- ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR SETS: The Premium 16-Inch Plastic Giant Chess Set is one of the most popular sets from MegaChess. While still eight times larger than most tabletop chess sets, this set is a little smaller than our giant chess sets. It includes 16 black and 16 white pieces. The Large Chess Pieces range in height from a 16-inch king to a 9-inch-tall pawn. The set can be used indoors and outdoors and is made with high-quality, long-lasting materials. Chess mat or board sold separately.
- HIGHLY DURABLE: These large plastic chess sets are displayed worldwide in various climates and environments. They can stay outdoors for extended periods without maintenance, staining, or fading, making them a great addition to any lawn, backyard, or garden. Made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) injection-molded, hollow, recycled plastic, they are waterproof, resistant to UV rays, and will retain their huge shape and color regardless of the weather.
- GREAT FOR CUSTOMERS WITH LIMITED SPACE: MegaChess makes giant chess sets that are 8, 12, 16, 25, 37, and 49 inches tall. This set is our third smallest giant plastic chess set. It is designed for smaller children or customers with less than five feet of space for their chessboard. Standing between 16 and 9 inches tall, these large lawn chess pieces are surprisingly light enough for even the youngest players to move easily yet large enough to resist the wind.
- COMMERCIAL OR RESIDENTIAL: The set is very portable. This large-size yard chess set can be displayed anywhere - big open floors, backyards, parties, campgrounds, shopping malls, schools, university and corporate campuses, cruise ships, local parks, and museums - for groups of people to enjoy the complex and entertaining strategy implementation in a game of chess. Chess can become a communal experience and bring together family and friends when played out in the open on a lifesize set.
- MEGACHESS QUALITY: Each MegaChess item is meticulously handcrafted by artisans to ensure it maintains its appearance and integrity in all weather conditions and with frequent long-term use. We have been manufacturing large chess and checkers sets, boards, mats, and other accessories using the highest quality standards since 2002.

For the ultimate chess-playing experience, we have developed a chess set that is larger than life! Standing at 16 inches tall, the big, but not huge, pieces included in this set are designed to be indestructible, making them perfect for outdoor settings, as well as commercial settings in which they are likely to be used by scores of people.
The pieces are very light, weighing about 8 to 17 ounces each, which enables them to be easily moved by young children. They can be made heavier as well. Simply drill a hole at the bottom of each piece, fill it with fine sand, and seal it back up with adhesive.
These chess pieces are designed to withstand the most extreme weather conditions. We have set in the heat of the Middle East, the humidity of the far East, the cold of the Rocky Mountains, and the sun, sand, and salty air of Southern California.
Please note board and mat are not included.
Extra-large pieces made of rugged, waterproof, anti-UV injection-molded plastic; resists staining & fading, even when exposed to the elements. Big enough to be more fun than average-size chess sets but lightweight enough to take with you to outings. Weight-adjustable. Potential to inspire children to learn strategy & logic. Great for beginners. Perfect for lawn games, wedding events, backyard fun, pubs, wineries, chess clubs, schools, hotels, resorts, campgrounds, special events & more!
