Why would I buy a copy of Zeppelin IV today, if I know I
can get it next week?  The answer is surprisingly simple.... because I
*want* it.  I never need it.

Think of Zeppelin IV as the 10020 engine.  If the design and execution • are
strong enough, you can be selling the same product a generation later • having
never taken it out of production.  I'm not saying that LEGO *should* • do
this, only that this is another way in which to look at marketing • products
like these.


By Zepplin IV are you referring to set 5956 Air Zeppelin?
Were there 3 other Zepplin sets?

lawrence

(...) I guess I'd ask the same question about a music CD. Typically when a good CD is released, the majority of sales are in the first few days and weeks. Then they trickle off until the item eventually comes to be considered 'back catalog' and (...) (23 years ago, 23-Feb-02, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.market.theory)
