I got a two pack of this from MASSDROP and I was quite disappointed to find that these are quite weak! :( Weak attraction to ferrous metal as well :(
sohail99Greetings Sohail99. We made MEGA a specific strength so you can play marble-like games with them. Any stronger, and gaming becomes impossible. You can definitely build some kickass geometric desk art. MEGA even looks cool in a pile (Sheldon of The Big Bang Theory's desk below).

If you're into building & construction, I definitely recommend you try Nanodots Magnetic Constructors.
Btw, I've let the Massdrop team know to update the posting to reflect the magnet type. MEGA are not made of rare earth magnet. MEGA are made of a military-grade ceramic ferrite. A neodymium magnet that size would be extremely dangerous and impossible to use (pinching and crushing alert!).
NanoMagneticsIndeed. Rare earth magnets are handy, but not for play. Not only dangerous, but they can collide with enough force to self destruct. I got some from Thinkgeek years back. Only really get them out to open blu ray cases the store forgot to.
craingerI appreciate your seriousness Crainger. Safety is important and it's something we also take very seriously. With any of our magnetic products, neodymium or otherwise, the warning is emphasized. In most cases literally the brightest part of the package. Thanks for sharing this note :)
