Are the dominos plastic or ceramic? I used ceramic before & they stand up very well. Worried that if plastic it may be too light and easily fall over.

I believe that they are plastic. I use a tray but I have a friend who does not use a tray and the dominoes stand up well.

We're not sure if they are ceramic, but they are quite heavy and thick enough to stand up, even when handled by a seven year old.

They are thick plastic or ceramic. We play a lot and never have a problem with them falling over. We love the suitcase type case!

They are ceramic very durable. I have bought sets for 3 of my grandchildren, two sets for me, and a set for a senior center. Of course of different denominations. I like the 12 tile count but some prefer the 9 for a shorter game. I love this game and bought the plastic trains for markers.

It's not ceramic. It's made out of some kind of plastic. It definitely stands up to the heat of cooking though.

Hi Linda. These are plastic, not porcelain. However, they are a dense plastic with a minute amount of give; not a cheap brittle plastic.

Yes, they are plastic and my son loves them but two of the 4 I bought him no longer works because they are pretty fragile. You cannot toss them hard at all,if you do they will stop working. As long as you are gentle they are a cool toy to have.

I had one that broke, if you drop them in a hard ceramic floor yes they will break, they are hard plastic. There big enough to put plenty of food, there about 14 inches long and 6 inches wide about 2 inches deep, I was able to glue it back and cove with plastic wrap and it works fine, I have feed over 50 people with tier buffet in one single party.

I took out the lightbulb and checked. It's certainly not plastic. I'd guess it was ceramic because it seems too coarse to be porcelain.

sort of like pottery, the bottom edges are rough - not a hard plastic, they will probably break if dropped, I do love the bright colors, this is a very festive set :)

Ceramic--they look great, but would probably chip easily. I love mine, but am very careful with them.

Plastic is better since it much lighter and not brittle. It would be extremely difficult to achieve this complex geometry with ceramic.

Hi. The dominoes are more like 5/16" thick. Right in between those measurements. I don't if there is a standard thickness but they are a nice set of dominoes.

I'm gonna go with plastic. They are very cheap and bounce sideways. I bought them as toys for my ferret. For the price, don't expect much.

They are plastic, not super cheap plastic but lightweight. We used them often and have not had any problems with them tipping.

I use mine for lettuce all the time and it does seem to keep better. I do believe that they are all ceramic.

These tiles are ENGRAVED, not as thick as Dominoes, but just right. They are 1 1/2" long and 1" wide, their thickness is less than 1/4" but they are EXTREMELY EASY to pick up, unlike their plastic painted counterparts. This game is used by 3 people who have arthritic fingers and problems with the "feeling" in their fingertips and two people who have vision problems. We ALL are happy with these tiles! I hope this helps.

Pretty certain they are plastic, I can't check as they are all inside a lighting project but I am certain they were not ceramic. However, they work great and I am very happy with them.

Yep - they are plastic! I would add that they are a sturdy plastic, probably crack-resistant. My kiddos have dropped them to the floor several times and they did not split or break.
