‘VARIANTS’ -Are- going to happen…
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow,
:::But Someday:::
And thus, I feel adamantly inclined to persuade TLG,
and Lego Direct, to consider my supplication to have
set # 375/6075 become the first ‘Variant’ in TLG’s
esteemed line of Classics. ((In Dark Gray of Course))
http://guide.lugnet.com/set/375_2
(I believe that models being remade into ‘Variants’
would be better suited to fall under the banner of
“Classics” rather than “Legends!”) Cause after all,
if it t’was a true “Legend” it wouldn’t have to be
remade with an alternate color scheme.

^-Following the concepts in the post above
I see no reason why this wouldn’t be the
ideal choice for the first “Classics-Variant.”
After all, the first Legend was of Castles
decent, and the first MOC was also of Castle
heritage. Accordingly, to continue this positive
trend, the first “Classics-Variant” should follow
suite.
So here’s the deal, let’s let TLG know what direction
they should explore regarding future “Variants!”
~Example:
Like an all tan hull of a 6274 Caribbean Clipper
with light blue trim and royal blue sails…

(or)
A sand green variant for the Deep Freeze Defender
with brown and dark red trim along with a black canopy.

Here’s two great example of variants for Pirates and space!

?Others?
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ What’s your choice for the ideal ‘Variant?’
¤Sincerely,
--==RïçhårÐ==--
(Yes, I do yield any/all rights to the creative ideas/concept
inherent within this *imploration in the hopes that these
imaginings become one day tangible!)
*is this even a word?
(seriously, is it?!?)
