I would say I'm torn as well. I like the idea of the "Agents" series, but would
be against any kind of military-theme set. My main issue right now is the
inclusion of weapons that actually fire in sets (Exo-Force and Star Wars
mainly). To me it seems pointless, but I sure thousands of kids have fun
shooting each other with them. I know it's harmless fun, but I always liked
that LEGO forced me to use my imagination when it came to weapons...especially
in spacecraft. Just call me old fashioned...or something like that.
