  Re: Four Mars mini-sets
 
(...) Santa may also have shopped at Wal-Mart - I've seen the "special trio" there too. (And for cheaper...TRU charged me $12 because it wasn't in the computer and that was the closest thing they could find...WM had 'em for $10.) They're cool little (...)

  Four Mars mini-sets
 
I've been watching, but haven't seen talk of the little LOM sets. hope I'm not being an echo. Two are recently available at our TRU in a "special value" trio including 7311. (but Santa brought them to our house, of course) the 2 boxed sets I have (...) (24 years ago, 26-Dec-00, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.general)  
 
  Re: Shop.lego.com is entirely stocked for 2001
 
(...) Ahhh... 8.222 cents is a good price... unfortunately the wrong price. I think you divided the wrong way as it is actually 12.16¢ per piece (1/8.222). Oh well... still better than the average Lego kit (by Lego). - Jeff (24 years ago, 26-Dec-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.year.2001)

(...) Does a third of these indicate success of the first two ? Maybe they think Eric.H and Henry.L are typical AFOLs. More research would indicate that most of us use lots of specialised elements in our MOCS. (...) Basic bricks would be cheaper for (...)

(...) Agreed. Let's see what the latest announcement plays out as... I suspect (even ignoring the non availability of graygreen/verdigris) that the current bulk packs cannot make you any of the statues (the legodude uses plates not in the bulk (...)

(...) This is a good point. They are quite expensive. I know that shop sized displays sell for a little less, and, although glued, are far more unique. One would have to know the numbers sold to know if the are a money spinner, but I expect it must (...)

(...) They're more economical than set-bursting (in time & effort, not necessarily straight cash), and more economical than the bulk packs. They're less economical than bulk tubs, but have a greater range of parts. <shrug> The only reason I haven't (...)

I don't think that these things are great value, in terms of brick count, but I'm delighted that they are being produced. While I love Technic, trains, etc..., with their special pieces, I like the back-to-basic-bricks approach for the sculptures. I (...)

That is, what are the goals of these, is it opportunistic sales (do it because they're relatively easy to develop and since they use mostly basic bricks, (...)

  Studios a white elephant for Lego
 
I think that the set idea is rather clever, but I think that it has limited appeal. The add on sets have very limited appeal to someone that does not have the main studios set and every store I have been to have tons of the add on sets in stock. The (...)
