    those look like great fun, but i am afraid i would lose em one at a time.


    also looks like something i could swallow and then track with another one externally on it's magical journey through my intertubes. tee he he. it tickles.

    So for a few hundred, can I turn my office into the cockpit in Flight of the Navigator?

    These look like so much fun. There is a set of toys called Connects (I think) that are magnetic bars that you can use to build stuff. I have, er, um, my KID has a blast with those.
    (One of the major up-sides to being a parent are the cool toys.)

    @Curves: I am not a parent and I often buy lego sets and model kits.

    I'm currently in the process of building an A-10 warthog.

    Married and 27.

    @Beef Bacon...?: Lego sets are not really meant for kids (at least not from what I hear around Giz). There are MANY GizLegomaniacs so you are in good company. (And dont EVER call them Legos here, they flip out and go all postal on you!)
