Ah, but some of maintain the hope that Lego will make sets that are
intended for adults or gifted children to use. I'd pay a premium (over
and above the component costs) for a set as feature-packed and
mechanically ingenious as any of Jennifer's inspired pieces. And while
there may not be as many adult Technic users as children, I suspect that
they spend a lot more money on the stuff on average...
