a blank canvas.  New universe every day, New character every day.  Would
that be more inspiring to creativity and more memorable in our childhood?
Is semi-closed ended theme yet familiar sets  better than an open ended theme?

I still would prefer the Classic Space sets.  Mostly because of the reason
you posted above - the "blank canvas."  I have a gut feeling that Lego
Direct will re-release the Galaxy Explorer, and I'm gonna buy that the
instant it comes out!
