Is this something the AFOL can't do?


<major snippage>

It's a painstaking process and once again it's time
away from my family that if I'm going to dedicate to LEGO, I'd rather be
building.  Maybe I'm in the minority among AFOLs but if LEGO Direct is going
to consider the AFOL demographic when deciding a product (assuming they do
at all) I want it to be known that we don't all have the same resources.

Regards,
Paul

Yeeeowch.  Ok, sore spot, got it.  This is why I asked.  (I don't build many
trains you see...)  But really do you think you're a majority or a minority
of the LEGO buyer?  If you really must have one of these models it is still
a possibility.

But as for the rest of it, I do believe that LEGO is considering its fans,
and paying attention.  My god, just look at the product line, while they
aren't making everyone happy they are closer to the mark than ever before.

In fact I'd say pay attention to what is about to come from LEGO Direct.  My
guess is that LEGO is about to get more involved.
