Fun Addition to Magnetic Tiles Toy Box; a Great Value
PRO+: 71ish pieces (that's my count; check the description details or manufacturer information), which is enough pieces to simultaneously create the facades of all three buildings and all three vehicles (whether you have enough tiles to simultaneously create the buildings and vehicles is a different question; you'll need way more than 71 tiles). Kudos to the manufacturer for producing the magnetic backing graphics this way (single-sided). The magnetic backing pieces, while not super-strong, are strong enough to adhere well to tiles, though it would be nice if the magnetic power of the backing was stronger. The instructions are not step-by-step, but that isn't really necessary; rather, a nice laminated set of instructions (see image) shows you which tiles you will need and how to use the tiles to create the buildings and vehicles. The backing graphics appear vibrant and of a good quality. Great value (at the time of this writing).CON-: The "play mats" for the buildings 1. are not made of a durable material (the instructions are more durable), 2. had to be folded to fit in the box, and so do not sit flat (but the weight of the tiles will eventually hold them down), and 3. include one mat for the police station but a double-sided mat for the hospital/school (so you will only have access to one of those mats at a time). Ultimately, this is a minor gripe to me, as we use a baseplate (and not the mats) anyway. The mats are NOT magnetic (this was clear to me, but some consumers might mistakenly believe they are).NEUTRAL: This pack contains ONLY the magnetic backing/graphics (and does not come with any tiles); the instructions (see image) details which tiles (and how many) you will need to construct each set. Common/basic shapes will work fine for the buildings (with some minor creative substitutions), but the L-shaped and half-square pieces are necessary to make the vehicles look legitimate. I included a few magnetic figures (and a couple other popular figures) for scale.OVERALL: Littles (2 & 4) love playing with them. Great value that adds value to a toy of which we already have a stockpile.FUN NOTE: The two hospital entrance tiles kind of look like barred prison cell doors, so that quickly became their primary use.

Great addition for magnet tile sets
So you will need a good amount of tiles and the vehicle base for these. If you have a magnet tile fan who has several sets it is worth the money as an add on. My kids have spent days playing with them and it appears it is good quality. I like that it goes on top of tiles you have rather than adding in another tile set.

Great idea
I got them for my daughter wither her blocks for Christmas. They are not super strong. They can't stick to the fridge or anything. But they do stick to the blocks. They are thin so I wouldn't give them to a toddler. But they do make the blocks more fun.

Awesome addition to open ended play
Bought these for my almost 3 year old for his magnetic tiles. The illustrations are great. They stick to the tiles magnetically with the perfect amount of force. They stick well enough that they don't just fall off but they are also easy to pull off when you want them.

Requires uniquely shaped tiles!
As many others have stated, the magnets come a little bit warped, but that is easily fixed by simply bending the magnets back the other way. Ours stick fine without falling off. My main problem is that in order to build all of the buildings and cars as shown, it requires uniquely shaped tiles that do not come with basic Picasso tiles sets. We already have many Picasso tiles, so I just bought these magnets as opposed to the set that comes with the magnets AND tiles. Upon closer inspection, I realized that I need small rectangular tiles and a couple of other oddly shaped tiles (such as L-shaped tiles) to build the buildings and cars as shown.

Work great with magnet tiles.
I have purchased these twice. I purchased for Christmas for two of my grandsons , then purchased again for my house.

NOT full magnets
I bought these thinking they were full magnets you could put together. THEY ARE NOT FULL MAGNETS. They are thin magnetic paper that attaches to the original magnets. And the buildings are so large you would need a set of a hundred plus unique pieces to actually make any of them. I wish that had been clearer on the listing. We can’t even use most of them because of the base magnets they require.
