Yes, detective, how observant of you to notice that I am a grown man. I am constructing miniatures. A distinguished and engaging activity. A thinking man's activity. I am not 'playing with legos' as a more boorish and crude individual would put it. Please consult the color and minimalist design of the packaging to dispel any doubts.
