EXCELLENT job AGAIN Lego with your marketing strategies (starting with eBay
auctions and now the NBA) . You continue to expand the Lego name in today's
ever-growing consumer society. eBay helped a lot and now with the expansion
toward the NBA and previously Major League Soccer and World Cup Soccer I
can't help but see the great potential this can have. You are getting more
and more audiences involved, which is great. I'm looking forward to seeing
what other major corporations you will end up joining with in the future.
Again, great job Lego. Very impressive! :-)
