Building Bricks Baseplate Variety Compatible (Play Platoon) 2935

Building Bricks - 10 x 10 Baseplate - Variety Pack 6 Pack Compatible with all Major Brands Review (PP-BLBV6)

I used these as baseplates when building my son a lego table. Compared to official baseplates, these are thicker and far less flexible. They are generally straight and work as expected. They work with legos and duplos. That said, the plates aren't 100% "true". For example, when my son built a duplo building across the whole thing, we couldn't keep the pieces lined up enough to make them stable. It appears to be less of a problem with normal lego pieces. The colors are great. There is the occasional "dot" with an injection mark, but otherwise they look nice enough. As a bonus, the plates have receivers on the bottom, so they can be stacked or built on. Honestly, i can't think of a lot of cases where you'd need that, but it doesn't hurt anything. -T. Carolyn

These bricks work seamlessly with the lego brand bricks we already had. This set includes pink, purple and maroon not commonly found in regular lego sets, but two same color bricks next to each other in the wall look the same the only way i can distinguish them is by looking for the tiny lego stamp at the top of the post. The color, texture and fit is the same. Also, this set has a lot of the larger bricks kids want for whatever they are building. Super great buy. We will definitely buy more.

The blocks are amazing. They fit perfectly in every way with my son's exsisting lego collection. I can see no real difference between the blocks aside from these blocks offer more support in each brick then lego's have. Colors are amazing, a huge variety of sizes and all at a greatly less expensive price then lego's. I had initially purchased the 1000pc set in the basic colors and with in 5 mins of opening them and my 5 yr old playing with them i ordered this pastel set. Couldn't be more pleased. -Notice from M.

We wanted to expand our collection quickly in a cost-effective way and this set fit the bill. The colors are great and even though they are described as 'pastel, ' there are some nice earthy tones as well. They are consistent in quality and on par with other major manufacturers. They are additionally compatible with at least the two largest companies that i'm aware of. The distribution between color and size seems to be very consistent as well. Happy building!

- N. ColleenWhenever i walk through the lego store at the mall i am always amazed at how much you can charge for such a simple thing. So when i saw this i was not to sure about the quality. But then i thought, how hard is it to make a small plastic brick. These are great. One of the big complaints with bricks or blocks or whatever, is there is never enough. Well, this has that problem beat. 1000 bricks to build and build and build. Great!

This bag of bricks was just what we needed to finish a project we were working on. It has several of each size brick, and about half are the single row type. The quality is good, and they hook together well. The colors are consistant, and look just like the picture.

I purchased these blocks as a christmas present and am very satisfied. My biggest concern was that the blocks would not fit properly and would lack the durability of actual legos; neither turned out to be true. And yet despite their seemingly perfect compatibility, the design is distinctly different. . While genuine legos appear to be slightly thicker (i would imagine close to a 33% increase), play platoon makes up for this by adding thin plastic spines to the interior of their blocks that connect to the central hollow pillars of the blocks. They have also added ridges along the interior as well (presumably to create a tighter fit). . At first, the design bothered me. Why not just copy lego's design as closely as possible? but since actually playing with the blocks and stress testing them, i find the design to be quite durable. . I'm happy to have these added to our lego collection. And if i need more blocks, i would likely purchase these again.

These are not lego quality - they aren't exactly the same - the fit is not as tight and my son's projects will fall apart when moving things around, unlike legos. That said - my son is 6 and he doesn't know they aren't legos and has a large building set to start with for a fraction of the price. I bought two of these to start him off, i would make the same decision probably - just so he would actually have legos to play with. I can't bring myself to spend the money on a real set - he has a couple sets he received as gifts - so that's what i compare these to. If your child is an avid lego kid and builds intricate things, i would stick to the real deal, but these are good starter sets for younger children. -Notice from B. Morgan, Stoke-on-Trent

As a homeschooling family we have a special love for legos, but the price can be overwhelming. Our co-op needed more legos for some classes we're doing next year, so we thought we'd try these out. They are great! the first thing i did was have my kids try them out along with some regular legos, to make sure they would fit well. The kids love them and they work beautifully with the legos as well. We're thrilled with these. I paid full price for these and my review was not solicited in any way.

- L. StaceyWhen i was first looking into these building bricks, every person who posted a review received the blocks "at a discount, for an unbiased review. " not that i don't trust that, but i always wonder if the individual feels the need to rate the product a little higher after getting a deal. Anyway, i took a chance and bought them. These reviewers were right on. These blocks look and feel just like the lego's brand. They are exactly what i was looking for, and i'm excited for my son to start playing with them, so i can start stepping on them barefoot. ; ) ; )

Great stuff, grandkids were so happy to have all these extra blocks to play with. My wife said"they won't like them, they want the small boxes that have something they can make that they've seen in a movie or they can make a car or truck with, just like the picture on the box and the directions tell them to do". My reply to her is that playing with legos that way is not the way they were intended to be played with. It's not about taking 25 blocks and putting them together the way some paper tells them to do. These blocks were made to stimulate a childs imagination, make them think, try something, and if it doesn't work, try to adjust it or take it apart and start over, but don't give up on their idea. A childs imagination can go wild with this kind of "toy" as long as they don't run out of pieces to build with. That's part of the beauty of this kind of set. You just buy a couple sets and give your child some room and no rules. Let them go and see what they can create. Some may take awhile if they aren't used to this kind of freedom, but with encouragement and maybe a little adult help with the tough spots, you can sit back and watch your child as their imagination takes over and gets them thru to their masterpiece, whatever it may be. And that masterpiece doesn't have to follow any rules or look like something someone else made. If your child did it, that's all that matters. Take some pictures and let them start over on a new project that they build themselves from their imagination. That's what these blocks are for and what makes them so great.

The set was better then expected. My son has made more creative things then i thought was possible. Now he can build and play with it and make othe things without breaking down the one he just made.

- J. JacksonLong time lego fan, i bought this for my 13yr old son who has many sets. This was a good addition to his collection and allows his to expand his creations and let his mind run wild.

This is a big box of legos. Good variety of pieces. Does not include a big green base plate, so purchase that separately. Once you empty all the little plastic bags, the legos fill about 1/3 of the original box. Altogether the lego pieces in this set weigh about 4. 5 pounds. You can get used legos by the pound on ebay much cheaper but this is a decent deal for new bricks.
