Is a building plate necessary for using the beginner Duply sets? It always seems to be a separate purchase..

No, a building plate is not necessary since these are free standing Legos for table or floor. For carpeting I would suggest a piece of cardboard or the building plate. My 2-1/2 year old grandson loves these. I got the Lego table to go with the blocks to store the Legos in.Best of luck!Sandy

It is not really necessary until the child can build and put the blocks together on their own. I would say that once the child is about 19-20 months old, a Lego board and additional blocks are more fun for child and adult. I would recommend adding the zoo set as the animals are adorable.

Mine came with the set as advertised. I would go back to Amazon and reorder or let them deal with it. I would not pay for an incomplete set. I am sure you can get them to reorder. I would also count the tiles as well to make sure they are a complete set. Love our set only problem is be careful how you set the case on any surface. Note the hinges on the backside of the case. If you set the box down with the handle facing up the hinges will scratch if you slide or move the case.

Yes you do, and also you need the purchase Olympic adapters (3) for a few dollars so that the plates fit properly. 25lbs, 35lbs, or 45lb plates I'd recommend.

I do not think so. It comes with beautiful plates so do not know why you would want to use another plate.

Buy them separately, it be easier for you to go to a local store and buy few plates :-) and save money

They give you several "practice" plates... Technically, it makes one... But you can use those "practice plates" as the real one and just pay for an additional plate.

I would actually recommend getting a different track if you are looking to add on to it. This beginner set is different from the standard sets and while there are conversion kits available, they are a bit of a pain to use.If you've already purchased this one, here are the two add-ons we purchased and overall, they work pretty well:Scalextric 1:32 Start Converter Track PackScalextric 1:32 Track Extension Pack 4

Yes, everything you need to build the house is included. I think it came with two large plates.

I know NOTHING about mahjong, sorry. I bought this set for my Aunt for Christmas, because she said she wanted to learn, and I figured it was a good starter set. It did not come with racks/pushers, but the tiles themselves seemed to be very good quality.

These are for the younger kids duplos, for normal legos, u have to get the lego plates

It is only one plate. Obviously it's much more expensive (per piece) than it would be to buy a whole new set. I only bought it because I have a whole set like it and I had broken one plate.

Yes you have to purchase the plates separately,you can buy them individually or in a package set. You can choose beteen konad image plates or bundle monster image plates depending on the designs you want.

Do not but the base plates up against each other as the spacing will be wrong.There will be a small gap between the plates in order for the lego spacing to work out.The best way to do this is to attach the base plates together using the lego bricks prior to attaching to your table or flat surface

No. You'll need to buy them separately. Make sure you get an Olympic style set, they have the bigger center hole to fit the machine. I bought a nice 300 pound set from Dick's for a good price. It came with the bar that I don't use, but it was still cheaper to buy the set versus buying the plates individually.

Yes, you would need to just make another upside down v on the other end then take one side off (can use that wood in project) when assembling the structure. My personal opinion is to by the swings (belt or toddler) and then buy kit later when ready... see those flat almost triangle pieces green on bottom right that is one set for the v... you could use just regular flat steel plates from hardware store. If this kit is on sale for good deal then I would get it. Be prepared to spend close to $900- 1000 on wood alone. But our daughter loves it so much

It includes the tiles. It also includes a template card so you can make your own tiles if you want to have extras.

The stack weight plates are vinyl covered. The unit isn't tall enough to accept too many additional plates on the stack (you'll hit the top pulley). But there are hooks you can buy to add regular round plates in front of the stack, provided you're willing to remove the protective cover from the stack. Personally, I really like this unit overall.
