        Mr Brad Justus.

Dear Sir/Madam,

   I would like to respectfully suggest the following two ideas for new ranges.

Firstly,  I would like to suggest that you consider a range of sets based on
vehicles in  Gerry Andersons Thunderbirds series.  This series has
experienced a revival in the UK recently and I feel that Lego(R) models
based on it would be a market winner.  The aulity of your  Star-Wars
adaptations was very good and I feel that you woud be able to do the same
for a Thunderbirds range.  The series itself presents many ideas for
inovative sets and other Anderson series could be used as the basis for
extending the range.

  My second suggestion concerns a new space range. 2009 will be the 40th(?)
aneversiary of the Apollo Moon landings.  I also belive it is when the
current Star Wars licence expires?  TLC/TLG  should in my view consult with
NASA as to the possiblity of a range based on the Moon Landings for 2009
when the Star Wars licence expires. The consultation could also  focus on a
Mars-Base theme as well (given current NASA projects).

Both of these themes could easily be supported by existing part mouldings
whilst still providng scope for new designs.

I look forward to you considering these ideas

Yours hopefully,

Alex Farlie
