(...) Here's an Idea: Classic Space! Or how about this one: Town! Oh well, those are probably fantasy, but here's an interesting idea: How about a printed element (1x2) with a computer screen with the brickshelf logo on it? That would be neat. KL (24 years ago, 8-Aug-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) While that would be kinda neat, I hope they don't get too caught up in licensing other people's ideas, though. They'd be losing the LEGO 'brand' that they've been working hard to establish. I'd much rather see something they came up with on (...) (24 years ago, 8-Aug-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) Oh, couldn't agree more. I hope that with the new Potter line, and whatever the future holds, Castle doesn't go by the wayside like Space did for SW. I would be tickled if TLG licensed others' ideas, but continued to pump out their own system (...) (24 years ago, 8-Aug-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)

Word! Classic Space and town re-makes would be fantastic!!! They could even follow the example of the G.I.Joe accessory packs that issued old accessories in new colors, can you imagine some of your old favorites with new color schemes? It'd be (...) (24 years ago, 8-Aug-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) Is there anything stopping Lugnet or Brickshelf from commissioning one of these anyway? Last time I checked, white 1x2s were on the bulk buy (if not at Lego.com, at least on Pitsco-Lego-Dacta). How tough would it be to get a flexographer to (...) (24 years ago, 8-Aug-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)

Wait a minute! (...) Arctic is just like Rock Raiders, divers, etc. They make 'em, advertise, sell 'em, and dump 'em. They don't even bother to make new sets! (...) Key word, opinion. Although there are less, I prefered how they added to the clasic (...) (24 years ago, 8-Aug-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)

If licensing one or two lines also forces them to create some acceptable designs, then that is a good thing. Of course we (...) (24 years ago, 8-Aug-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)
