I bought a couple sets (Ant and Multi-dino ones) at the Imaginarium a few
months ago, haven't seen them anywhere else yet.  There are just ok.  The
pieces don't always stay together that well and there's no "moving" parts so
basically you are building sculptures that you can't play with, just sit on
a shelf.  I think they have potential, though, for a more "organic" type of
building toy.

It's called Anatomics.  It sort of reminds me of a cross between Zoob and Knex,
with a little Lego Technic thrown in.  Most of the sets involve building
insects or dinosaurs; they have very endoskeletal appearances.  Of particular
interest are the numerous ball-and-socket joints, which fit perfectly with
Technic pins and holes.

Has anyone else seen this?  What do you think?  Did I miss some conversation
about this already?
