I have just spent 1/2 hour reading the "are you listening lego" thread: Here we have a large conversation about you, and we haven't even heard a peep out of you. (or at least I haven't) I've probably posted this same message 2 or 3 times before, but (...) (26 years ago, 3-Nov-00, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.dear-lego) !!

Well said Paul, I'd have to agree with everything you've said. Lego have reacted to competition of other toys that provide "quick" fun in an attempt to keep their share of the market.
