The entire website is incredible. Good find, Colin.
What I don't understand why this is not sold as constructor toy sets? There's a lack of simple interesting educational toys for 5+ year-olds. These are just a perfect fit. Just look at the combination lock [1] or the Hui Game toy [2], for example. What kid wouldn't want to have this? I would buy a good half of these creations in a jiffy.
† Assuming they are well made and reasonably priced (under $100).
