ive been thinking about why lego has been trying to jonuorize everything so
this is what i can up with
1: lego is trying to make lego at it's aimed age (4-12) and older lego sets
have more appeal to older people that have been using lego most of their lives.
2: lego is running out of really good ideas that do not require 'Specalty

this is only a theroy based on what i belive is true
i could be completely wrong
