How good is the raito of the different sizes? Other reviewers stated a large amount of the smallest pegs. Is it more even now?

It wasn't exactly even. I felt like I had a good assortment of sizes for what I wanted to do with them, but there were more small pieces than any one other style. Didn't bother me and I would order them again.

I found them on Amazon too....they are $5.00. I just typed in Chinese Checkers pegs. Unfortunately some of them are a little too big but when I need to use one I will carve it down a little. The pegs are nice an sturdy though.....I just wish they were a little smaller on the bottom.

my husband put it together...it took a bit a time...but its worth it! I think it took him an evening after work to put it together.Putting the stickers on took the most time! We have two of them...We had another kind of perego riding toy...and we returned it!This one is a bit more expensive but we felt it was a bit sturdier... Hope that answers your question.

The pegs are very easy to move, either with the hammer or with a small hand. The rocker arm that holds them in place allows the toy to function with very little friction on the pegs. Our 12 month old grandson has no problem making them move by just pushing on them with his hand, and he enjoys playing with the toy.

I think it moves good.. Maybe not as bouncy as my jumperoo. If you are looking for a more bouncy one id recommend the jumperoo from fisherprice. This is great for moving around in there and lots of toys to play with. We used it very little though in comparison to our jumperoo. Hope that helps :)

The ones provided are not weirdly small. They are a common marble on the smaller side, if that makes sense. It comes with about 14 marbles, I think. It does not layout different track styles in a booklet. You don't really need one, the possibilities are endless. I promise you will be fine. I think you should buy the one box but know that it is way cooler with two. So if you see the love for it get ready to buy another box! We still love this toy.

One peg is very thin (flute, piccolo, Eb clarinet). The other 2 are standard size (Bb, A Clarinet). I am guessing a couple of trumpets could go on the larger pegs.

We just played this today! Was given to my brother in law for Christmas and he is very happy with it. The board is slicker than a wooden one but for the price and/or if you need one you can transport, it is great! Hope that helps.

This is an awesome chewie, not quite perfect for SW ANH as his fur isnt as slicked back as the early bird special version but you've got to be really particular to notice that and to let it bother you. (The detail on his "coat" is more appropriate for ROTJ). Other than that the only other potentially negative thing is that (to my recollection) this version does not come with peg holes. He doesnt really need them though, his feet are fairly large and therefore he stands sturdily enough. Check out this link for some other details http://www.rebelscum.com/otc-vchewbacca.asp

Probably because I have yet to see Cowboy Studio produce much of anything "fancy" much less sturdy beyond a light stand. They're also not very well known for producing products that are easy (or rapid) to put together with little headache. The Westcott series of Rapid Boxes do what they say they do. I have both the the Octagon and the Strip Box, and they both are fully set up and ready to go in under 2 mins, and I can rest assured they will retain their shape and stand the test of time unlike the past products I've gotten from Cowbody Studio, which are at best cheap knock-offs of the real deal. It's up to you, though. You can always return if you're not happy with them, but I've had mine now for over a year in the case of the Octabox and remain thoroughly pleased with its performance.

It's a great action figure, lots of accessories and articulaion. However I would suggest the 3" figures if you are buying for a child, less small pieces and more options for play.

There is Takara version(TG-23), and a Hasbro Version. They're both the same size, but most people will tell you the takara version is the better one.

Hi Patdownsouth! Thanks - I did end up buying it and am quite happy with it. You're right, there are some major errors with some of the recipe (check out that water content for the 1lb raisin bread) and I'm still looking for a really good whole wheat recipe with seeds/nuts. The two paddles do work well. Mine does have three settings (1-1.5lb, 2lb, and 2.5lb) and it beeps in the middle of the cycle (which is not in the manual, and I need to look next time it does to figure out where in the cycle it is) and I assume that's for adding nuts/seeds/fruit. It is definitely much better than my 14 year old Zo! Hi Patdownsouth! Thanks - I did end up buying it and am quite happy with it.

I purchased the Topeak rack, which technically has all of its own accessories, but you don't need to purchase them. I figure I can upgrade later if I want. I like the rack because it is very sturdy. This basket really does fit any rack, but I love how large it is. Because it is so large, purchase a bigger bungee net. I purchased the suggested one & it's VERY tight. I also like this basket because, as a plus sized rider, I have a little hang over with my rear & the basket does not get in the way. Hope that helps. Anyway, go with the Topeak.

I have not paid attention to how many pieces I put on the side boards at a time, however each side board is about half the size of the main board and should easily fit 500 pieces. I have not had any problems with running out of room while sorting or putting together any puzzles. So far since receiving the porta puzzle I have completed 7 puzzles. In short, although I have not directly counted yes they should fit 500 on each side.

Mine are a little too big and I will have to glue the pegs as they come out too easy. Turn it upside down and give a little tap or sand it a bit to fit.
