Hmm, upon further inspection, the pirate ship set is Spongebob-themed.
But it shows up on the "girl" page: [link]
About half the stuff on that page is from the new series, the rest is old-school.
I miss Oz. He'd get it. He wouldn't say anything, but he'd get it.

Because books.
Sara would flip if she had a SpongeBob pirate ship Lego set. As if she needs any more toys, of course.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Otherwise, they have a "girl" pirate ship set and a "girl" laboratory set
What's the difference between a girl laboratory and a boy laboratory?
they're not a wardrobe accessory, and they're generally smaller-sized to appeal to kids
People buy guns because of their looks as well as their performance all the time. That's not new, or female. Also, the smaller size is targeted to children? My understanding is that it's targeted to the usually smaller women's hands. Where do get the kiddy demographic info from?
Buy this or you don't care about women!
I don't even see that subtext, and I worked at a krav centre where some of the pink stuff was explicitly breast cancer fight-related, because the co-owner suffered from and died of breast cancer. No blackmail at all.
However, liking pink probably distracts from all that. If you don't like pink, there's no good reason you should have to wear or use it.

The girl lab comes with a girl minifig.

Dag, when is somebody going to buy me the Lego Guggenheim already. How many birthday hints does a guy have to drop?

You can see it at the Building Museum in DC - it's pretty impressive.

We have to take the kids to D.C. Maybe this spring we can swing it. My "Aunt" Kay (mom's college friend) lives in Fairfax, and she's never even met Sara. (And she's been begging us to come down for years -- she can't because her husband has ALS now.)

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
When I was a kid I wanted an Erector set. Fat chance. I did get the chemistry set. Also Barbie and her Dream House. I'm multifaceted.
I had also heard about the SGK fighting for exclusive rights to "For The Cure". And, personally, I'm getting fed up with the constant ads for the event in October. I'm not especially fond of pink anything, so the marketing of pink this and that doesn't really ping me.
