|
| Looks like The Lego Group is finally cutting corners (literally) in order to compete with cheap clone brands. Is this the end of good-quality Lego?, or is this merely a bad batch of product? -HRH (21 years ago, 15-Nov-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.dear-lego, FTX)

| (...) Okay.... what happened? Did Lego hire fired workers from clone brands like MegaBloks, Best Lock? This is really sad..... I think each of us should start making emails and letters expressing our concerns as loyal Lego customers. (21 years ago, 15-Nov-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.dear-lego, FTX)

|
| Hi all, This is from a friend of mine, Gareth Bowler: Got into my first 2004 sets today; the MINI star destroyer set, and promptly scrapped them for parts, only to find, to my shock and dismay, that the colors don't match. Further more, the studs (...) (21 years ago, 15-Nov-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.dear-lego, FTX) !!

| | | | | creator line
|
| It would be cool for lego to put out a creator style space set; This could accomplish 5 things: 1) as a creator series set(s) it wouldn't necessarily directly compete with the current Star Wars line (they did Mars sets-why not?) 2) it would be a (...)

| Dear Lego, I noticed 8453 is listed on Lugnet as costing $20,-. As it's EUR 24,95 in dutch shops I thought I'd compare the S@H price: US: $19,99, NL $29,45!
