 | | Skeleton Henchmen
|
|
Dear Lego/Lego Direct, Is there any chance you might release special minifig sets with Ogel's skeleton henchmen? I would buy many of them. I really like the figs, but with only two in each Ogel Command Center, I don't imagine I'll be getting many (...) (24 years ago, 19-Mar-01, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.dear-lego)

Strange question in the subject line. Marketing is always equal to greed, no matter if it is made by Coca-Cola, Nestlé, Ford or Lego. Nobody offers you a product to make you happy. No, of course they want to make money. Then, of course it's easier (...) (24 years ago, 19-Mar-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle, lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) Good point Tim. If the sellers wanted to be "fair", they should sell their items at market value on E-bay. This sometimes jacks the price up, but other times its a steal. Besides, if they were truly worried about making a "profit" on selling (...) (24 years ago, 18-Mar-01, to lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) I considered the caste idea, but as there are only two types of Martians, w/ ears or w/out ears, I doubt that is the case. *cough*please-see-my...an*cough*. That dealt somewhat with the issue. I believe there are Guards, Pilots, Scientists, (...) (24 years ago, 17-Mar-01, to lugnet.dear-lego)

Not only that, Its getting v. difficult to get Lego in the UK now. Big stores only stock a few lines. Why do the Americans get privaliged sets.

Lego should remember that to get today's parents to buy their children lego, they need to make the sets as interesting and as high quality as the one's the parents received when they we're children. Steve Lane (24 years ago, 15-Mar-01, to lugnet.dear-lego)
