  Custom MOC kits (was: Re: Brickmania calls it quits on custom model kits)

  Re: Custom MOC kits (was: Re: Brickmania calls it quits on custom model kits)
 
(...) For the record, I dispute that TLC is "great at designing sets which appeal to kids or JFOLs". I think we all can recite a significant list of recent designs that, based on shelf dwell time, appear to be flops. If we wanted to, but I don't (...)

That's bad for TLC one of two ways: If we're a significant part of the market, make us sets we want to buy at full price and don't take the hit on margins, because we're big enough to (...)

  Bulk Ording Downside?
 
I just wanted to voice my concerns about the aparent downside to the Lego Company's new method of selling parts. While I love the idea of being able to order bulk parts, especially when they are special parts the you normally have to buy several (...) (24 years ago, 3-Aug-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) I hesitate to agree with your opinion on the matter, John. I'd be more impressed if the current bulk orders were more compelling in terms of items offered, quantities available, and price.

Well, it seems that we're [1] not the only country to have this side of TLG exposed...For an earlier example of this policy of TLG towards 'Boy' and 'Girl' toys, as distinct from childrens toys, have a look at: (URL) for the text component of the (...)

Just to set the record straight, this was actually requested on June 22 via email and not during the FTF discussion on July 19, and it was not a mere "suggestion" that LD "might" want to offer some clarification, but rather a very serious (...)

  Re: Bulk Sales in the 21st Century
 
(...) Absolutely. TLC makes money whether we buy bricks or sets, either from retailers or directly from TLC. The question becomes the number of middlemen involved in the transaction.

One minor problem with all this...If TLG were to decide to do this, then they would end up putting a sizeable percentage of their machinery to work on the production and filling of customer orders.
