But back to the original post, I will agree that the latest catalog is
disconcerting, the juniorized sets crowd out a lot that you and I maybe
interested in. But I think the catalog shouldn't be seen as the only
representation of the company's product line. For example, also not in the
catalog are the Scala and many of the Duplo sets, among other things that *can*
be found at the S@H website. The catalog can only be so many pages long (though
an argument could be made for different versions of the catalog, targeting age
ranges).

I think there is a Duplo catalogue...

Lego should do like model companys:
-produce the catalogue
-add in a younger age range catalogue
-and finally, a parts (bulk & special) catalogue

good idea?  The main one is free, the young age is free, the parts could be
$1.00?  The parts catalogue would allow them to put more of the bulk parts,
and more people might get it (consider the number of people who can order on
the net?).  thay can advertise the other catalogues on the order form!
