Globe model kit (18” - 24” diameter). Besides families puchasing these, I can envision one in every elementary school classroom, probably being rebuilt each year by the new class. It could even become an incentive for good behavior: “Every student with good behavior today gets to add 5 pieces to the class LEGO globe model”.

Color mosaics, including the capability for larger sizes with multiple baseplates.

Sell the large store display mini figs to AFOLs.
  
  • What types of themes/concepts should LEGO stay away from?
Keep away from too much violence, and avoid dependance on licensed (movie) themes.
  
  • Are there any community projects/products (Moonbase? Great Ball?) that you’d like to see turn into a LEGO set?
Lets reverse this idea. How about LEGO sets that can become a community project? Envision mini fig scale model kits of 8-10 Washington DC landmarks. Each kit would be fun to buy and build individually, but could also be combined into an entire Washington DC layout. This concept could also work for other cities/regions of the world.

  
  • (And as a follow-up to the last question – are there any projects/products that LEGO should stay away from?)
Adding mass produced Moonbase kits goes contrary to the appeal of unique modules.
  
  • What types of products/themes/concepts do you think are missing from the assortment over the years?
Greater bulk part selection, particularly assorted bulk brick and plate packs in less common colors (dark red, dark green, dark blue, etc.).
  
  • Are there things missing in general? On box? In the instructions? In the box materials?
Add the piece count to the cover of instruction books for reference, and protect instructions and sticker sheets from damage when contents shift.
  
Thanks for your contribution!

The LEGO Ambassadors have been asked to provide some suggestions to the LEGO Shop at Home people about what types of things we AFOLs would like to see offered or available from S@H. This is a good opportunity for you to make a serious suggestion (...) (19 years ago, 23-Sep-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.theory, lugnet.market.shopping, FTX) !!
