Hi all, I received my 10041 Main Street from Lego last week, needless to say I'm very happy and it's an awesome set.

Thanks for the pictures and review. The Clikits product seems very similar to the new Ello product from Mattel. Mattel even calls their product a creation system. (URL) (22 years ago, 12-Mar-03, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.year.2003, lugnet.general)
