I sense sarcasm, but you get my point, there are way better things to choke on then model kit pieces.
True enough, but there's a problem. Parents will see these and think "Oh, there's a toy robot in there, I should buy that for my child." Or "My offspring is brilliant, such a simple model wiould be easy for him/her!"
And then little davey dumb@ss swallows a torso piece and chokes to death because his parents overestimate.
Somehow, Lego-type toys manage to induce a moment of clarity in parents.
Thats why they can print the words "model kit - contains small pieces,
assembly required" Really, when parents see the word
assembly required on a toy box, it goes back on the shelf unless their kid have built one before. They're trying to eliminate the possibility that their kid ends up bugging them to fix it.
Although legos is well-established enough so parents know they are buying a building-block set. I NEVER get Legos by accident as a present, although i rather legos then the books and thumbdrives i keep getting.
