Yes, perhaps it is. Ben is E2L

Thanks for elaborating on that!
I too knew that English was his 2nd Language and therefore
I endeavored to point out that the discrepancy may exist in translation.

Ben is E2L(1), (E)nglish as a (2)nd (L)anguage...
please keep that in mind, and sometimes that causes misunderstanding.

I tried too…
I hope I didn’t come across as impolite.
I like Ben and respect what he has to say, that’s why I wanted to clarify.

I'm in the camp that's glad any time Lego, in
any shape or form, (re)releases a good set,

Ah, ‘tis a fine camp to be in!
(Any good Lego is great Lego)

2 - More MOC sets please, and hurry!!!!
And that's all I am going to say about that.

WoW, Yah…
What’s up wit da?
I'd almost forgot!
Is the MOC line more infrequent than the Legends?
Are we only to expect 2 a year?


         Till then,

and thanks for that. Sorry if I used your post as a periodic reminder to
folks that not everyone is E1L and to keep it in mind....

My guess is that LD was waiting to see how well the first one did
before committing to doing any more.  I'm sure there is a large
lead-time for new sets like this, and since it was kept secret until
its release, we have no way of knowing how long that takes.

After the success of the Blacksmith Shop, I suspect LD contacted other
MOC-makers and as we speak are working on the new sets which will be
out when the marketing astrologers declare it to be an auspicious
time...  But I predict that the "pace" of MOC sets will increase,
assuming that the program is continued.
