    Okay, but my 20+ year old Lego still work today. Can I expect this e-waste to perform the same for my grandchildren as it would today?

      To be fair, as long as the batteries are easily replaceable and don’t degrade destructively, it might age better than the original Mindstorms components which are a PITA to use today.

      Then again, plain ABS at worst yellows under too much UV.
