Dunno. I sure hope that the recent trend in licencing we've seen with TLC
won't detract from their original products. Lego would cheapen, IMO, if
their products became all licensed (Disney, Harry Potter, SW, Spielberg,
etc). TLC should keep its originality, that's part of what makes Lego Lego.
Seeing licensing is neat, but it shouldn't be a substitute for their own
designs, nor should it be seen as the answer to their declining popularity,
which is a direct result of juniorization.
