WHY?...Can't lego just sell normal building blocks? There are hundreds of comments about this on blogs, comments, reviews, etc. on any number of sites. It is really bad business not to listen to your customers. We are already getting price gouged. Please make a set with rectangular quads, square doubles, 8 length doubles, etc. Enough with garbage pink or purple singles that my son never uses. Total waste. YOU know this! Please give us what we want. And yes, I already know about the preused, randomly selected block sets. Please...this is your response to your consumers? Let 3rd parties buy old product and throw pieces randomly in boxes. We want regular building blocks. Enough with the games.

Recommendation: meh 4.56 / 5 from 9 reviews

I have just started to use Lego again as an additional hobby. I got the Large Creative Box as a gift for Christmas. I think the box is a great starter box for young and old alike. It has a good diversity of bricks and components. I have started to build detailed buildings and have managed to use a substantial amount from the box.
