I still don't see the appeal. Do kids really need that software. Give them some cardboards and their imagination will do the rest. I played hours in the forest with friends and while playing we saw what we wanted to see and switched through hundreds of different settings. Why do small kids need a software to tell them what they should see instead of using their own imagination.
The biggest appeal in my eyes is sticking the cardboards together. The games look basic and simple without anything to learn for kids. Place your kid in front of a tv and let it destroy the same buildings over and over again. Wow what a good 80$ investment that teaches them nothing. Where are the social aspects? are there any labo games that can be played together with friends?

I totally agree.  As I stated in another post, my son and his friend make cardboard stuff using duck tape all the time.  There was a book at the book fair with 101 things you can make with duck tape.  They bought the book and made sword, shields, backpack wallets and some other junk.  Because they are boys they are very hard and ruff with this stuff so it doesn't last long but that's the whole point.  Knowing how my son is with the crap he makes I really cannot see myself spending 80 bones for something that will not last more than a week if they play with it a lot.  I definitely cannot see myself spending that type of money if they only play with it briefly then do not touch it again.  Either way sounds like a sink hole.
