Disney 100th Anniversay Dominoes

These dominoes are great quality and very consistent. They have more grip than other dominoes so they slide less, which is better for consistency, but means some tricks won't work / will work differently. If you saw the h5 domino community unboxing youtube video Lily made about them, here's my response (also comparing the bulkdominoes, the 'other brands' mentioned in the video): 1) Improved surface texture – Confirmed - Grips the floor noticeably more. Dominoes slide less. Some tricks that require domino sliding might need to be modified. - Dominoes fall a lot more consistently - Texture does feel great, color does look a lot more uniform, and they look great on camera - Don't have to look very closely, watermark is very visible. Of course I'm assuming you're buying these dominoes to support Lily, so this shouldn't be a problem, but keep in mind that this watermark (on both sides) is significantly more visible than the bulkdominoes watermark. 2) 'Precision engineered and manufactured' – Confirmed - Dominoes indeed feel higher quality and feel good - Bulkdominoes dominoes can be inconsistent, when doing tricks, different dominoes may behave differently. These dominoes seem to behave much more consistently - Edges are noticeably more square and precise, they do feel higher quality and feel sturdier 3) 'Perfect rectangular prism' – Confirmed? - Not entirely sure what this means. I can confirm that some bulkdominoes dominoes don't feel completely flat, but this is pretty rare. Bulkdominoes dominoes are generally very flat. All the dominoes I got in this hevesh5 set were also flat, but I'd need to get a lot more to be certain that they are 'flatter' in general. What I can say though is, as I said before, they feel higher quality in the hand and I'm more confident in them being flat, for what it's worth 4) No mold dots – Confirmed... with a small catch - Mole dots are visible... barely... in bulkdominoes dominoes. You have to look really closely to see them though. I can confirm that they are not present in this hevesh5 domino set - The catch is that instead of the mole dots, one of the faces is one large mold. It's not very noticeable (similar to the mold dots), but if you look close to the corners/edges of the side that does not have the number on it, you'll see a very faint outline of a mold near the rim. I'll admit, this is barely noticeable, and is fainter than the mold dots on bulkdominoes dominoes, but in practice neither are really noticeable, so I don't think this should be a dealbreaker. 5) Reduced small white dot – Confirmed - Video is pretty accurate. Dot is still clearly visible, even from a distance, but is smaller. - I would say that it's more white than the h5 domino shown in the video, so don't expect it to be like that, but it is a noticeable improvement over bulkdominoes. Don't think it's gone though 6) Vibrant, saturated colors – Confirmed - I don't have white bulkdominoes dominoes, so can't compare those - For all the dominoes, the h5 domino colors look much more consistent than the bulkdominoes colors - Red h5 dominoes look very similar to bulkdominoes dominoes. I wouldn't say the h5 dominoes are more vibrant, but I do prefer their look - Yellow and blue bulkdominoes dominoes are more vibrant and saturated and look much better in my opinion 7) Comply with worldwide standards – Confirmed - Because of the better edges / corners, they feel like they comply with the standards better than bulkdominoes, if that makes sense? Conclusion: These dominoes are better in nearly every regard. Two potential cons, however, are that 1, the h5 watermark is much more visible than the bulkdominoes watermark. Not at all a problem for me, but something to keep in mind. 2, because of how much... better and more stable these dominoes are because of their texture, some tricks might not work / might need to be modified that require domino sliding either on the floor or on each other. Many tricks in general that require contact between dominoes might work differently, but I was able to find a way to alter most tricks to make them still work. Overall, my biggest concern with these dominoes is that I can't buy them in bulk :P Great dominos Lily and Spinmaster games :)
