I knew I had heard of their company before when I went to the Toy Show in NY and saw some of the stuff this Sun Yu guy makes for his other company, IQ Hong Kong. There’s even a press release written by Zen Design Group for the IQ Hong Kong company on their website: http://www.iqhk.com/file/news/hl9pressrelease-20060121101549-502491.pdf As you can see, Zen Design Group is clearly out to make money on the Green Movement Angle, and could care less about the environment.

I like the idea but they don't sound too great from your review. My son would likely lose interest as well. He did like building his own solar car toy -- so maybe there's something to the building thought you had.
