Meccano is best known as Erector in the states. Something the more
purile Uk-AFOLS find somewhat amusing. Although that may preclude the
A in AFOL.
Rokenbok is an amusing little system - it reminds me of the Fraggle
rock doozer constructions. You can build crazy construction sites,
with remote control vehicals, trains, cranes, lifts and roadways as
well as stuff that balls roll down. Have a look at www.rokenbok.com
and watch the vids.
