If enough people contact Lego and ask to have Blacktron re-released, it just

Haven't heard this one before.

Talked to TLG many many times, and because the way marketing works, they're
not going to do it.  The only possibility is a slim chance of a re-release
in limited quantities of original (not new) sets.  But it *is* TLG we're
talking about, so fat chance.

I was going answer this with a 'dream on'. Then, I thought maybe I should say
this should really be posted to lugnet.dear-lego. Then, I thought maybe if say
roughly 4.310682739 billion people were considered 'enough', it could possibly
work. Then, I thought maybe this was a post by someone new who had never
engaged in this discussion before. Then I noticed I was all out of peanut
M&M's which were no doubt doing their best to make me even more fat. Then I
noticed I took too much time to consider all these things, and Tim beat me to
the answer.
