I was hoping that the Ambassadors would make a new post to town, train, and announce, especially since they just announced a poll for Star Wars sets for 2009.

While we wait for their post, I might want to add that the suggested sets should be aimed at a younger audience. A poll on other Cafe Corner type sets would be nice as well for AFOLS only.

I might suggest action oriented sets; as not many kids would want to buy a school building unless it came with a school bus. I think firestations and police headquarters have done well, because they have action vehicles and themes.

(...) Yes, and I have some suggestions. If you actually built a LEGO town using only the sets released in the last few years, you would have to wonder why the town is in so much constant danger that it requires so many police stations, fire houses, (...)
