I'm thinking with LEGO movies and even Saturday morning cartoons, that just
means more sets. Basically the movies would just be long advertisements for
their products, so hopefully it will push them to sell more sets. It's kind
of like the Power Rangers or Pokimon, the shows are just ads to sell the
kids more stuff. And it seems to work real well, just ask my 3 year old.
He's seen maybe two episodes of Power Rangers in his life, but he knows all
the toys and the names.
Keep your finger's crossed, maybe more advertiser the mini-figs have, more
sets for us.
