Heh, before they want to buy a Jackstone set, you should have a father to
child talk to them about it. Ask them why they would want to buy this set.
I think this would be able to help. Heheheh.

In today's mail I got a copy of a Jack Stone video from LEGO.
Quoting from the back of the tape sleeve:
"We hope you enjoy this FREE Jack Stone video from your friends at LEGO! Join
Jack Stone as he uses his wits and imagination to save the victims of a flood,
break up a bank robbery, and put out a blazing fire. It's all part of another
exciting day in the life of Jack Stone!"
It has a set number on it: 3901.
Anyone else seen one of these? Is it worth watching? It doesn't look very long;
probably less than 1/2 hour.

I watched it once, and it reminded me strongly of certain bits from the "Mind's
Eye" video series... most of which are about 5 years old, or more.
I kind of enjoyed it, in a twisted sort of way.
And no, it didn't inspire me to buy any Jack Stone sets. I don't mind the giant
figs so much, but the fact that there seems to be so little else you can build
out of the pieces. I'd rather buy the Mickey Mouse Fabuland-ish sets, or even
plain old Duplo for that age range.

I got one of those videos today as well...but...
I've left that for my kids to determine this afternoon. I'm sure they'll
want to tear into it as soon as they get home from school. I've already
warned my wife against purchases involving our money and Jack Stone sets.
If the kids want to use their allowances, so be it. Not my dollar, thank you!
