We are pleased to announce (Amy is, especially) that Cameron's obsession with the U.S. military, and the weaponry associated with that particular organization, has been partially re-directed to a brand-new obsession...Lego's Bionicles. They're pretty cool (albeit relatively short) robots and they have a whole story that I will need to beef up on.
I give high marks to the five or so Bionicles figures that we have bought and assembled so far. Visually engaging designs, lots of moveable joints and they do not come apart easily (a big selling-point). Assembly generally takes about 10 to 15 minutes per figure and there are usually a few very small parts.
So...in light of the fact that we now have enough soldiers, jets, choppers, aircraft carriers, etc. to rival the Chinese army, Amy and I strongly recommend Bionicles products for any family members who are struggling to think up a birthday gift for Cammy. We thank you deeply in advance!
