Nothing can ever replace the original, but there is a demand for, a market for
and thus potential profit in releasing a classic series. If TLG just
monitored this network, they could formulate a group of sets to produce.
Based on the demand of certain sets and themes.
I hope to go through Enfield this Spring and will try to drop a note on the
big man's desk, in box, under his door, windshield... wherever
I just want the old castle sets. The castle styles are different, less
ornate, but no less interesting then the modern castles. I build the models
and display them. I admire those who can create massive structures. I only
get creative with the smaller sets and the minifigs.
I respect your wishes not to devalue your collection. So maybe they can make
some changes, but bottom line is legos are for fun - profits are a bonus for
some unimportant for others.
very respectfully,
don herko
