| | | | | | (...) The form factor of the legs is the really important part. I've got the blue and yellow board with the interlocking pieces, and building around the legs has definitely been part of the challenge... btw-- light sensor readings on the pieces are (...)

The box is identical to Michael's (from TRU) and it even shows interlocking pieces on the front. The legs and board itself are the same I would assume. (...)
