excellent starter kit
By Tim Phillips
This is a nice little starter kit if you think a kid might like bricks and don't want to spend a lot of money if it is just a phase. There is a nice variety of parts, they fit together well enough and the instruction booklet offers a variety of predesigned ideas to get kids started. The portable case is also nice (I loaned a friend one of these sets and his 6 year old girl loves to build out of the case while they are taking long car rides). As an aside, the wheels in this set are about the sharpest looking I've ever seen in brick. I like this set because it is not very specific. You can build a lot of different things from the pieces in the box and there are not a lot of "big pieces" that are only useful for building one particular thing.

By MattthewsMom
I've been playing with Legos since they were introduced back in the 60's. My great-grandmother would go on trips to Denmark and bring us back Legos. My son is now 6 1/2, and has had Primos (no longer available), Duplos and the original-sized Legos. I have always looked at the Mega Bloks as a 'cheap knock off' of the original. Over the past year or so, I've started to notice more of the smaller-sized blocks in the Mega Bloks product line, and have had my curiousity sparked by some of the really neat models I'd seen, and at reasonable prices. My son has tens of thousands of Lego pieces (I consider them highly educational in many areas) and he had seen some of the Mega Bloks sets. We bought him this ProBuilder 10 set, and I have been very impressed with the quality and similarity of the bricks. I have not tried interchanging them with the Lego bricks, yet. He is still having fun building the items in the books, but has already started making ad hoc items as well. There are a lot of the very very small pieces in this set -- it says for ages 5 and up...I think that a lot of the teeny pieces might be hard for a 5-yr old to manipulate. Most of the pieces are not the typical 'rectangular brick' shape, but that's good because in the real world, things aren't always so 'square'. A few of the smaller piecs were a little 'off' in the quality control area. One thing we do is to sort the pieces into like piles (to help find the one we're looking for) and stack them up. I noticed that several were not 'on square' or had places where they had been severed from the mold and had some rough edges. Overall, the quality was quite good. We love the case -- though we've added a few ziploc bags to keep the teeny little one-dot pieces from spilling everywhere. The case is big enough to hold all of the bricks plus some for things that are alrady built and not ready to be dismantled or things that are in-progress. The directions are better than Lego's. The instruction books (2 of them!) that came with how to build the 10 items shown on the box. Not only does it show the progressive build of the model with the last step's pieces turned transparent, it also shows a picture of each piece in that step and how many are needed. For kids just starting into this size brick, it is quite helpful. Overall, even though I've been a devoted Lego buyer and fan for more than 30 years, Mega Bloks has finally produced a truly competitive product.
