    Re: legends space set, my thoughts as to the reasoning based on what brad has said —Mark Neumann
   (...) I hear you brother! <snip> (...) Okay, sure. Who knows why? I mean really know why? Only the nice men/women in suits sitting in an office somewhere. (...) Jeesh! I wonder if people were this shook up when slopes were first introduced... New (...) (23 years ago, 27-Mar-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.starwars)
   
        Re: legends space set, my thoughts as to the reasoning based on what brad has said —William R. Ward
   (...) Well, Brad Justus (Senior VP of Lego Direct) spoke to this issue a little bit at BricksWest, and the understanding that I took from that is pretty much exactly what Jonathan was describing. It's for marketing reasons, not because of any (...) (23 years ago, 27-Mar-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.starwars)
   
        Re: legends space set, my thoughts as to the reasoning based on what brad has said —Coby Bassett
     (...) So Brad never denied that "Classic Space: The Movie" is currently in production? ! (23 years ago, 27-Mar-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.starwars)
   
        Re: legends space set, my thoughts as to the reasoning based on what brad has said —John Henry Kruer
     (...) Well, I'm a twelve-year old boy. And I would much rather prefer the 'blue boxes with wings.' I mean, does galaxy commander look like a box with wings! And (to get a bit off-classic-space) does mission commander look like one? I would much (...) (23 years ago, 27-Mar-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.starwars)
    
         Re: legends space set, my thoughts as to the reasoning based on what brad has said —William R. Ward
      (...) I think you'll find little disagreement when I say you're not a typical twelve-year-old boy. In fact I think you have more in common with us AFOL's than with most kids your age. I challenge you: Show <set:497 Galaxy Explorer> and some more (...) (23 years ago, 27-Mar-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.starwars)
     
          Re: legends space set, my thoughts as to the reasoning based on what brad has said —John Henry Kruer
      (...) Yeah, I have to agree with you. Anyway... I have one more day of school left (until the weekend), and I'll see what can be done. I probablly will only be able to ask a few kids (naturally, because I'm different I'm a social outcast), but I'll (...)

         Re: legends space set, my thoughts as to the reasoning based on what brad has said —Matt Hein
     (...) I'd like to see a 6985 Cosmic Fleet Voyager, or a Message Intercepter Base or even the original 918 become a Space Legend! Why does Lego even continue to bother with those new SW sets? In my opinion, I think SW is getting kind of old. Most of (...) (23 years ago, 27-Mar-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.starwars)
    
         Re: legends space set, my thoughts as to the reasoning based on what brad has said —Jeff Jardine
     (...) I was weaned on Classic space, and I'll be extremely disappointed if Lego abandons the SW line without producing an AT-AT and an Imperial Star Destroyer. As much as I want a new 928, I want an AT-AT and ISD more. (...) The line is already (...) (23 years ago, 28-Mar-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.starwars)
    
         Re: legends space set, my thoughts as to the reasoning based on what brad has said —Matt Hein
     (...) Star Wars is good stuff, but it really depends on the builder. As the old saying goes "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" or something like that. Anyway, I'm in SW for the parts, cuz they have a great selection. I'm not for theme (...) (23 years ago, 28-Mar-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.starwars)
   
        Re: legends space set, my thoughts as to the reasoning based on what brad has said —Bruce Hietbrink
     (...) I'd disagree with this as a reason. The whole Legends series is geared more towards the older collector. Your reasoning would also preclude the Breezeway Cafe, the Pizza to Go, the Guarded Inn, . . . Also the whole sculpture series (both SW (...)

        Re: legends space set, my thoughts as to the reasoning based on what brad has said —Mike Petrucelli
   (...) I work in a toy store. (as I have stated a few times.) A lot of parents refuse to buy Star Wars sets on the grounds that they are violent. These same people do buy Life on Mars. (which like classic space was/is geared toward exploration rather (...) (23 years ago, 28-Mar-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.starwars)
   
        Re: legends space set, my thoughts as to the reasoning based on what brad has said —Alexander Zwagerman
   <snip> (...) I talked about all this with a bunch of boys whom I teach. I am helping them build a minifig representation of our school and they were complaining about the SW sets to be just too much about obtaining the cool minifigs and not enough (...)
