It is pretty obvious to me that most real life shapes cannot be
accurately modeled in LEGO bricks. To be able to enjoy LEGO building,
one must have the imagination to recognize complex but common shapes
(e.g. vehicles or characters) in the basic and primitive shapes that
LEGO has to offer. This is the kind of imagination I was refering to.
