Editorial Review

Of course, the pictures of various Simpsons characters in place of traditional dots is the main draw for these dominoes, but our favorite thing is their impressive heft. Made of heavy-duty ceramic, the dominoes make a satisfying, authoritative clack when placed on a hard surface. The set is described on the box as "super-sized" but they're really only slightly larger than standard dominoes. There are a total of 28 pieces--the standard number for most domino games--and the correct number of doublets (dominoes with the same picture on each side). The thick tin box is also a nice bonus. It's like a slimmer version of those old metal lunchboxes, but imprinted with Simpsons art and witticisms. Unfortunately, the box seems to have not been designed specifically for the dominoes, which rattle around once they have been removed from the plastic bags that hold them in place initially. Still, the set is overall, as Mr. Burns would say, "Excellent!" --David Stoesz

Product Description

Play the classic game of dominoes with America's favorite animated family, The Simpsons. These 28 super-sized dominoes feature Simpsons characters on them instead of dots, so you have to match Homer with Homer, Marge with Marge and so on. Comes in a colorfully decorated metal Simpsons lunchbox.

This review is from: Simpson Dominoes (Toy)

Playing dominoes with Simpson's characters instead of dots is a lot of fun. The pieces themselves are heavy ceramic, and feel quite durable. The pictures on the dominoes though are already starting to wear off in a few places, after a few months of use. I think this would be better kept as Simpsons memorbilia instead of a game to play.
