Angry lego faces.. Are kids toys getting more aggressive?

[Polga123]

Just read this article.

Do you think kids toys are getting more aggressive? Not sure what I think about this... I'm definitely aware of 'aggressive' toys and avoid them, not sure if they are a new thing though?

Lego is rubbish now, too many kits that make you build 1 thing and not as much creativity

It's even better now IMO.

My son has made some amazing 'custom builds' with his sets, really very creative.

Re that story; they sometimes have double faced heads with different expressions, some smiley and some frowny, but all seem to fit the character and give more scope to play out different scenarios.

I do, I do remember Treacle!

We saw Chinese knockoff legos in a Poundland-type store in Germany. The police station had an interrogation room, the police figures carried machine guns, and some police had riot gear. Other than that it was exactly like regular legos.

I don't know how to make clicky links but the reviews on this are brilliant .

I loved Lego when I was younger.

I'm waiting til the 3 year old is interested then the fun starts. I will spend my nights making Lego buildings while hes in bed.

Used to make rude sculptures out of his playdoh but that phase as passed
