| Well, this is just my opinion, but others have simillar ones. If lego starts making all these new sets and buckets with lots of gimmicks, they will have to lower quality/quantity of sets and the designs in favor of quantity/gimmicks, as they will (...)

Bring back sets/themes which have proved themselves (...) (26 years ago, 10-Oct-98, to lugnet.dear-lego)

| I guess I'll get into the fray... I think that it wouldn't hurt them to invest some in new molds for more colors. If at all. You don't need new molds for production, just change the color content in the plastic. As far as the sets go, here's an (...) (26 years ago, 10-Oct-98, to lugnet.dear-lego)
