Setting: Office
The route to this toy was via my job as an IT contractor. I saw the many products lining up around office cubes and I definitely wanted to make the same sort of thing. Glad to have them (hard to find on the web).

Pixel Blocks are awesome! I love building toys so they were a perfect addition to my collection. I gave them 4 out of 5 stars because they work well for the purpose I bought them to make 2D structures. I have attempted to make some small 3D structures but they are extremely hard to get apart.
The reason why they didn't get the last star is because when they arrived the colors were all mixed up and it took me a while to sort them out before using them.

These are a neat idea. Definitely for someone who is ready to work with small pieces and either likes following hard directions or is very inventive. We tried to make one of the designs in the book and I (not an engineer, but 48 years old) couldn't do it! One of the trays was sorted by color and the other tray was all mixed up - not sure why that was. This does seem really great for people with natural engineering or design brains. Our child loves to use this kind of thing, but he likes to build houses and animals that he can play with. He's almost 7. We'll bring them out again at his b-day party and see if we can have a pixel block party and break the barrier.

My 10 year old spends hours creating designs with his pixel blocks. This is the second set we've ordered because he used up the first set, and didn't want to dismantle his previous creations! They have a great 3D effect that Legos don't. I'd rather see him playing with these than video games.
