  • slime good but not magnetic enough
the overall product is great, but the slime could be a little more magnetic to the magnet and it can get annoying how the magnet will stick to the container but other than that it's a great product.

  • This stuff is awesome.
I bought three different colors from amazon and each has its own unique qualities. I have hypercolor twilight, super magnetic tital wave, and super illusions super oil slick. I think out of the three, the super illusions is my favorite to just play with and stare at. It's so fascinating and the constant shifting colors is fun. However, after a while, the super illusions causes my hands to feel sticky. I know it's not supposed to, but it does. It's been like that since I first got it out of the tin, with freshly washed and dried hands, so it's the putty doing it. The magnetic is fun to squish around some, too, but I enjoy just setting it down and letting it eat a magnet. It's fun to watch. You don't get as much magnetic putty per tin as the other colors, probably because it weighs more. Don't mix in your buckyballs/zen magnets. The little metal shards get pulled out by magnets and it's a pain to get them back off the zen magnets, since they scratch them up. It's easy to get the shards off bigger magnets. The hypercolor is my favorite to squish around when I need to concentrate (I have ADHD) because it isn't distracting and has a really good consistency to it. It also doesn't make my hands feel sticky. When I buy tins of these for my fellow grad student friends, I plan on getting the hypercolor varieties. ... show more

  • Fabric is ruined if they drop any
This is cool and fun, & my grandson loves magnets. My 6 yr olds dropped a bit on clothes, chair cover. Bright blue, and alcohol does not take out the blue color. Buy this for very careful older kids or adults. This is my second attempt, the first was an older nephew...it ended up on my mom's carpet...forever (at least that one was a muted color!) Neat concept, just not practical for fabric or carpet. I just threw the shirts away. ... show more

  • Great color, softer than I expected
Strangely enough, the part that fascinated us the most is how it sticks to & releases from, and magnetically chases the surface of the tin (as in "what did the snail say when he landed on a turtle's back? Whee!). Since it's a steel tin, you get quite a bit of extra bang for your buck with the magnetic stuff. We did a donut with the magnet in the middle and closed the tin... which was kind of a bad idea. If you do it, be patient and don't bend your tin. I'm not sure most folks probably are creative, curious, and/or patient enough to really experiment with it to get the full fun out of it. The textured surface it gets is entirely from the iron (or whatever) shavings doing their thing. It's puzzlingly smooth for having grit in it. I could see this turning into a real mess if used in a less-than-clean environment, or left out on fabric, or on the sleeping dog. This is excellent stuff for some gentle (or not) hand exercise. It's a great way to move a tiny bit between hourly "get-out-of-your-chair" breaks at my desk. ... show more

  • Too Sticky to play with :(
Just an awful product that wasn't very magnetic, or easy to play with in the slightest. I'm unsure if this product was a bad batch, got left in the heat to long or what but it was so very sticky to an unusable state. We've heard such good things about this brand too so it was just unfortunate. The slime wasn't even able to remove the slime that stuck to your hands, soapy water also did little to remove the goop, and the blue died our hands for days. Like I said maybe we got a bad batch as we've heard such good things about Aaron's slime but I just can't trust purchasing a product from them again. ... show more

  • not magnetic, but bonds with cloth at a subatomic level
My first mistake was letting my kids bring it with us on vacation. No actually my first mistake was buying this sparkly rubber cement that is, for some unknown reason, marketed to children. My daughter accidentally fell asleep on top of this mass of glop, and in the morning, it was stuck to her pajamas and the hotel's bed sheet. The bond was both unfortunate and, I have to admit, spectacularly impressive - it was like the goo had fused with the cloth at a subatomic level. I decided to pitch her beloved snow leopard pajamas, but I was afraid the hotel would charge the security deposit for the sheet (which was attached to my mom's credit card, long story, and I didn't want her to be charged). So after trying to scratch out the putty with my fingernails, I searched online - with my now smurf-blue stained fingers - for the best way to get this evil concoction out of cloth... Somewhere I read that rubbing alcohol takes it out (I think I read that on some website connected to the product, because it certainly wasn't written by someone actually trying to get this adorably-packaged-biohazard out of cloth). So I bought a bottle of rubbing alcohol at a Cape Cod CVS, brought it back to the room and drenched the glop with it. Incredibly it didn't have any effect! Well except that the entire hotel room smelled like I'd been knocking back Everclear while my 7 and 9 year old watched TV. In a small room, the smell was near tear-inducing. So I called the main desk and told them we'd had "an accident" and needed a new sheet. A nice guy from housekeeping came by. I wadded up the sheet so the blue wasn't obvious and handed it to him. I tried to explain that I'd used rubbing alcohol to get something out of the sheet, but he didn't speak English. He couldn't have missed the overwhelming smell of alcohol though so, in case he was considering calling child services, I showed him the bottle of rubbing alcohol - which I think he thought I was offering to him because he waved his hand in a "no thank you" motion. The hotel didn't charge me for the sheet btw... or for the spots where the putty had fused with the carpet. I managed to pick it out of the shag with my fingers, but a telltale blue stain remained. Oh and I guess I should mention - it wasn't magnetic - not at all. Unless somehow all the cloth we encountered was magnetic. My kids liked it anyway because when you press something into it you get an imprint - like, you know, you get with regular silly putty - only for significantly less money. I'm giving it two stars instead of one because I'm sure it has some unexplored scientific benefit, like bonding bulletproof cloth with silk or something. ... show more
