Go to a store right now. There's practically no selection for any traditional
themes! Things get a little better if you order directly from LEGO, but it
still doesn't compare to earlier years.
Town- nothing, unless you find old City Centre. Which isn't Town at its best.
Castle- nothing, unless you find old Knights Kingdom. Basically limited to S@H,
and even there they only make two sets.
Space- nothing, unless Life on Mars is space. Insectoids from S@H.
Pirates- nothing at all in most stores, nothing but rereleases at S@H.
Aquazone- nothing, though Alpha Team 2002 is an acceptable substitute.
Western- nothing at all in stores, nothing but rereleases at S@H.

Harry Potter makes up for the discontinuing of Royal Knights, Black Knights,
Dragon Masters, Wolfpack, and Dark Forest? You're crazy.

I agree. The Blacksmith House is going to be my first S@H purchase since they
stopped printing the catalogs in Canadian dollars. (It will cost me $80 total,
not $40)

Does the LEGO Soccer theme have any true fans? It doesn't seem to ever be
discussed on this site.

Only if they want to use S@H. And I don't.

I thought Jurassic Park III was the best movie of 2001, but those LEGO kits are
horrible. They have very little resemblance to the actual movie.
What Dino theme car are you talking about?

Arctic is still in production? Why is it all but gone from stores? I think
LS@H is trying to create a LEGO monopoly here... :(

But Johnny Thunder isn't a Jurassic Park character. How would you feel if
Johnny Thunder was included in a Harry Potter or Star Wars kit?

I like Martians too, but what do they represent in Castle?

That doesn't make any sense. But if it did, it wouldn't be a good thing.

Again, this S@H monopoly thing is really worrying me!
