(...) *blinks* then what's a subtheme? I always thought that Insectoids and UFO were subthemes. Now I'm confused ^^; Kya (25 years ago, 2-Nov-99, to lugnet.space)

<SNIP> (...) Really? I´ve always said "space theme", "castle theme" etc. The system, I thoguht, was all sets with small bricks (duplo is not system). Then, inside the space theme, were several sub-themes like Blacktron. So, if Space is a system, (...) (25 years ago, 3-Nov-99, to lugnet.space)

Whoa! Now I´m confused :-) Is there anything you *don´t* know about LEGO? I agree that the term "classic" is an unofficial fan-created label. So, if it was called "LEGOLAND Space system", then perhaps it´s the theme LEGOLAND? --Tobias (...) product (...) (25 years ago, 3-Nov-99, to lugnet.space, lugnet.admin.database)

(...) Ugh... Tobias! Look what you have started here! :-) "LEGOLAND Space System" is, quite simply, every single space set. "LEGOLAND" is just part of the name.

(...) There's really no such thing (officially) as a "sub-theme" -- it's just an artificial term cooked up by us fans, just like "Classic Space" and "BURP" and "minifig."

My 2 cents about the Lego system/theme controversy... In the 60s, there were no themes, and all Lego toys (I think) were called Lego System (of play). In the 70s, the word system was not used to describe any Lego toys, or themes, etc - there were (...) (25 years ago, 3-Nov-99, to lugnet.space, lugnet.admin.database)
