 New Material is Much More DurableJun 13, 2011
By C. Macauley
"cmacauley"
Mattel evidently listened to customer complaints and is now making the pieces out of a softer, rubberized plastic. Arms and other appendages bend, don't break. Reproduction of the figures in the film is fairly accurate, although the board is a bit too small for these pieces, making it hard to move without knocking them over.
The great thing about this is that it increased my son's enthusiasm for learning how to play chess. The game instructions are brief but clearly written for those who don't know the rules. Not a bad investment for the price.

 very breakable...Jan 28, 2011
By Jason C. Fiske
"jcfiske"
We got this chess set yesterday, and Ive already had to glue 3 pieces !...
The set is beautiful and looks like the set from the movie. But if you drop a piece, like
kids (and adults) will do,- your elbow knocks one off the table, or a piece falls off when you are carrying the board
across the room, they shatter on the floor! I was hoping it would have been more durable. My son is 6, and has really
tried to be so careful with it because he loves it.
it is too bad!

 Looks good - if you are a fan of HPOct 31, 2010
By I. Pustilnik
Looks great. The color of the plastic is like real granite. The pieces are hollow and therefore a bit light but I could use some drywall spackling paste or something to put inside them - they are open on the bottom and that would easily help and make them "weigh real."

wonderful gameSep 02, 2011
By MC
after reading many reviews stating that the game pieces easily broke I was hesitant in ordering but I went ahead and got the game anyway because of such a great price. I am glad I did! The pieces are very durable and have never broken even after many times of playing chess. My husband and sons love this game! I recomend this game to anyone who wants a great wizard chess set.

 Beware pieces break extremely easilyDec 28, 2010
By Louise
Great idea, great toy. My 8yr old son loves this but unfortunately the pieces are made of a very soft material that chips and breaks. We were gluing pieces back together the first day he owned it. Very disappointed in the quality esp. for the price. Great idea but the quality needs major improvement, never seen something fall apart so fast.
