Well, since it is Oct. 1, 2007 today. I have decided to write-off 2008 as a
DEAD year for LEGO trains. The question now is when in 2009 is the 'new' system
gonna be released or when will 'we' AFOL's see pictures, set numbers and prices
etc.
I have to say around Oct. 1, 2008 or sooner we will see images 'leaks' from
sites like 'Eurobricks' showing the 2009 LEGO line.
If I was the CEO of LEGO or the Head of LEGO Marketing dept. or head set
designer in charge of the LEGO Train system. I would try to RELEASE the line in
mid OCT/NOV 2008 as a NEW 2009 product line. Why?
Simple answer ...2008 $$$ Holiday shopping...money, show me the money!
One other thing LEGO should make a LEGO TV AD for LEGO trains and a lot of PR.
My 'ONLY' wish for the NEW POWER LEGO TRAIN System... I 'hope', that I will be
able to run my old LEGO train cars. Such as 4.5v line, 12v, 9v. on the new
system.
