Instead of always commenting or complaining about what Lego ‘should’ or
‘shouldn’t’ do with regards to its new or upcoming themes, how about we (the
AFOL) offer some genuinely New Themes/Systems that would be commercially viable.

Possible themes that would both sell well and gain our interests.
A -Top (5) Five List- of the best New Themes for Lego to look into for 2003.
Weather it’s a new theme, or an extension to an older theme, just propose
your top five choices and the reasons why!


I'm sure most of mine would be mutually exclusive, but what the heck:

1. Lord of the Rings.  Heck, Lego seems to be into the movie-tie-in theme,
and this wedded to the Castle line is such a natural that I'm surprised it
isn't a done deal.

2. Jules Verne/HG Wells 19th century extension of the Adventurers line.
Brass colored bricks?  :-)

3. Greece/Rome.  Probably the best pre-medieval theme they could do.

4. Pirates - with a big treasure galleon and a mid-size pirate schooner!  Do
the Armada right!  Throw in a small cutter!  Arrrrrr, ye slackardly lubbers!

5. Battletech.  Geez, doesn't Microsoft own that now?
