- What do you think LEGO would never do that you’d love to see?
|
1. More large-sized ($150+) UCS / Model Team sets.
For example: a life-sized Darth Vader bust (like the Darth Maul). (In fact, I
was very surprised that such a set was not released this year, in conjunction
with Episode III, which was all about the transformation to Darth Vader.)
A $400-$500 UCS AT-AT like D. Eaton’s or S. Sullivan’s.
A $400-$500 UCS Millennium Falcon.
Other examples of sculptures: more sets like the Sopwith Camel and Lunar
Lander. Historic landmarks like the US Capitol.
2. A greatly expanded fan-model MOC line (e.g. like the Blacksmith Shop set).
This would actually be a perfect way to accomplish point 1 above: Make
contracts with prominent AFOLs for their models, such as Gareth Bowler’s or Reto
Geiger’s wonderful Star Wars UCS ships. The development is already done. In
many cases, the instructions are already done. To minimize costs, make online
instructions only. Maybe this can be performed through the LEGO Factory (once
pieces no longer have to be purchased in bags, which dramatically increases the
final price). Contracting AFOL models for production would also greatly
increase the community’s sense of “connection” with TLG.
