extra pieces   (+2)  [vote for, against]
big expensive model over time from small kits.

Looking in the shop, most construction block toys have the super big models, very expensive, and the cheapest small models. My thought is to have extra pieces in the small kit. These small extra pieces indicate a larger model that, with the collection and saving of the small sets, builds one big expensive model. Although, slightly cheaper because of the extra pieces.

Saving for something has to beat instant gratification especially with learning along the way.

Sort of "Buy a Rutan Long E-Z kit, get a 787 tailfin included" ?

This is a very good idea. How did it make it past security?

It was hidden inside the kit of parts for another idea, stupid.

Please, do try to keep up.

Well we can't have that now can we.
The excellent ideas will start rubbing off against the crappy ones and we'll just end up with fifty shades of great.

...and if my immune system hadn't rejected assimilation I wouldn't have to make mistakes in order to learn now would I?

I blame genetics.

[8th of 7] The Rutan's wing could be the tailfin of the 787. Extras would be parts not capable to be built from the small kits.
