   Without giving away the farm (or fiefdom, for you castle folks), we can say that the existence of these figures in no way precludes the existence of a System-scale Castle theme. And the figures are unequivocally not a replacement for the Castle theme that you all know and love.

Thank you for explanation. I’d like to ask: how about Pirates? We heard the new Pirate sets will be 4+, with Jack Stone scale figures. That means no more regular minifig scale Pirates?

Thanks in advance and kind regards,

The take-away from my last message should be (in part) that no new product by default leads to the demise of another product.

So what you are saying is... that... F-F-FABULAND LIVES!!! :) ;P

..Heehee, seriously though, thanks for your words on all this. The Harry Potter vs System-Castle concerns have been here for some time. It is nice to here at least some counter-point to that.

I can’t really comment on the more recent concerns, as I haven’t had the time to lurk (much less post) much outside of .starship during recent months (planning a wedding is eating into my Lego® time). But I can say this: No matter what happens, Lego® Castle will always exist as long as I continue to have the bricks to build it. ;)

Cheerio,

Yes it does, just in the form of a certain mouse¹...
