press release
First three paragraphs (only because I dont want to cut&paste the entire
article):
NEW YORK, June 18 /PRNewswire/ -- LEGO Group, the worlds leading construction
toy manufacturer, today announces a partnership with Lucasfilm Ltd. to produce
building sets based on the Indiana Jones franchise -- one of the most globally
successful movie series ever made.
Three worldwide blockbuster films, and the highly anticipated May 2008 premiere
of the new Indiana Jones movie, will provide inspiration for a series of highly
iconic and action-packed build-and-play adventures of the rogue archaeologist
and hero.
There is such a natural synergy between Lucasfilm and LEGO enthusiasts of all
ages that makes combining our stories with the LEGO play pattern an easy
decision, said Howard Roffman, President of Lucas Licensing. We are thrilled
to have a chance to share the history and success of LEGO Star Wars with another
Lucas franchise.
