But if you can think of a way to use both sets together where all the gears are mounted to their native sets, then I think you could probably get them to turn each other. The teeth are not a tight fit but it seems like it would work, more or less. But like, are they made to work together, no, it doesn't look like it. **Q: Would this be too advanced for a 5 yesr olds birthday? His mom asked for building and block sets** A: No, My five-year-olds love to play with this in my classroom. They get creative as they try to build and rarely follow any directions in trying to build it. **Q: Are these compatible with construx? Thanks** A: Can’t answer that but probably not ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well made, open-ended building set! *by P***Y on December 8, 2025* My 5-year old loves this building set.

So many educational concepts are taught through STEM, and my boys have a lot of fun with this toy too! The cards are great to show the boys how to build various building like a bridge, a skyscraper, an elevator, etc. Then, they can expand on those ideas and change them or make them differently. On top of that, there is a creative element where the pieces can be used to create a variety of buildings.
