Thank you guys very much!
I really appreciate your comment. But it is really discouraging to hear that
TLC is not willing to change.
My concern is that their best products aren't available in stores!
WHY WHY WHY???
Who benefits from this policy? NOBODY and certainely not TLC!
--------DEAR LEGO------- Can we hope for common sense???????
A good little retailer could easely order around 2K of good sets and resell
them in NO time, and so on!
I would love to hear from TLC and/or Brad Justus ---PLEASE---
