I always liked the classic bug. I am not sure how it would sell in the USA, but classic is always good.

I do think offering copies of new cars with the dealers would be a great specialty set. Same with the airlines, copies of the planes people rode on would sell well also (through the airline store, and/or in the terminals as well in mini form)

I find the tourism market is always good, and if people can get some future use out of their buy it now, not sure why I bought it. That works as well.

Hobby market is good as well. In that case the Delorian would sell well. I personally love that car, but I am not sure the “kiddie” fueled market for toys would work well on that one.

The Kubrick idea of making grab type “super hero” and other LEGO based toys was weird, but seemed to catch on quick. Shame too, LEGO was the founder, but other companies are grabbing revenue off of the “brick” design idea. I am sure kids are grabbing up the Kubrick figs just to use with their LEGO sets.
