Lego Finds Discontinued Set For Boy Who Saved Up For 2 Years
Speaking as a parent, Lego is a terrible toy.  Legos are only available in build-one-thing sets now - 100+ tiny pieces which build one thing, and if you lose a piece, you can't build that one thing any more, and the pieces aren't suited to building anything else.  Plus the resulting toys are terrible - you can't play with them, they fall apart!  I suppose I could glue every piece together, but that seems tedious.  It makes for very profitable presents-from-grandma, but it's a crappy toy.  I've embargoed Legos in my house.Speaking as a marketer, HN should understand that this is a piece of viral marketing from Lego.  It was created by an ad agency, not by good customer service.
