The environment argument gets even thinner when you consider the fact that set
8259 (Mini Bulldozer) has 3 instruction booklets - 2 for the main model, and one
for the alternate model. Considering that this is only about 65 pages worth of
instructions, 3 separate books seems a bit ridiculous. The fact that it's a $10
set in the US further complicates matters.
Great set, though.
