Crazy Aaron's Thinking Putty® - Tidal Wave - Super Magnetic Sensory Putty for Kids and Grown ups in a 4" Tin - Creative and Endless Fun, Stress Relief Therapy Toys, Never Dries Out - Made in USA

I bought three different colors from amazon and each has its own unique qualities. I have hypercolor twilight, super magnetic tital wave, and super illusions super oil slick. I think out of the three, the super illusions is my favorite to just play with and stare at. It's so fascinating and the constant shifting colors is fun. However, after a while, the super illusions causes my hands to feel sticky. I know it's not supposed to, but it does. It's been like that since I first got it out of the tin, with freshly washed and dried hands, so it's the putty doing it. The magnetic is fun to squish around some, too, but I enjoy just setting it down and letting it eat a magnet. It's fun to watch. You don't get as much magnetic putty per tin as the other colors, probably because it weighs more. Don't mix in your buckyballs/zen magnets. The little metal shards get pulled out by magnets and it's a pain to get them back off the zen magnets, since they scratch them up. It's easy to get the shards off bigger magnets. The hypercolor is my favorite to squish around when I need to concentrate (I have ADHD) because it isn't distracting and has a really good consistency to it. It also doesn't make my hands feel sticky. When I buy tins of these for my fellow grad student friends, I plan on getting the hypercolor varieties.

Exactly as advertised. Great fidget!!

This putty is thicker or stiffer than other Crazy Aaron’s putties. They will smooth out completely after a few hours when left alone. However this magnetic putty keeps all the shaping and fingerprints even after several days. I’m sure this is what leads to other reviews complaints about it not being very magnetic. The included magnet is a good size and quite strong. You can feel it when you close the tin or move it near metal objects. The thickness of the putty just keeps it from moving very quickly. I don’t know if it’s the iron filings that make it so stiff, but if it was softer like their other putties it would react to the magnet better. Overall, it’s a good putty and I love the color. It just needs some improvement to make the magnetic feature more impressive.

Love their products. So fun for all ages. Our fault, but my son will asleep holding it and it ruined his sheets and clothing. But we are buying more. My kids have all loved their putty for years.

It’s regular putty with iron filings mixed in. I kept breaking stress balls and they’d make a huge mess. Likewise, this is not something you want around fabric, it will ruin your clothes, sofa, sheets, etc. I keep it at my desk at work for stress relief. It’s very underwhelming as a “magnetic” putty. It’s only slightly ferrous. It is also a bit messier than Aaron’s other puttys. Turns my fingers blue. Tiny tins are next to impossible to open, only the big tins are reasonable to open.

Crazy putty Purchased this for my grandson. It was Exactly like the pictures

It breaks down in warm temperature. It gets all over your hands and it’s hard to get off. I think the skin absorbed the blue dye and magnetic elements of the putty. My son got hives and it even spread throughout his body. We had to go to Urgent Care and they gave him medicine he has to take for two weeks. Not worth the two days of exposure to this stuff.
