There are over 550 million firearms in worldwide circulation.

That’s one firearm for every 12 people on the planet.

The only question is: how do we arm the other 11?

Hello friends.

I have almost same impression for the “Gun-Running” of TLC.

I can not express very well the reason why knight’s swords and pirate’s cutlasses are O.K. but machineguns and missiles are NOT. Those are same in that weapons people fight with to save his familiy, country, pride, or life. So I can’t do why a canon is okay but a bazooka is not.

Neverthless, I’ve admired and respected the policy TLC holding on to until recently, so I really disappointed these new products at this point. I have still clung to a delusion that LEGO is STELLER EDUCATIONAL TOY, thus I could not hide my disappoint to see TLC gladly and proudly produced Awful-Exo-Force-Heavy-Weapon-Arms.

What ? Do you wanna ask me Japanese LEGO fans’ reaction for this problem ? Okay. At the end of last year, some of my friends told me in anger...

“Hey, hey, hey, Kotaro ! You should post LUGNET NOW ! And tell AFOL that... WE WONDER TLC really believes those UGLY-HEAVY-CONSTRUCTION-MACHINES as ANIME-MECHS !!!!?”

Hmmmmm, I must report Japanese may have a little different view point from you, friends. :-)



HAPPY NEW YEAR EARL-0 / Kotaro Ono

P.S. By the bye, Thank you to remember my modern weapons built a long ago. It may be not a bad idea that I will offer many guns-designs to S@H if THE LEGO FACTORY would go on well. Hehehe.....B-p

(...) I agree 100% with you Tobias. I am greatly disappointed that LEGO is caving in and selling toys that resemble modern weaponry. Some will think that I am a hypocrite for saying that, as I myself build nothing but military-themed creations. (...) (19 years ago, 30-Dec-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
