This would be a nice idea to try out ...

With Spectrum Game Sprites, either using `post-it` colored paper, or using Lego bricks.

Looks like fun, though at the same time the thought of getting every single one aligned terrifies me.

First person to post 'Pixy the Microdot' gets a slap :-p

Yep ...

Never saw one of those bags, with lego like studs, probably some kind of rubber, so that the legos do not fall off, while twists and bends.

But your sprites, do not have color clash, where they should :)
Example, legs of the last one.

Yep that bag is very cool. If they do a black one I'm sold.

I take it yours obey SAM colour rules?

Ha, they're in screen mode 4 so in terms of colour clash they're fine but I must admit I've not looked up the colours to see if they're accurate to the SAM palette :)

The major downside of the studs is you only seem to get them in yellow, blue, red, black and white.
