Hi all,
The CITY team at LEGO would like input on potential lines for 2010 and, as the
LEGO Ambassador for LUGNET I'm asking you to help. Please use the following
format to submit suggestions and check to see if someone has already covered
your idea, in which case just respond to their post indicating that you like it.
Name of Theme:
Short description of Theme:
Three possible sets for Theme with descriptions:
1)
2)
3)
These should be submitted in this thread by the 28th July and any suggestions
you make will become the property of LEGO upon submission to them by me (if you
don't wish this then please don't respond here).
Thanks for your help and please use the 'form'.
Tim
