Editorial Review
What goes up must come down! With the Transparent Marble Run, kids will erect tubes, chutes, bridges, and spinning wheels and send nine swirled marbles one after another through the structure, all the while learning some simple principles of physics. Many designs are possible with the transparent and pliable blue, yellow, and pink tubes. The enclosed marbles can't jump the track and, at the end of the run, they come to rest neatly in a tray. When playtime is over, all the pieces fit in a durable plastic box. --Lynne Sampson

Customer Reviews

We have enjoyed this Marble Run, but changes are needed.
I purchased this marble run after looking at about 30 others. I liked that it was transparent and had many pcs that looked interesting and fun. My daughters are 3 1/2 and 1 1/2 and they both really enjoy using it. The clear pcs make for extra excitement while the marbles run.
The problem is that there is only ONE bottom pc that allows the marbles to fall through. Otherwise all the marbles get stuck at the end in a blue end pc that has no hole.
Also the marbles are really small (and maybe all marble runs have small marbles) but I don't even know where to get some extra marbles in case we lose some, which we will :)
I am still happy I purchased this marble run but it does need some modification by the manufacturer.

Marble Madness Fun
Really fun toy - my 4 yr old girl loved it (although it has been only 2 weeks since we got it).
Definitely needs some adult supervision as the parts are a little hard to connect.
It really needs to be on a table top or hard floor to keep its balance.
I think this transparent version is great because you see the ball - opaque ones would
only allow you to see the ball going in and at the end, coming out.
The construction seems durable enough - there is a slight stretch in the plastic.
You could twist it without breaking. Have fun!

Excellent fun
This is such a good toy for constructive play. It gets children thinking in three dimentions and a bit of physics (gravity) thrown in. All the children I have gotten it for will spend time trying to make the marbles go where they want. It would be nice to have larger pictures of the models shown on the box, sometimes it is hard to see which way to turn the channel pieces, but we just "try it out" and the children like that too. The holder for the wheel is fragile, we broke one the first time we were using it. It is excellent fun.
