My 8 y/o son has been lusting after an $800 Lego kit. A walking Star
Wars tank. It has something like 8000 pieces. I explained to my wife
that it would reasonably keep him busy for a whole week. But she didn't
see the logic :). So we bought him a simpler kit with 1200 pieces that
will keep him busy for one day.
I don't know whether the K2 or the $800 Lego kit would take less time to
build but he will learn some new skills assembling the K2. The K2 could
spark an interest that could last a lifetime where the walking Star Wars
tank could be forgotten in a few months.
