There was a whole section of parts that were missing from this kit.Uberstix Uberarc 3200 Architectural Series The top section was gone and we didnt realize this until we built the whole tall tower. We got creative and made up a new top just using the "quarks". but after building for days with 3100 plus pieces that were all the same except for getting to switch from one color quark to the other color quark, we were looking forward to the top being different. But the parts were not there. Left a bad taste in my mouth, so to speak, for the amount of money that we paid for this.

Uberstix are awesome. I bought them for a high school architecture project. The kids love them. They are not
really for beginners. You have to think outside the box to use them to there full potential but they are incredibly fun!!
