| Hey everyone. Just recently got and assembled Lego City street skatepark 60364,
and read the instruction for this piece. The picture says to use the scooter
handle (needed else where in the set, and there's no extra ones) to remove
the tile if needed.
The set also did not come with any type of separator. Is Lego starting not to
include separators?
This is not the first time I have had questions about newer sets, over the last
several years, it seems Lego has been finding many little ways to save money,
things that they would not even want you to do for building for a designer program.
For instance, the Lego creator ramen shop has steps requiring you to use more
than one piece for a length that could be covered in one piece and not for design
(example using two 1x2 instead of a 1x4). Are they just trying to add pieces
to the set piece count? Also, lego seems to be using bigger wall pieces instead
of giving you the bricks to build the wall, and quite frankly I like to build
walls for most builds rather than use what my siblings and I call "cheat
codes".
I'm a loving fan of lego, but I really think they're starting to give
less for the money. Does anyone else feel this way?

| Not every set comes with a brick separator, it depends on the size.
As for the road plates, for most of the sets I've built that include them,
the instructions show how to use one of the set's bar element to remove the
tiles. I don't think you could do it with a separator.

Poking any bar through the hole to remove tiles or plates put in those slots
is less likely to damage them than trying to lever a separator in there. I don't
see the problem with suggesting the best tool for the job.
