The last 2-3 years being the operative phrase there.

Does the nuclear sub with sound element count as being within “the last two to
three years”?

I would say so, I never got one cause it wans’t to scale with the others. (which
are close enough)

That set, partially completed (the hull was about 4-5 rows of bricks high)
crumbled under its own weight when extended 1 foot off the edge of a table
without support. I consider that unacceptable adhesion.

I have had the samething happen with lego before. Specifically the ship I built
almost 4 years ago. here
I had the front fork complete and attachted to the base of the ship and about 5
brick layers built up on the base. I picked it up and the front fork flopped
right off. I have also had it happen to retail sets. The Stardestroyer being the
most recent example. I have learned, regardless of brand, support everything
till its done or you are double sure it is strong enough.
Never had them. Well I had part of a tank that I got at a yard sale when I was
16 and [sigh] threw the parts out. (‘cause they wus inferior non-LEGO scum.)
Actually I think it was more the advertising campaign that I hated.
“[amazed]They’ve got Tyco, [dismayed]we’ve got LEGO.” I remember laughing
and immeadiatly discounting them as inferior (as I do with all products) because
they had to show the competion as weaker instead of showing themselves
stronger.
