Not GoodFeb 25, 2010 Spend your money on something else. This is a 100pcs set with 56 of them 1" long with one notch. I think we would have to buy 6 of the sets and toss out most of the pcs to make something useful or even close to what we remember Lincoln logs to be.
lincoln logsFeb 06, 2010 I ordered these for my nephew. He loves to build things and these were perfect. My order arrived on time and in good condition. Would recommend this seller to anyone.
Need more long pieces!Jan 04, 2010 Overall, this is a pretty good set of Lincoln Logs, but as usual with sets of building toys, there aren't nearly enough in one set to really do much with. I am disappointed in the sizes of the pieces. There are tons of small ones and not enough medium or long ones. You can only build one roof with one chimney at a time.
I did not notice any toxic smell, however, so I was happy about that.
Our kids will have fun with these, but we'll probably have to buy more to make them worth it.

A Not-so-American ClassicDec 28, 2009 My neice loved this toy. I was so happy she enjoyed such a classic. However, I was dissappointed to read on the tin that the product was made in China. Why is an American classic toy based on the American President Abraham Lincoln made in China? Let us make it here in America and I would give it 5 stars all around.

Not like they used to beApr 30, 2009 I haven't even opened the bags holding the wooden logs yet, so won't comment on them. There are definitely fewer of them than the set I had as a child.
The other reviewer who commented on the toxic smell was right - it's potent. Luckily I was buying for myself, not a child. I once bought a mahjong box imported from China with the same smell...2 years later, it hasn't gone away.
The tin is thin and cheap. My childhood set (from the '70s) came in a cardboard tube with a plastic top, and it was infinitely more sturdy than this "collectible" tin. In addition, the top was held on with clear tape that left a thick sticky residue when I removed it. I once bought a popcorn tin at a dollar store that suffered from the same problem.... I didn't expect it with this tin, for $30+. Sad. And I have to add $3 to the price I paid for the tin just for the naphtha I used trying to remove the residue! I also had to be extremely careful, so as not to bend the cheapo tin or its lid.
On the plus side, the logs seem to be better stained than the set I had as a kid - darker and more uniform, especially the green ones. Of course, as I said, I haven't actually opened the bags yet.
