Thats what I thought untill I got a few sets (on sale) - it is actually a
pretty neat set once you hold it in your hands. The ONLY 2 reasons I bought
it was it was on sale, and I wanted more brown parts - cheap. But after I
built the 2 sets I bought, I went out and got 3 more of them - I know, not a
"big" buy, but for something I was sure I was going to hate, it is a "big" buy.
