We at Lugnet have, IMO, been far too critical of TLG. The opening page says
that Lugnet "has been called `the friendliest place on the internet". Not to
TLG. Perhaps new sets don't look as good, but many, if not most, lugnites buy
sets for the parts. Lately we haven't been giving TLG the credit they deserve.
They have an extremely difficult job, trying to please such a large audience.
The so-called "SPUD" seems to be the ultimate solution. The younger audience
can use them more easily, and the Lego expert can find other uses for them. But
only if he/she wants to. Lego is evolving, and so must our mindset. There are
wonderful creations out there. Let's build more.
