Acacia Grove Mini Cinder Blocks with Pallet, 1/12 Scale (48 Pack)

These are perfect miniture replicas of cinder blocks. Awesome! Needs to be packed with lots of bubbles and in a box. Had quite a few broken blocks but I'm being sent another batch. Love 'em

Good quality. If you are expecting thesr to be cheap plastic, they arent! The cinder blocks feel like concrete, and the pallet feels like wood. They look great in my diorama. Would recommend.

These are great representation of cinder blocks , they work great for mini model layout scenes. My husband has been employed with Masonry Block Manufacturing company for many years and these These were given to him as a fun novelty gift along with a mini model scale forklift which is a perfect fit for the Pallets and can be manually operated to lift and transport them. Acacia is awesome seller taking pride in their product ( well deserved).They appreciate their customers and it shows.

So cool. So fun!

I purchased these mini cinder blocks on a whim but boy am I happy that I did!First, and foremost the blocks themselves are made of real cement. No cheap plastic imitation will be found here. This was especially important to me as I got this set as a gift for my uncle who has been a general contractor for most of his life, and he wouldn’t appreciate a cheap replica.True to form, my uncle whipped out a real cinder block when I presented these to him to see just how accurate the scale was. To his delight, they were exactly as Acacia grove claimed – a 1/12 scale replica in all aspects. The wooden palate that comes with it is also to scale and seems to be made of high quality wood.These cinder blocks are weirdly addicting to stack. Each block fits perfectly together so there is zero space left on the palate. I don’t know why but it gave a me a short-lived sense of satisfaction to stack these and my uncle enjoyed it as well.I highly recommend you buy these blocks if you are looking for something unique to put on your desk. They are made right here in the USA, so you know it’s not a cheaply made product, and more than once they’ve been a conversation starter.

I have two boys that play endlessly with loose parts. We are always looking for creative items to enhance their play and we’ve bought both the concrete blocks and red bricks from Acacia Grove. They are a perfect addition to our forklift, flatbed trucks and wooden train loading and unloading station play! Very well made and much more affordable than comparable products. Would recommend and order again myself!

So, the 1/12 scale CMU and the 1/12 scale brick are as close to perfectly scaled as you can get for actual sizes. The problem is, you’re never going to use mortar so they don’t reflect nominal size. 3 courses of brick (vertically) should be 1 CMU course but without mortar joints it’s off a bit. Same on length. 2 bricks should be 1 CMU. So using these as a tiny teaching tool doesn’t quite work. But they are awfully cute.

I work for an architecture firm and i thought this would be perfect for a white elephant gift! It’s so well crafted and i think it’ll be a hit!

This is a present for a builder friend. It is really well made; and arrived really quickly, and was beautifully packaged up.

Very cute well made works well with my project
