    Eh, I’ll give windscreens a pass, since there isn’t a great way to do them using multiple smaller pieces, but that dragon head sounds inexcusable. C’mon LEGO, this is not f*cking playmobil. Assembly is the whole point!

      I just found it is the head from Set 2507. Special moulded parts for one set, and then painted from several sides - must cost a fortune in production and development. For that money, they could have made a brick-built on.

      With windscreens it is a mixed issue. Some have multiple uses, but some are not as good in that regard.

      Maybe it’s duplos, but I’m pretty sure if you asked my nephew and nieces when they were younger, disassembly was definitely the point.
