Re: LEGOs for Prototyping?

We occasionally use Legos to build quick models of some subsystems, and they have been really, really useful. But more frequently, we make use of a big pile of about 50 pounds of K'nex to make models of the entire robot (up to 1/2 scale). And for this year, it is a lot easier to make a tetra with K'nex that with Legos.
