Cool...
An Abraham Limcoln minifig...
Black slaves...
Black?
There's a problem here.
How would TLC deal with the issues of racism, slaves, etc.?
Up till now, there weren't any black-white-minorities issues, since all
minifigs were yellow. (Chinese, maybe? :-)
I remember some comments (can't remember who, though) about the fact that TLC
avoided racesim issues by not giving the minifigs a race at all.
So how would they make slaves, or slavers, without changing the minifigs faces?
Hmmm...
Any suggestions?

All minifigs are yellow so that any child, of any race can relate to them. no other toy on the market is as neutral as lego. for example the are 4 diffrent types of the same barbie doll- (...)
