Bill & All,

They could make it, but who'd buy it?  A couple hundred AFOLs would
jump at the opportunity, but the 12-year-olds would turn their noses
at it and head over to the Bionicle aisle.

Well, first off, I think it was more wishful thinking than anything.
Second, I think there is some worthwhile discussion especially since LEGO
seems to be in the habit of bringing out some older sets as of late. While
we do not know for sure if this is profitable or not for them, hinting at a
few wishes is not a negative thing.

As for Bionicle, who knows? I don't know if it is a fad, or the future, or
might one day sit on the self next to Pokemon on clearance. If they make
money making that stuff, fine, but if they can make some money doing what we
want too, even better. : )

YMMV
