I'm theorizing here but I think they are possibly trying to scale down the
catalogs because of the emergence of shop.lego.com.  Even the themes that do
appear in the catalog many of them are incomplete and have a "Look for more
XXX-theme favorites online at www.lego.com/shop ".

It makes sense to me.  I think they will have to continue to have a printed
catalog but I think they will probably all be scaled back because of the
appearance of the online store (with the possible exception of the Holiday
Catalog).


Just one possible theory

Ugh- at least you can turn a physical page in less than 2 minutes.
