(...) I think more important is the first bit from the quote, which says that LEGO owns all merchandising rights. Any company that wants to make Galidor toys, has to get a license from Lego. Which means that Lego is on the upstream side of any (...) (23 years ago, 6-Nov-01, to lugnet.year.2002)

(...) Oooo...ooo!!!...!!! Okay, I have to accept that the classic Town, Space, Castle & Pirate division of product has long since changed. They are still around from the old Shop @ Home occasionally, but TLC did a NICE job on the new Alpha Team (...) (23 years ago, 5-Nov-01, to lugnet.year.2002)

(...) I think this means they have most major toy categories locked up (including the "action figure" segment). On the one hand, it means they will be able to stand out better (unlike the Bob the Builder sets, as I mentioned previously), but on the (...) (23 years ago, 2-Nov-01, to lugnet.year.2002)

(...) As far as it goes, I think the Droidekas are quite pathetic. However grey battle droids will be nice for a change. Yes, I totally agree that those of us who are not Harry Potter Fans are suffering-hopefully temporarily! (23 years ago, 1-Nov-01, to lugnet.year.2002)
