This is just so cool...there are so many variations for the aspiring architect, and the inclusion of the coloured panels offers a diversity of delectable permutation to keep the whole family going for blommin hours!

So robust too - my 5 year old couldn't break any of these bit'n'pieces no matter how hard she tried! The magnetic properties are flippin awesome - I mean you sometimes just cant pull the parts - well - apart! We had loads of fun trying to get the magnetic repel parts to join together! We fell about lauging for eons as we all had a crack!!

This, ladies and gentlemen, is to be utterly recommended - part from the playstation for a minute, tear yourself away from the TV and enjoy some real fun family frivolity - this is just a MUST!!!

Brilliant toy for absolutely all ages 6+ Posted 04 April 2005
This is a fabulous creation - bags more fun than modern lego and plastic meccano. My ten year old son was introduced to Geomag when he was in hospital recovering from an operation and it was a lifesaver - really perked him up and got him interested in creating things. I have just bought this set for him for his birthday and he has played with it for hours - the playstation games are still in their boxes. All the family have been tinkering - there are many patterns and shapes to be made and much fun to be had with the magnets. The accompanying booklet is really informative too. Methinks this is going to be the start of a big collection.

Great for all- also for budding engineers and creative types Posted 23 February 2005
The panels set realises some extra potential in Geomag - being able to create surfaces. So an abstract multi-faceted shape can become a geometric "solid". Also the panels give extra stability to some inherently unstable conditions such as a basic square, massively increasing construction potential.

Look at the official web site for loads of inspiration www.geomagsa.com

I think this adds so much to Geomag it gets a five star for educational value too.

A repeated comment from my other review:

There is a caveat. It's expensive! But please, go for the real thing. Buy a small set of Geomag rather than a larger set of fakes from China or somewhere. You won't regret it since Geomag has stronger magnets and is much better made.
