Is there a group that
is underrepresented?

Based on this brief discussion, I
don’t get a warm fuzzy feeling that 9v train fans are being represented. While
it is mentioned that the Save 9v Trains campaign has been around for awhile,
Nelson’s reaction seemed (to me) to be more of a “Oh, yeah! We forgot about
that. Thanks for the reminder”, instead of a “No worries, we’re actively
working on it.”
One of the things that I’ve been hoping for from either the Ambassadors or from
some other official Lego rep, is some sort of concrete announcement about the
fate of 9v. Either a definite, yes, it’s being kept in production, or a
definite, no, stock up while you can.
At some point last year it was mentioned that Lego would make a decision late in
the year based on sales. We’ve seen some cool product releases since then that
can be interpreted as 9v sets, which keeps up the hope, but still nothing
specific. Motors are still available, and track is still available, but for how
long? Is Lego still trying to make a decision regarding 9v, or have they come
to a conclusion?
Is it possible for the Ambassador group to get us a definitive yeah or nay
answer? I’m not looking for inside information about upcoming releases, or
salary information about employees, just a simple answer to a simple question.
Will Lego continue to produce 9v train products for the foreseeable future?

It is quite possible that few train builders applied last (...) (17 years ago, 27-Jul-07, to lugnet.ambassadors, FTX)

But if it was based on a voting system imagine what would happen; Would people start going to forums and campaigning-- or worse, mudslinging to get votes? I can see that getting really (...)
