Expand That is what we have done. We substituted the balls given for marbles. The very slightly flat spot on the plastic balls can impede the motion of the ball.

I like the bridge in the top right. Also important to note is that he has not modified the Maze to give it extra tilt - he obviously thinks the available tilt is good enough. 1 Quote

Sharkbait Posted April 15, 2016 Posted April 15, 2016 I finally tried one out in the store yesterday as I haven't built mine yet. It is incredible how frustrating a toy meant for pleasure can be. 1 Quote

Popular Post nolanfan34 Posted April 17, 2016 Popular Post Posted April 17, 2016 We built this set over the weekend. I think it's a big winner. Really genius that they selected it. My son has spend the whole weekend off and on building new mazes. It just fits the Lego mindset so brilliantly. Then the little bastard made a covered maze where you can only see the start and finish spots. That is frustrating let me tell you. 16 Quote

He's 7, so it wasn't too intricate from the outside, but I was surprised how hard it was to tell where the dang ball was on a basic maze when it was covered. 1 Quote

Quacs Posted April 18, 2016 Posted April 18, 2016 I can't wait to get mine and MOC up a new maze design. Thinking about a sports theme or a Batman theme. This is a briliant idea for a Lego model. Quote
