Believe it or not, I'm taking the side of TLC here, and you guys aren't. At least
in one way.
"You guys" are basically assuming TLC is a bunch of clueless morons that haven't
seen the furor over this, or have seen it, and are too clueless to know how to deal
with it (won't comment on it).
I am assuming that they HAVE a clue, have seen the furor, and have no problems with
it. Or their Legal/Marketing Depts are full of people WAY too slow to act. If
they have a clue, and a brain, they WILL post something to lego.com.
