Dear Brad:

Once again some of us in the AFOL community are up in arms about a series of
releases that appear to be geographically specific to Germany,  or to Europe.
I am repeatedly outraged that we AFOL are not promoted to or kept within the
loop of available release information.

I think you might catch a few more flies with honey than with vinegar or
vitriol. What exactly is your right to this information? I didn't see an
insert in the last set I bought promising that I was going to find out about
everything everywhere that TLC was doing, did you?

P.S. Let there be no further (Europe only) Guarded Inn #6067, or (U.S. only)
Forestmen's Crossing #6071 debacles...

Debacle? What debacle?

And I suppose you want all the Kabaya sets released worldwide as well, whether
or not people outside Japan actually want that candy (I certainly don't care
for it as candy, it's rather disagreeably tangy for american tastes)? Who
should cover the losses when they don't sell to the mundanes?

Or is it that you think we should get a special channel? How much are you
willing to pay to get them?
