The modern LEGO landscape is the best it's ever been, IMO. The Saturn V set is absolutely incredible, and for a kid the manual comes with a wealth of knowledge about the early space program. The NES set has a TV with a moving Mario level. A _moving_ Mario level. It's insane. My mind is blown as an adult; I can't imagine what child me would have done with that engineering knowledge. I haven't built the piano nor the typewriter yet, but from what I've seen they are similarly impressive sets.
