can you interchange magformers with magna tiles?

I haven't purchased Magna Tiles but I assume all magnets can work together somehow. My grandsons love building them up a metal fence post, making wonderful constructions. I is one of their very favorite toys

No you can't. They don't work together at all. We had a set of Magna Tiles and a set of Magformers and we ended up selling the Manga Tiles and buying more Magformers because they were 100% incompatible.

We have both the magformers and the magnatiles, while the pieces will stick together because they both have magnets, I don't think you can build anything using them together.

Yes. Go to Menu and then to the Gear icon & under 1 will be "Grid Line". Select it & choose the type of grid you want.

The two pieces with the wheels have the magformer identification. None of the magnets do.

My grandson prefers magformers. He had 2 sets a few years ago and wanted another for his 10th birthday so I got him the 62 piece designer set for building construction. It was an excellent price on Amazon. I was surprised that he was still interested in them, but he is - loves to build and create his own designs with them. The magformers and magnatiles are not interchangeable, so I think it is best to stick with one and just add to it.

Yes on the miniatures. No on the map tiles. The map tiles are not in scale with the miniatures. So, you couldn't, for example, use them with game tiles designed for D&D; games (i.e., Castle Ravenloft, Legend of Drizzt, etc.)

Well, it's the only Magformers set I have, so I cannot be sure what type these are. They are not heavy but the magnets are strong. I believe, these are the thinner ones.

I am not familiar with magnatiles. My grandson loves Magformers and builds all kinds of amazing objects. I have at least 3 sets that he can combine to make bigger and better things. The wheels in the one set are a favorite. He just got a clear set with LED lights for Christmas that he'll keep at his house. These are one of the toys that he plays with whenever he comes to visit.

Hi, I don't know what Magna Tiles/Picasso Tiles. Yes, magnets lineup. Very powerful magnets. We are happy. I suggest to check out the YOUTUBE for all the combinations you can do with Magformers. I made my decisions after I saw it on the Youtube. I hope it helps. Myra

Yes, the triangles and squares are the same size as in the other Magformer sets. The two new hexagon shapes are larger but they all work well together.

I think they are pretty much the same. I have girls and boys, so I went with Magformers because we like the sets that have wheels and I couldn't find that with magna tiles, though maybe they make them now, I'm not sure. The sets are small, but if you get a few and add them together, they are like magic. My parents just gave a big set to them for Christmas because no matter how many we get, they keep building bigger creations and want more. My kids (ages 3 - 10) love them and when friends come, they usually run right for the Magformers.

Yes, these were designed to be interchangeable. Of course, some quests require cave tiles or cards specific to one game or another. But monsters and heroes are easily interchangeable.

The clear and solid Magna tiles are the same, we have both. However, this set of solid tiles is the only one with the few rounded pieces and the car base. Regardless of color, all the tiles work together the same.

They are very similar. As far as I can tell, they are the same size and mostly the same colors. We've had them for one day and every piece is compatible with Magna Tiles. We have Magna Tiles and Metro Mags and they work just fine together.

Sorry we have no magnatiles, but these attach to each other by magnets, they also attach to anything which is metallic in nature.

Soorry, I bought this as a gift for my grandson who already had had magformers before. I thought they were consistent with his other ones. I hope someone can steer you right.
