Ahh...ok. Thanks for the update.
Even though I understand this was a joke, I have to say it....
The main thing to remember about things like Creator and Jack Stone: They
are for a younger audience!! An audience who may not have the motor skills
to handle a small figure like the minifig. Or might have safety issues with
something so small!
OK, thanks, I feel better! :)
