semi-decent quality sets are still being produced. Though I do think TLC
will be around for another two decades at least, I don't know what kind of
toy company they will change into. At the rate they are going, they seem to
*want* to be like Hasbro and Mattel; they have so many different lines that
are so unrelated. All I know is that as long as they make the brick in some
way shape or form, even if they are marketing other plastic garbage, I will
buy from them. And I bet everybody else here will too.
