in addition to that, I propose this:
Technic focused designer sets. Better value brick buys, that the creations
within are designed getting the most out of your techinc parts. How to make
really strong joints, like for a tipper, or a crane, or a drawbridge. Lots of
little examples that show simple machines at work. A basic lower priced set
with lots of studded beams (to further encourage incorporation into the brick)
lots of gears in a variety of sizes, incuding worm elements, assorted technic
connectors and brackets. Then highlight gearing and power transfers. Shoot,
incude parts for a supercar transmission, that alone will keep someone
mesmorized for hours.
Lots of parts. (not limited by the not so many peices you tend to get in a
regular set)
Low price. (we want to Encourage activity in this)
basics, basics, basics. (the how-to)
C’mon. Please.

I absolutely agree. the Technic basic sets of yesteryear were GREAT for this
type of bulk,
open-ended creativity. For me, these 3 sets are my technic designer sets:
The yellow set went with me every where for the 1st few months -year i had it.
