I agree. The arms actually grip fairly well; I'm using them
for all kinds of machinery and technical detail...that is, I
*will*, as soon as I have more than 3 or 4.
Interesting note about the Martian head: Its base clips fit
between the two fingers of a click-hinge brick, and hold it
pretty snugly, thus allowing you to create all sorts of mutants.
Limited utility, I know, but it's the kind of thing you find
out at 2 or 3 in the morning.
And tomorrow...it's back home to the YooEss!
