       @tek with the missing 68 pieces I’m sure they can throw in an extra game cartridge

       @tek I didn't believe that an Atari 2600 LEGO kit existed or if it did exist, that it would have only 2532 pieces, but I have fact checked both now.

       @robertpi I saw one behind the counter at a book store, and that giant offense of a number leapt out at me. They were 97.4% of the way there, then quit!

       @tek But 68 pieces less means a fraction of a cent more profit for Lego. And every single Lego design needs to be optimized for that.

       @satchmo35 Shrinkflation: same price (adjusted for year), less functionality.
