Dear Lego,
I posted this to this site in hopes that a plan similar to this was in the
works. I know and have read about a lot of interest in a reissue of classic
castles. I thought that lego would concider it if they could jazz up the
products a little.
Also while I have your attention, please do not offer sets in one part of the
world and not the other. It is a real pain trying to get promotional sets
from Shell in Europe or a candy company in Japan. Private dealers make all
the money and I have to have these sets so ...
Everyone knows the man who dies with the most toys wins.
very respectfully,
herko
