I wasn't too excited about the line to begin with (because it isn't my
thing), but to hear that its Juniorized AND Creator figs makes me cringe.

Isnt that called Playmobile?

Funny how they try to imitate other toy companies - first it was imitate
K'Nex with Znap - failed.  Now its Playmobil.  Gimme a break.

Maybe at this rate they'll eventually start imitating LEGO.

lol..

Well, what boggles my mind is they have a BETTER product concept and yet
they reduce themselves to imitating lesser toys.
