The PolyLinx family of Unbounded Construction Toys is poised to grow to a broad range of model specific kits that provide open-ended discovery as well. This begins with the Poly-Educational line of kits, a family of kits that allow users to explore geometries covering math, physics, chemistry and the natural world.
- A strong market entry product line
- Includes a range of model specific kits
- Kits easily “Snap and Fold” together
- Provides parts and instruction for a range of educational shapes, from easy to complex
- Full family of Poly-Educational prototypes complete
- First generation CAD ready for tooling
- Provides the young and old user with unending free form exploration
The Poly-Educational Line is just the start, the unique capabilities of PolyLinx lie well beyond. The International Space Station with re-deployable solar arrays, the Eden Project in Cornwall, England, or a spectacular as yet unimagined deep sea colony are all within the grasp of PolyLinx in ways no other construction set can meet. But the fun does not have to be complex. PolyLinx kits can be developed for the young or intermediate user that wants to snap together a car, truck,
or rocket and zoom around.
PolyLinx can easily expand to multiple compelling product lines:
- Educational – polyhedra, molecular…
- Kinetic – moving monsters, robots, machines…
- Themes – space exploration, architecture…
- Just Plain Fun!
The Poly-Educational line of kits should be viewed as an initial step to vast world of exploration.
PolyLinx™ Poly-Educational Kits
PolyLinx Poly-Educational line has sets for the beginning builder to the serious construction enthusiast.* Each kit comes with instructions for building several shapes but also allows for inventive, open-ended design.
PolyLinx Primer

PolyLinx Nanotube
246 pieces
Easy to construct and impressive to see, this kit builds a 16 inch long model of a carbon nanotube. Magnifying this amazing carbon molecule millions of times, the PolyLinx kit builds a tube that is 16 inches long and 6½ inches in diameter. As with all of our kits, the pieces in this one may also be used to invent unique personal structures. In addition to the nanotube, this kit has parts for compact stars and compact forms of several of the polyhedra in the primer kit.
Kit includes: [+ -]
PolyLinx Buckyball
210 pieces
Perfect for soccer enthusiasts or truncated icosahedron fans, this kit builds a large, elegant Buckyball. The final product has over a two foot diameter and models the polyhedral shape of the C60 carbon molecule. Other shapes can also be built with this kit, including new designs the user may invent.
Can build these shapes and more:
- Icosadodecahedron
- Octahedron
- Truncated Tetrahedron
- Cuboctahedron
- Truncated Octahedron
