Wow for me, too! 75%!! Good lord! I must confess I've not been following this
development because frankly, I'm more interested in building. I guess what
bothers me most is that Lego, like Pixar and many other companies and/or
entities which I've initially admired and respected, have become diluted and
their individuality compromised. Sometimes it seems like nothing stays pure.
Though I'll always love the brick, it will occasionally sadden me that it's no
longer a family thing.
