hey, i got some of the 28 empty palettes. not happy with them, but whatever. i'll find a way to make them work. I think they should be clearer about them not having a magnetic bottom and being solid plastic with a foam insert; just more descriptive item info would have saved me money. As it stands, I'll just stick with taking the inserts out of my MAC palettes. I can get 21 shadows in that way, and will just deal with having stacks of palettes. I do like the compactness of the palettes from Stars, though.
Like stated above, the palettes do not have a metal bottom, so magnets won't stick unless you stick a sheet of magnet on there. The whole palette is plastic with a foam insert. These do not really hold MAC shadows. They don't grab the pans and there is a small space around the pan so they shift. The dimensions I measured for the 28 palette are 8.5" x just shy of 5.5" (5 7/16" exactly if you need that). It is just under half an inch thick (another of those 7/16" measurements).
Here are some pictures I took. My camera was acting up, but it will give a general idea:
and with a shadow and so you can see the foam:
