Hear the alarm bells TLC!
Christian has been the biggest Lego Fan on earth when I first got in touch with
him. While most AFOL people are just fans of Lego products (basically the good
ones from the past, hehe), Christian has really been a Fan of the Lego company
and ALL its products.
Now read his new opinion about 2001 Lego sets and the behaviour of TLC. I think
this is even more concerning than lots of other news I hear now and then.
Kind Regards,
Ben
