 Dear LEGO / 2047 (-10)
  Re: A minifig pack for EVERY theme
 
(...) Disagree. LEGO used to do a lot more minifig packs. Town, Space, Castle, Pirates, there was even a Wild West mfp. They've only recently started doing fewer of them. I'm guessing mfp's are not big sellers. They may be popular among the True (...) (25 years ago, 3-Apr-00, to lugnet.dear-lego) ! 
 
  Re: A minifig pack for EVERY theme
 
(...) I'd agree with this generally, EXCEPT, there is a tendency for the only female characters to be rare unique characters. Willa is about the only female I have seen that I don't want a bunch of (and she's a common figure - go figure). Give us (...) (25 years ago, 3-Apr-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)  
 
  Re: A minifig pack for EVERY theme
 
(...) I agree. We do NOT want 1000 copies each of (for example) Darth Vader, Anakin Skywalker, Luke Skywalker, Princess Strom, Queen Leonara, Willa the Witch, Basil the Bat Lord, the WW bad guys, or any other "personalized" and characterized minifig (...)

(...) That's (...) Rock (...) Well the orange guy (space engineer to me) is a rare fig that is only in the large set. He is supposedly the leader. If castle did the same type of set It would have a useless king. The princess could easily become a (...) (25 years ago, 2-Apr-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)  
 
  Re: A minifig pack for EVERY theme
 
(...) That's why I think common-characters-only packs would be a great solution. The rare special characters are still in the big sets, yet you can get a lot of the basic people. (25 years ago, 2-Apr-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)  
 
  Re: A minifig pack for EVERY theme
 
(...) Then explain the Rock Raiders fig pack. I for one never intend to buy any Rock Raider set unless it is at a steep discount but I will probably get at least 100 of those fig packs. (Space Marines, Pilots, and Engineers; Town Construction (...) (25 years ago, 2-Apr-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)  
 
  Re: A minifig pack for EVERY theme
 
(...) Ahh but that's the POINT. They WANT you to shell out $$ for the items. That's why all the rare characters are in the BIG sets... It's marketing... Dean -- Coin-Op's For Sale!: (URL) Lego Workshop: (URL) Lego Club: (URL) (25 years ago, 2-Apr-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)  
 
  Re: A minifig pack for EVERY theme
 
(...) Yes, definitely. Ideally, with significantly more of common characters (peasants, stormtroopers) than of "specialty" ones (Darth Vader, kings and princesses). In fact, it might even be reasonable for the minifig packs to _only_ have generic (...) (25 years ago, 2-Apr-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)  
 
  A minifig pack for EVERY theme
 
Greetings all, Here's an idea who's time is definitely overdue. With the reintroduction of Castle and the long-unseen and much-coveted maiden's cap returning in black, it's clear that every theme or sub-theme that TLG produces would profit greatly (...)

Right now, when I need some specific parts, I always print out LDRAW images and include those with my order forms so I'm sure I (...) (25 years ago, 2-Apr-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)
