Sad..whatever happened to just buying a set because it looks like a great
set! or fun to build play with! For those of you who bought this set just so
you could make a profit later and took those sets away from people or kids
who would have liked to have it becuse it’s a great set ..well TO BAD they
are makeing another run!! Chris (who does have a copy and isn’t complaining
because I missed it or something)

You totally missed the point, Chris. The ship was already announced to be
re-released in dark blue which would have made it in no respect a less great
set for kids and anybody who simply enjoys building it. While on the other
hand “limited release” and “maersk blue” were clearly meant to catch the
attention of collectors. And so they did. But by revoking the limitation they
(TLC) will betray the collectors of an essential factor that made them buy
this set.
By the way, I’m speaking here in my capacity as collector, not as a dealer.
Not that that should matter at all...

Hey JoJo ..Yes I know it was going to be rereleased in the dk blue(I voted
for green I think) but there were plenty of folks who bought it not because
it was limited and wanted a collectors item but with the intention to make a
profit off of parts(the maersk blue) and again I say that in its self kept it
away from people who might have wanted in that color vs the new one . Chris
