  Release dates
 
All, Sorry for the delay in getting posting this info. I've been crazy busy lately (when you aren't traveling, people are actually able to get ahold of you!), and still trying to catch up.

  Re: Release dates
 
(...) Thanks for the update Jake. And, bearing in mind this is a worldwide community, I see no reason why product won't spread around the world of its own accord. I've certainly done my share of "transporting Lego product across international (...) (19 years ago, 25-Feb-05, to lugnet.lego, FTX)

  Re: Release dates
 
If a general release of Vikings in North America would act as a boat anchor, then I really don't have a problem as long as I can still obtain the Viking sets via Shop at Home or LEGO stores. Why Playmobil can offer Vikings (and fig (...) (19 years ago, 26-Feb-05, to lugnet.lego, FTX)
 
  Re: Release dates
 
For a company that is struggling to make ends meet, something is puzzling me... Why two series? Why Dino Attack and the Vikings? Why not Vikings only? Let me elaborate: With the Dino Attack series, you have New Set Concept - some unknown number of (...) (19 years ago, 26-Feb-05, to lugnet.lego)

<snippage> (...) Wow!!! Tony, you really threw the guantlet down! :D (how's that for a castle reference?) And while he's at it, how about retiring bley and dark bley. Oh and since you're making requests, I want some new monorail track and blue (...) (19 years ago, 26-Feb-05, to lugnet.lego)

  Re: Release dates
 
(...) Thanks for the clear information Jake. While I am upset that I won't be able to compulsively buy a Viking set everytime I go to the store, I am glad that they will be available via SAH. The Viking line is one of the best, most exciting themes (...) (19 years ago, 27-Feb-05, to lugnet.lego, FTX)

(...) The arc was pretty clear from castle to pirates to cowboys to adventurers. Not to mention Star Wars. If I have snipped out your other examples of where Lego might go next, but I think if you want to find out where Lego goes next, visit a toy (...) (19 years ago, 28-Feb-05, to lugnet.lego)
