Ben,
I'm curious about one thing, and I think you're in a position where you could
check this out. It seems the price point on all of the SW Legos sets are
similar to the non-SW sets, which is perfectly understandable, except that TLG
has to pay Lucasfilm a licensing fee. I was wondering if TLG itself was taking
a smaller profit from each SW set as compared to their non-licensed set. Maybe
if you could compare Big K's profit from SW sets to non-SW sets we'd then know.
Thanks,
Kevin
