Hubelino Set orbital elements
Question about Hubelino Set orbital elements
1) How many balls are there now and how many curves with tunnels? Because pictures 4, 6 and 10 show different versions of the kits: Once there are 12 balls and once there are "only" 4? Have the product photos been mixed up with the "Maxi" version? 2) How big/small are the balls and can 14-month-old "babies" also play with them, as our daughter already loves Duplo now? Thank you for a short feedback =) (because in my opinion this set has the best price-performance ratio, because I usually don't need normal blocks and plates when I already have other Duplo!)
Helpful answer
1) The pictures are indeed confusing. However, it is not a confusion with the Maxi set, as both pictures show 128 pieces, whereas the Maxi set has over 200. I rather think that there is an old and a new version of this set. The picture with 4 balls matches the one on the official Hubelino website, so I assume that this version is correct. But unfortunately I can't guarantee it.
2) The balls have a diameter of 2.45cm, so they are about 7mm smaller than a 2x2 Duplo brick. For a 14-month-old baby, the ball should be big enough not to be swallowed. But of course you should still be attentive.
3) The basic and maxi sets are still worth considering, as they have the extra long bricks (8 studs), which are quite helpful when you want to build bigger tracks ;-) But you can also build up the range over a longer period of time with different sets.
