Blah. I couldn't care less if collectors are annoyed. The new sets won't
harm the collectability of old MISB sets. It will only harm the ability of
"collectors" to get the red tudor parts and sell them for obscene amounts of
money. Pardon me if I don't pity them.
This will make things much easier for BUILDERS, for whom I have the utmost
respect... that's what LEGO is, a BUILDING toy. If you want to collect
something, there are some nice Bionicle mask packs on the market that will
keep you busy for awhile.

| Hello, I'm consurring with Jojo's opinion but want to add 2 further cents. In Germany, specific in the Forum at 1000steine.de, there were much more criticism of the new "Legends-Line". Many "collectors" are annoyed, because TLC slapped them in the (...) (23 years ago, 11-Jun-01, to lugnet.castle)
