3 out of 5 stars Great for building   December 28, 2007

Kids love the smaller plates and can connect them with legos to buiild roads. Biggest one's corner was bent slightly whenit arrived and it seems more flimsy (probably b/c of large size)than the others.
Overall, nice product more $ than I thought it was worth though. In hindsight, I might have bought plates individually in store for less $ than the set online.



3 out of 5 stars as advertised, but thinner than expected   December 27, 2007

these plates are as they are advertised, but they also are a bit thinner than I expected, which makes them harder to use on carpet or soft surface.

the company put a picture of the actual product on the outside of the package -- a really dumb idea when ordering a TOY! luckily my son didn't see it before I hid it.



4 out of 5 stars Foundation for imaginative play   December 24, 2007

Recommended to stretch your existing Lego investment, especially for children who set up characters and scenarios with action based on land or water.

The extra land (and water, the blue pieces) helps my child set up complex and imaginative scenarios and fix them in place, then move different pieces forward and around. He's a WWII buff, and orderly lines of vehicles and people are important in his play. Watch your own kids' play before deciding -- another child, by contrast, built spaceships for years, and never asked for or needed any land in over ten years of lego-play. His creations swooped through the air.

The one baseplate we already had (which could have been 10 or more years old) was a thicker plastic, these are a bit thin and could easily be cracked by carelessly stepping on them.

It's a subtle gift, kids don't really know you can get extra parts like these, they are focused on the big pictures on the boxes they see at the stores. It was well-received and the pieces are in constant use.
