First, hat tip to you, HE, for helping me post the pics.
Okay, here's the (quick) backstory:

We were at Donna's brother's place in Maryland over the weekend and her nephew is BIG into Legos (and a Lego builder extraordinaire). The box said ages 13+, but her 8-year-old nephew Braden put it together like I would create a rectangle out of 4 big wooden blocks. (The pieces were really small.)
