Beware - although there is no mention of this fact anywhere on the packaging(or on Amazon), at least 3/4 of the "521 Piece Value(?) Tub" consists of Micro K'NEX - So tiny they can be seen, but not picked up. Save your money - go to the store and find something properly labeled.

Product is only half standard sized pieces. The other half are smaller and are only compatible with the couple of special adapters that are included. Product description says nothing about there being two sizes of incompatible pieces. Buyer beware!
We have been enjoying both sizes of K'nex regardless of the description misunderstanding, and might consider buying k'nex again. They had excellent customer service when we contacted them directly.

Bought these for my kids for Christmas because we have always wanted to try them and they were on sale for $15 for this 521 count set. They enjoy tinkering around with them but, the huge plastic bin is overkill for such small items. The bin comes with a quart size bag of K'Nex inside and when you open the bag and pour them into the bin.....the pieces are SO small that the 521 pieces don't even cover up the bottom of the bin. I'm assuming there are 521 pieces (as I have not sat and counted them) but they sure don't look like 521 to me. I will probably put the pieces in a different container or quart zip-lock bag and use the bin for something else or throw it away because it is just simply too much bin for these pieces. Overall, I'm glad I only paid $15 for this set and still think that was a bit much for the amount of K'Nex included. 521 pieces sounds like a lot but really, it's not with these things.
