Dear Ambassadors,

It has been some time since there has been any kind of voting poll for new sets.
Now that the new 2008 sets have come out, it would be a good time to start
thinking of sets that people would like to see in the future.

I think that the LEGO Coummunity has a good feel for what would do well, and
they probably have some new ideas that have not been considered.

With the recent announcement of Tormod being appointed as Head of Coummunity
Development, do you think that gathering ideas for possible Town Sets for 2009
is a good idea?

Many Thanks,
Scott

Given that City is one of TLG's most popular lines (especially for 2007), and
seeing some of the new 2008 City product is not Police/Fire/Rescue, I'm all for
gathering ideas for new town sets for 2009.  I definitely think it's time to
bring girl builders into LEGO City/Town... (i.e. more girls, more houses, even
4-person cars, for starters...)  One suggestion...walk down a street, and do not
look at the houses or buildings--look at everything else, as it's those little
details that make the overall town "pop"... Newspaper machines, parking meters,
trash cans, benches, street lights, traffic/parking signs.

I think TLG is on this trend--look at Corner Cafe, Market Street, and the
upcoming set in the line.  Great detail, and it's all very inspiring!

I've got a few other ideas, but I can't make them too public just yet...

(...) As an avid train fan, the best town sets to me are those that can be used interactively with a train layout. With the decision to retire 9V trains, this may be a poor time to ask for new train-related additions. But, LEGO has released few (...) (16 years ago, 22-Jan-08, to lugnet.ambassadors)
