Ooph!  Sorry but this catalog has me more excited for LEGO than ever.  I think
they are definitly moving in the right direction!  I am not a set collector, I
just want the parts for the most part so that might be the differance.

That would make a big difference...I haven't really examined the sets
parts-wise much.  I guess I am more of a set collector than builder.


I love the Mars stuff and I dig all the colors with the light purple and
verdigris.  I dig the aliens too.

I like the idea behind the Mars stuff...the aliens look too cute to me,
though.  I'm sure we'll see some great MOCs because of the new
colors...so that's good.


I think some of the Studio stuff is very cool and the new Action Team seems
pretty good too even if that dude does have cherry pie on top of his head.

The Star Wars stuff is better than I expected and we finally have
Stormtroopers!

Anyway I am excited and can't wait to get some of the new parts and colors!
