets arenxt strong enough to hold together any sort of peak on their own. Worse, because those magnets are of opposing polarity, instead of both being negative or positive, angled structures that connect back to the main body usually end up refusing to attach on one side. The only interesting thing you can build with them is the four-part square shown on the box.The absolute worst pieces in the box, however, are the tall 1x1x8 pieces that tegu uses to mock up skeleton houses on the cover illustration. These pieces have a total of two magnets which gives you only two sticking points, one on either end of the block. This, combined with their great weight, means that they can, practically speaking, *only* be used as vertical pillars; but thanks to their great height and lack of any magnetic sticking points on the sides, these pilars are impossible to brace or build out from, so you can only build extremely flimsy empty box frames as shown on the cover. It's not what I'd call a design full of possibilities.I don't mean to rag on Tegu. Sets using mostly smaller blocks can be very compelling and fun to play with. However, any set with blocks and planks larger than 3" ends up feeling cheap and difficult to work with. I understand that the magnets are probably the most expensive component in each block, and that Tegu runs a very worthy work program; but if they want to bill these magnetic blocks as a constructor toy, they should offer large block designs that don't actively hinder construction (i.e. that have a few more sticking points), or else stick to making smaller blocks. It would be a simple fix, and not an expensive one for the plank pieces (since each magnet provides two sticking points, meaning that a 1x6 plank would have the same number of magnets as the little cubes that they have not trouble manufacturong profitably).They could also increase the blocks' potential as a stem toy simply and inexpensively by marking each magnet with either a + or a -- sign depending on its polarity. This would give kids a simple visual marker to show that positive and negative sides stick together, rather than using trial and error, flipping each block until it fits. Tegu already prints its name on each of the blocks, so printing or burning a small polarity sign won't add much, if anything to the cost of the bricks.TL;DR: The small Tegu blocks are great, but the larger pieces are practically useless due to their small number of magnets (some of the largest pieces have 1/3 the magnets found in their smallest cubes). This makes Tegu a poor construction toy, especially compared to something as versitile as Legos. If you buy Tegu, buy a smaller set. Big pieces are more frustrating than fun, and more irritating to incorporate into your structure than useful. 3FrustratingI really wanted to love these blocks. I'd been admiring them for months, and bought two sets for my girls for Christmas. What a disappointment. They are beautiful, that's for certain. But because they only have magnets on somr sides, they are extremely frustrating. Even for my 10 year old. Magna tiles are much more fun in my opinion. Too bad. 2Not Magnetic enoughI have purchased Tegu sets before-- the natural mahogany one with smaller pieces. For some reason this particular colored set is terrible: the magnets are not strong at all leaving my toddler complaining that the blocks "don't work." The paint is scratching off after less than a month of limited use, and some of the blocks (the longer ones) seem to have absolutely no magnet in them whatsoever. VERY disappointed in such an expensive purchase, which I made based on the strength of my previous set. I wonder if this is a faulty set? Or a fake? 1Can't wait to try these wheels out!!We are new to the Tegu fanbase, but oh boy are we BIG fans! I'm jumping on any sale I can find, even though I don't even mind the price tag for the entertainment it provides.. I want to collect as many sets as we possibly can, so yeah!These blocks are even fun for us adults to join in and play with and don't seem to become so repetitive and tedious as regular old stacking blocks. Little kids often get so frustrated when their creations tumble to the ground before they can even finish so I think the magnetic effect makes it so much more fun to really get into being creative about what you build.. because it doesn't all fall down on them. My son is always so happy to have us come see what he made! 5My kids play with their regular boring blocks or their magma tiles 1000 times moreI know everyone raves about these but my kids don't. There's not enough parts of the blocks that are magnetized. You can really only use them end to end & even then you have to use the small squares often to get it to hold the way you want and there are not enough of those. My kids play with their regular boring blocks or their magma tiles 1000 times more. 3Frustrating...The quality of these blocks is very good. They have a nice feel. The only real problem is where the magnets are placed in them. You can only stick them together in certain places, not where you want. It makes it hard to build things. The magnets don't connect in what seems like a logical way...so your creations are a bit frustrating. These were a little pricey, and we just don't play with them much. We ordered a couple different sets, plus accessories. Disappointed for that reason. 3Not as shownAlthough they look pretty as a set and the pics make you think you can build lots of things. It is not true. I spent $250 dollars for two basic sets and carriers and my 3 and 4 year old grandsons played with them along with adults helping for about ten minutes. Then they totally lost interest including the adults. The longish blocks only have magnets at each end so they do not stick together like the pictures show you can in making a car. You can't build and stick together the items as shown in the pictures. Impossible. The 2 kids finally stuck the 4 wheels from the sets on each end of a long square block and tried to roll it down the hallway calling it a car and with any pressure at all the wheels fall off. What an absolute waste of money. Just get regular building blocks instead of these and the kids will be a lot happier and the adults will too for not putting out all that money. 2Children at heart, take note!We love Tegu! We purchased this set (after owning a small set prior) during a special discount before Christmas and couldn't be happier. The blocks themselves are beautifully made and high quality, hence the pricing. My husband and I are always on the hunt for toys that are not only educational, but well-made and can serve multiple purposes or can grow with the child. These are exactly that! These are great for imaginative play, fine motor skills, color recognition, polarity, and best of all they really can be used from age 1-99! My husband and I have a blast helping our 4 year old create new structures. I'm excited to see what she will create on her own as she gets older and hope to add to our collection!We had already had a 14 block set, but wish we would have bought a larger set from the beginning since the more the merrier! These are a great gift since they are unique and everyone we have gifted these to or recommended them to have loved them. 5Huge DisappointmentI love wooden toys and these looked beautiful. I read the reviews which weren't overwhelming, but I thought I would give them a chance. Well, I should have listened to the negative reviews. The magnets only lock in certain directions and they aren't even located in essential places on the blocks, only on certain sides of the ends. Building anything other than a very basic house is frustrating for even adults. The concept is great, but the execution is very poor.Save your money for other wooden toys like a Grimms rainbow at this high of a price point. They are most definitely not worth it. Sadly it cost me over $10 in return fees to find that out. :( 1
