Only if they were mentioned in disparaging terms;-) All seriousness aside, of
course I wouldn't care if clones were mentioned *in passing*. What I wouldn't
want to see is a catering to clones-- set reviews, etc.
Being an AFOL is a very unique experience-- if TLC didn't exist, I doubt I'd be
playing with any of the clone brands out there. Being an AFOL is being in a
state of total immersion in *LEGO*.
Of course I could add clones to my collection, but I don't. Why? What if they
were even on par with LEGO? I would still hesitate. Maybe some of this
branding TLC is so concerned about is rubbing off on me! Perhaps I can consult
Dave! for a little deprogramming session, since it appears that he is
impervious to the marketing effects of TLC:-)
