Yes, I agree. It's bugging me to read in the catalogue that Scala is
for the girls and Town Jr. is for the boys.
Ok, so this is probably the approach that sells the most LEGO, since
they use that marketing strategy. I remeber very well when I was a
child myself; I would never like to be associated with some girly toy,
so I would probably like to read that my toy is a toy for the boys.
