They actually have a division that's set up just to explore how their
product can be used to help in early childhood development, on top of stuff like
the LEGO First League

Same here. I bought a Matoro set from McD's only to find that someone had
stolen the Kanohi, and they sent me a replacement _set_. I had a Manas drive
unit that wasn't working correctly, and they sent me a free replacement (they
did send me a SASE to return the defective unit, but it was so they could
investigate why it didn't work correctly, not for proof that I wasn't trying to
scam them). I was even able to get a December replacement for a mispacked piece
in the Technic R2-D2 (mixup between white #5 and #6 angle-connectors) even
though their Consumer Affairs department had been told that they wouldn't be on
shelves for another month.
