Everything I've heard, from parents, kids, numerous toy store employees at various stores have said that parents and kids unanimously *hate* juniorized sets. Sure they buy them anyway (...)

| | | | | (...) Yep, that's what I've heard too. The only way to really make much of a difference would be to get contact information for designers in Denmark and talk to them. I can try to do that, but no guarantees. It seems that when dealing with TLC, (...) (24 years ago, 25-Aug-00, to lugnet.general)

If I had a single brick for every Insectisoid & UFO set, as well as every sorry town-junior fire station that I've seen on clearance...I would...er...have a lot more Lego than I do now! p.s., A month or so (...)
