The invention relates to a toy building element (1,8) for use in a toy building element system comprising a number of toy building elements with coupling studs for coupling with other toy building elements with complementary coupling sockets, the coupling studs being arranged in a regular pattern with a specific modular distance relative to each other. The toy building element is characterized in that in its free state at least some of the coupling studs of the toy building element are shifted relative to the modular distance, the mutual position of the coupling studs of the toy building element being elastically changeable at least to a mutual position corresponding to the modular distance. The invention also relates to a toy building set having such a toy building element.
A toy building element for use in a toy building element system comprising a number of toy building elements, said toy building element comprising:
A toy building set comprising a number of rigid toy building elements with coupling means for coupling with other rigid toy building elements with corresponding coupling means, said coupling means being arranged in a regular pattern with a specific modular distance relative to each other, wherein the toy building set also comprises at least one flexible toy building element with coupling means, wherein at least some of the coupling means in the free state of the toy building element are shifted relative to said modular distance, the mutual position of the coupling means of the flexible toy building element being elastically changeable at least to a mutual position corresponding to said modular distance.
