Is this set enough to be used on its own, or should I purchase a big box of cubes to go with it?

It had enough cubes in it for my 7 year old with a page of instructions to help build it in one way to know how all the stunt pieces could be used. If you're buying for multiple children and sharing is easier said than done than maybe another set would be a good idea. This set stood around 2 feet high and almost the same width. Hope this opinion was helpful.

It is enough to build the design that is pictured on the box and comes with instructions.

As I said in my review "Considering what actually came in the box; it is not at all worth $79.95." Beside the fact that it's frustrating for kids, as it falls apart. After about 30 minutes of play the kids were done with it and haven't taken it out to play since. Total waste of money.

No, it comes with it's own cubes. No need to buy more unless you want an even larger set.

If this is the Q-BaMaze 2.0 Mega Stunt set, then by all means it is definately enough pieces to make all kinds of various marble mazes. I gave it to my 9 yr. old grand daughter last christmas and each time she makes a marble maze it turns out different. She absolutely loved it!

I doubt it. The price is reasonable enough for the 5 pieces. I would recommend buying another complete set. You don't take everything to work, do you?

I believe the cubes are 1", which is too small. The larger problem is the size of the box. It's too tight a fit to permit manipulating the cubes. The cubes have to be removed from the box and used on a table- an impossible situation. (I ending up giving away the set I had purchased from Amazon.)By the way, the original Color Cubes as made by Playskool were about 1 and 3/16 inches, as a previous respondent stated, and are evidently not available any longer - not even online, as I've searched many times. You or your husband would do well to make your own cubes, which you would then sand very well and paint with non-toxic colors of your choice. Good luck!

Yes you can make individual cubes or connect them in any configuration you want

Yes this can be used as a track set on its own. My grandchild has used it and it worked very well for him, adding to his creativity in setting up the tracks

There aren't empty holes, but it's a big case and there is room for more stuff if you aren't concerned about it being tidy. The flatter pieces lined up in the foam on the lid can be "stacked" three high which will accommodate some of your beginner set. Actually we have a beginner set too but I haven't tried to combine them in the case yet. Maybe after my son uses it a while we can do that. He's picky about how his stuff is organized.

I should let my son answer but I would say if that's a negative issue, no. He's very pleased, he's gotten his time down to 14 seconds. You can adjust the cube, he has taken it apart and put it back together and it did not effect the performance. He's virtually been using it constantly since we got it. I just bought him a new style puzzle to occupy and increase his capacity.

I would definitly order from amazon because this set is higher offline. Plus you have to buy stuff seperately. Its cheaper here and u can add pieces that you not be able to buy in the store.

I would say yes. Some of the pieces are pretty big so if you broke them up you should be good. I thought there was a very good amount in the bag. We were pleased.

Absolutely! You can do so much with the 32 piece set. The larger sets you can obviously build bigger and taller but the 32 pieces is definitely a good set if you aren't sure if you will like them as they are pricy (worth it IMO). Hope this helps!

The size of the cube is comparable to a die. You get many sets of dice shaped cubes out of these. Contingent on what you need them for they're either too small or perfect. :)

I'd say it is a good size set. With the instructions you can build several cool projects - but only one at a time as most or all the supplied pieces are needed for each project. Don't lost any pieces either as there are no extras.

You can assemble these any way you want - although there may not be enough parts to have two "cubes" with full backs. One should check the number of squares included. We made a rabbit cage with ours.

Yes, absolutely. And the trays (and cubes) are a bit small so i would recommend getting a few of them.

Yes the box is a good starter set and lovetoyes i did buy the by 2 building plates makes it easier for them to build on. If fact i'm going to get 2 more.

You definitely need the pieces. Each differently colored piece is really several sphere shapes that are attached to each other. They could get lost, but store securely in the kanoodle case when not in use.

I'm an adult and I love to play with my son's set. You can use it with wooden blocks and other items from around the house (like plastic funnels, etc.); so keep that in mind. And to C. Bryson, try building it up higher with blocks. I would suggest buying 2 sets, if you can afford it; maybe even 3. The more sets, the larger you can build your run, and use blocks or other toys/household items to create ramps, etc.
