I agree. I think if Lego would offer some standard town buildings they
would attract more girls. As well as have a happier town of minifigs. I can
build my own buildings, however the special parts would make it more
attractive.
This topic came up yesterday in a conversation I had with another mother
about how Lego could attract more girls. She suggested apartment buildings
or multiuse buildings.
Please don't provide more pink themes, I find it rather insulting. I beleive
that it, (the pink, Scala, Belville) provides a barrier to the other sets
rather than providing a bridge to the other sets.
