Very cool and much appreciated!

Now I know what Legos would like if McFarland toys made them.  The dragon
looks really cool in an action figure sort of way, but is it actually the
case that it doesn't attach to the bricks or plates in any way?

I have really enjoyed many of the recent MB innovations, but this stuff may
have gone too far in the direction of weird textures and colors.  I guess
I'll have to get some of these sets and decide for myself.  Some elements
are sure to be interesting as additions to the lego collective though.  I'd
dig the capes if they'd fit on a regular mini.

The dragon's legs and arms fall off, and the wings have a flapping mechanism
that is quite poor.

The two above sentences probably do not belong in the same paragraph
