Opening the bag, you can see that there is not a wasted inch. Those six modular segments are indeed 2' x 2'.
There is a pouch on the inside of the lid, to store the clips that hold the segments together. Nice touch!
Some of the segments are covered in clear plastic. Of course you get the standard "This bag is not a toy"-sticker. Those always crack me up. It's both sad and hilarious, at the same time, that some people have to be told this...
Here, you can clearly see the lattice that cover the underside of every segment. It makes the whole thing incredibly stable. Good thing, indeed! I've got experience of other ready made plastic gameboards, and they are all wobbly because they are completely hollow. I know a lot of people fill these with expanding foam, to make them rigid. That won't be necessary with this board, though!
Here's the sprue with the clips you use to hold the segments together. You get 32 clips, a lot more than you actually need for the whole table, so you can afford to break or loose a few. Very good!
Here's a close-up of a clip holding two segments together. Putting them in place is very easy, and they work very well.
All in all, in my opinion this product is worth every penny! I'm well impressed with it, and I'm really looking forward to getting ours painted and flocked, and playing some games on it.
