I have 4 boys, and they do both quite honestly.  They'll assemble and keep
assembled for quite some time.  Eventually one of them breaks one, and the
pieces are then used for 'free play' if you will.

I can't speak towards 'oddball' or not, as I've often recommended they use
glue when assembling, but I grew up with model cars and such.  Actually, I
can.  I'm pretty odd.
