> * Would you buy LEGO toys for children 0-11? Y/N

Yes, bricks and thinks to build a real world, and let (my) child "work" with his
impressions of the world.

> * Why / Why not?

Because it is educational, meaning that (my) child will think, discover the
world and process this - it should also open his mind to see things, and
remember them for later to recreate them.

> * What feature(s) would you add if you were the marketing director of LEGO?

Whatever fits above. Real things. That is town train etc... but also SW and
harry potter - it is as real as the films. Get my drift?
The child would see more than action.
Technic would go for construction sites.

But such as Bionicle would not go - there is no reality in it.

We should keep in mind, that when we repair our home, our children will go along
with a plastic hammer.
Therefore - after being in the cinema, driving to town or a museum - that is
where the ideas come from.

> * How would you change existing LEGO products if you wanted to sell them for

More parts, less specialised parts, smaller service packs.

> * What new products would you launch?

More city/town - an more real buildings!
I would skip the idea of non-realistic trains and buildings.

> * What should LEGO be doing that it isn’t now?

More service packs - or smaller parts. I can think on 10000000 items I'd like to
buy as assecories.

hope so

To illustarte what I am thinking - then new house - 4880 if I am right - is a
good step. A real house - the interior is missing, but could be as "smaller
additional sets" - an option to customise a home!
More houses like that - with options.

And more sets with adiitional parts - as needed. E.g. the train sets for a car -
I do not need the baseplate (6x28 black), but I need the wheels and couplers -
I'd like to see those as single sets.
Same - more windows - I have enough doors. And more colour variations.

Other parts for that.

If I had a child (hope soon to have), HE would get some houses, or the street
(legend set), the guarded in and he would have a good town - next to that 2
green passenger cars (not available any more????) and similar engine and tracks
- wow - a small city with train.
SHE would get e.g. Beville 5848 - a set with options for HER.

This should state my point.

  Holy Mackerel! LEGO survey...
 
All, I know that some of you have attempted to fill out the survey announced yesterday on LEGOfan.org, only to be turned away with a message about the survey being complete. After some late night phone calls and early morning emails, I've been to (...) (21 years ago, 16-Apr-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego) !!
