Throughout the year, MAGZ, a construction toy by Progressive Trading Co., has topped specialty retailers’ lists as a best seller. Their new construction set, MAGZ-X, features x-shaped pieces with magnets on all four corners, in additional to the traditional sticks and balls. This hands-on toy fosters imagination and creativity as well as enhances a child’s understanding of shapes and geometry. MAGZ-X come in sets of 42, 74 and 106 pieces.

Progressive Trading Inc. introduces a colorful addition to their award-winning MAGZ-X magnetic construction sets. Now, the popular MAGZ-X comes in an array of fluorescent glow-in-the-dark colors. MAGZ-X is a construction toy with innovative X-shaped pieces that expand the variation in the types of geometric shapes it can construct. Each set comes with magnetic bars, steel balls, and X-shaped pieces that either repel or attract each other depending on the positioning of the balls. They can also be used in the classroom as educational aids for chemistry and geometry. Prices vary depending on package size, ranging from 42 to 108 piece sets.

Glow Magz-X is the only fluorescent, glow-in-the-dark magnetic construction set featuring the exclusive x-shapes. Build it, then shut off the lights and admire your creation! "Charge" their colors up in the sun for best effect. Available in two sizes.

Integrating the standard MAGZ bar with an innovative magnet-infused plate design, the new WEBZ is a construction piece that enables models of versatility and beauty. True to its name, WEBZ is a webbed bar with four different types of "arms." Each package contains regular straight bars, 3-armed, 4-armed, and 5-armed plates that allow builders to have much more flexibility with curves, angles, and overall structure stability. Each piece is crafted in transparent jewel-tones, the "webbed" design giving the pieces visual appeal as well as tactile. The contrast between the smooth and brushed surfaces of each WEBZ piece makes it as addictive to build with as to handle. WEBZ makes it possible to construct filled structures, making structures seem bigger, fuller & more realistic. WEBZ comes in 54- and 108- piece set.

The possibilities are limitless with the traditional MAGZ bar, so just imagine the boundless capabilities of an adjustable MAGZ bar! SKROOZ is a revolution in magnetic construction toys and in the MAGZ family itself. The bars come in two different sizes: 1" and 1 1/4" that can be adjusted to 1 1/2" and 2", respectively, by a simple twist of the bar. Perfect for beginners or advanced sculptors, the adjustment ability of the bar makes it easy to create intricate bends, curves, accents or just broad angles and structures. SKROOZ comes in three primary color sizes (42, 84, and 168 pieces) and in a metallic set with 84 pieces.
