I think I can still provide something that would work, though: a scale model of a real-world structure...Miniland (...) (18 years ago, 27-Nov-06, to lugnet.ambassadors, FTX)

For me alone, what appeals to me in regards to LEGO is, I like the colours and I like architecture, so combinding them both into one is pretty cool. I would love a tub or (...)

| (...) Now there is a tough question! I think a Main Street-type set, but with more detail would be fantastic. Maybe with some shops, a bank, post office - these would really add some actual town buildings to all the police/fire/construction sets. (...) (18 years ago, 27-Nov-06, to lugnet.ambassadors, FTX)

If it's huge and costs $500, nobody will buy it, but if it's a regular-size globe like you see in schools, I can see that going for (...) (18 years ago, 27-Nov-06, to lugnet.ambassadors, FTX)

I too would love to see more realistic castle theme stuff like what I found in the miniland at Legoland Deutschland this past September, except in minifig scale (for affordability reasons).

| I think that they should bring back the older series and redo them. Come on, you can come up with some many new ideas for the old themes. For example. Paradisa sets (which I have been buying a lot of in the last 6 months) should be redone. I have (...) (18 years ago, 27-Nov-06, to lugnet.ambassadors, FTX)
