 | | lets make 10030 do well
|
| judging by the age rating of 16 years and up, lego is testing how big is the AFOL market segment is. If it sells well then my guess is we will see more huge sets, more sets that us AFOL's want (not that I don't like the other sets, I do very much so (...) (22 years ago, 1-Oct-02, to lugnet.starwars)
