  Re: What Kids really want. Not Juniorization.
 
Wait, what do you mean by construction sets? Speaking of myself, personally, I can't stand dump trucks 'n stuff. I'm confused. (...) (24 years ago, 12-Mar-01, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.general)

  Re: What Kids really want. Not Juniorization.
 
There have been many times in life (College, Grad School, PhD, Jobs, Kids, etc) where I've been acutely aware that the _only_ reason I was able to persevere through and solve problems was due to the patience and methodical search approach I learned (...)

(...) Gack no please don't listen to this suggestion... The cheap polybag sets are useful for those who want to build up decent numbers of minifigs. Frank (24 years ago, 12-Mar-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)

  Re: The Refocusing of LEGO
 
(...) [lots of great commentary snipped] I agree wholeheartedly - you have an excellent way of describing "what's wrong with LEGO." I doubt very much that "maxifigs" will ever return, but I think the Technic figures might fill that bill nicely. (...) (24 years ago, 12-Mar-01, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.lego.direct)

  Re: What Kids really want. Not Juniorization.
 
(...) Since the tubs are a bulk dump of basic bricks, they're not necessarily the best indicator of piece:price ratio. One might compare, for instance, the Mos Espa Podrace, with 894 pieces for $99 MSRP vs the MB Aircraft Carrier, with about 1700 (...)

(...) I don't think that will happen. LEGO's usual design for polybags is 1 minifig and a small cart/backdrop/vehicle to go with him. I'm more concerned with getting more polybags out there than changing the way they make them. Especially since they (...) (24 years ago, 12-Mar-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)

So the lessons are: (1) TLC, don't put the HTO sets by the beer (or advise the stores not to put them by the beer), it doesn't even work on AFOLs, and (2) Mike, you need to get your priorities straight.

(...) LEGO is doing some experimenting/work in this direction -- they've released several items identified as HTO (high traffic outlet).

(...) That (LEGO's current HTO concept) is not what I'm talking about. As Mike said, $5 is not an impulse buy. Also, the current displays lack variety. One set is not an adequate selection for a really interesting display. I have also seen the Ninja (...) (24 years ago, 10-Mar-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)

Dear Lego, Some evesdropping from the Lego aisle at a Walmart in Northern Virginia last night. A father in his 40s was with his son about 10 or 11. The son wanted to buy a Roborider set. The father was discouraging him. Father: You don't collect (...) (24 years ago, 8-Mar-01, to lugnet.lego.direct) !!

  Re: What Kids really want. Not Juniorization.
 
I'm a little confused here. You don't want to waste time looking for the pieces but you want them all to be the same color and if they're pre-sorted into "minisets" you'd rather dump them all out into the box? When I built the UCS sets, it was the (...) (24 years ago, 5-Mar-01, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.general)
