     (...) I don't think we can say that improved relations *is* the price we pay for the NDA and the Ambassador programs. I think it's more accurate to say that it's the *hope* and *desire* of most people, from AFOL's to the people at TLC, that the (...) (18 years ago, 15-Apr-06, to lugnet.general)

But with the huge volume of parts that are generated by TLG, I don't have much worry about someone hoarding all the parts. Even with all hoopla about (...)

     (...) I, for one, would welcome Lego re-releasing the Yellow Castle... I'd like to have a whole classic knight army, with flip-up visors. :) And I would also welcome Lego to re-release classic sets in classic colors if possible... I'm still not (...)

     Hi Ben, I believe the original germ of the idea of ~abuse~ was just a HYPOTHETICAL example. NO ONE has claimed that abuse has happened.

      (...) Chris is right, this is a hypothetical dicussion... but I not naive enough to believe that every Lego ambassador's motive is purely altruistic in nature...
