Follow-up: In the Danish TV News, in two interviews,
the new CEO said, that most of the production would probably be moved to
China (where Click-its and many parts are already made)

well, i weathered the color change, & lego ultra-juniorization/B.U.R.P etc.
garbage, but this might break it for me. Lego, you darn well better
absolutely NOT use slave labor & conditions!!!! (although thats probably
what theyre counting on to cut costs by going to china. I dont wanna hear
about poor abused children being forced into making one of the best toys
invented FOR children. way to go Lego, you really tick me off.

Yes all that and now the possibity that MegaBlocks and Lego being made in the
same manufacturing plant. Theyll just take the better ones and put them in
the Lego bin with the poorer ones going to the other knock offs.

Im just shocked...I cant even begin to say what this means to me....other
than I guess the market for old Lego collections will just continue to go
through the roof. sigh
When will it ever end?

As sad (wrong depending on how ones sees it) as it may sound that TLC is moving
production to China it *IS* the way of this century. Expect to see a lot of
this occuring for the rest of our lifetime! 1st world countries *CAN NOT*
compete against the wages of those countries. That is off coruse the way of
capitalism. Im not saying it is wrong, that is just the way it is.
Case in point, today on Nationa Public Radio they had a segment of the DRUG
ROUTES. Basically colombia drug lords are now using the central american
corridor to bring drugs up to the USA. Nobody stops them (governments, local
police, the people) becuase if a fisherman who earns $10 per week help
transport some drugs from one port to the next he gets a $1,000.00 reward.
With that amount of money his family is set for the year!
It is disparelty of wealth that allowed cheap labor to grown in certain areas
of the world. So dont blame TLC for going where everyone else is going. If
they dont they wont be competitive and if they can not be competeive then say
good bye to TLC!
You and I and everyone else on this board dont have the power to change the way
stuff is so dont bother. Just be happy that TLC is doing things (which you amy
not agree on) to keep itself alive and making the brick.
You know kids todays are not into the brick as we were. Yes it has its
following but the brick in the US cant really compete against the SONY
Playstations... =)
