Rich B Posted March 7, 2013 Author Posted March 7, 2013 Someone get the rock this guy has been living under off! Ha ha! Haha seriously Stephen, crawl out from under that rock!! Just kidding, man Star Wars is blowing away the poll, guess it is the best. Wait did I just say that.....lol Quote
Blackjack Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 Star Wars!!! I really like these get to know everybody better threads. Quote
redeemed763 Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 While I built many a star wars ship as a child long before the theme was released, I had entered my dark ages when they came out and now, simply due to the overwhelming quantity of sets, I sort of never bothered to start purchasing them. I guess I feel like I am not missing out on as much if I don't start getting them. Also, my wife is a very non-sw fan and I get a lot further with this hobby if I get stuff she likes too. As such, LOTR is my favorite theme, the movies are my all time favorites and I am thrilled beyond belief that they are actually making them. However, I must admit that SW is a much better fit for legos due to the lack of vehicles in LOTR, as it is mostly landscapes and MASSIVE structures that even large Legos just can't do justice. With SW, there are endless vehicles and spaceships to choose from to design, greatly improving the play-ability value of those sets. Quote
RunMan3 Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 My favorite theme is/will be the one which makes me the most money. None have made me any so far but I hope sometime in the future they will start paying off then I will know my favorite. Quote
Darth Lego Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 This will be hard to answer for many of you including myself. I'm wondering what Lego theme do you guys/gals like best from a collectors/builders standpoint? I'm going to list most of the themes and if your favorite theme isn't listed in the poll, (Limited # of slots.) please comment your favorite below. Quote

I am trying to add more poll options as it used to be a 12 slot limit and now is 16. Quote
Rich B Posted March 30, 2013 Author Posted March 30, 2013 This is going to be a runaway Yep, Star Wars always wins when this question is asked lol Quote

Darth Lego Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 Star Wars is lightyears ahead in first place. LOL. Quote
TheOrcKing Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 What about Space themes in general? Or Racers? I'm just saying, they are there. Quote
stephen_rockefeller Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 What about Space themes in general? Or Racers? I'm just saying, they are there.Just barely...... Quote
TheOrcKing Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 Just barely...... I guess so. Even though Racers has been around for 12 years, majority of the sets are small to medium sized sets and don't exactly stick out. Hold on, is the Poll just for current Lego themes? Maybe that's what I'm missing. Quote
TheOrcKing Posted April 15, 2013 Posted April 15, 2013 It took a while for me to figure it out but I managed to fix the poll in the main thread. (It was broken for some reason.) Unfortunately, if you had voted before, you will need to vote again. Sorry, but the data was reset for the update to work. The good news is the entire list is filled with choices! (16 that is.) Now you can vote for Wild West, Creator, and some others. Check it out! Quote

BuckeyeFanDan Posted April 15, 2013 Posted April 15, 2013 I voted for Monster Fighters (hard to beat the Haunted House IMO) but would have voted for the Winter Village if it had been a choice. The Winter Village is the one area where I will buy the new set each year as soon as it comes out and not wait for a sale. 1 Quote

The Winter Village is the one area where I will buy the new set each year as soon as it comes out and not wait for a sale. Agreed the Haunted House is on of the best Lego sets ever made in my opinion. The Winter Village sets are fantastic too. If I could add more than the 16 choice limit on the poll, the Winter Village theme would be another great choice to have there. It is one of the Lego best themes out there if you ask me. Quote
TheOrcKing Posted April 15, 2013 Posted April 15, 2013 Nice! Thanks man! I tried to change it from the original 12 I had to 16, but had some trouble. No problem, buddy. I had no idea what was wrong with it. The poll was there to see but for some reason when I went to edit the main post, it came up with "Add a poll to the thread". Say what? How could it still be showing if there was nothing to edit?! I work with code all the time and this one did not make a bloody bit of sense at all. Well anyway, I just ended up having to reset the whole thing and start from scratch by updating the original post with a 'blank' poll. I believe I consolidated every choice as best I could. Tried to stick with currently available themes. Quote

Haha yeah I'm not sure what happened or if I did something wrong before when I merged my original thread about favorite themes with Darth Lego's favorite theme thread. Anyways it looks good and the votes will slowly come back in over the next couple months as this thread bounces around the forums. I'm sure we'll see Star Wars take the lead again as it did before lol. Quote

And from the looks of it, Star Wars will reign supreme yet again. Quote
Seifer Posted April 15, 2013 Posted April 15, 2013 I'd vote for the Winter Village theme. I'm a big fan of the Christmas themed sets since they look really nice. Star Wars is very very close, but it still gets the second position. Quote
stephen_rockefeller Posted April 15, 2013 Posted April 15, 2013 Why were Prince of Persia and Atlantis left out?????? Quote
Seifer Posted April 15, 2013 Posted April 15, 2013 Why were Prince of Persia and Atlantis left out?????? I guess the author of the poll didn't see them as popular sets so they were left out. :) Quote
TheOrcKing Posted April 16, 2013 Posted April 16, 2013 I guess the author of the poll didn't see them as popular sets so they were left out. That and no more room. The poll is stuffed at 16 and it can't go any higher.I could replace the Architecture spot with: Aquanauts/Aquasharks/Hydronauts/Stingrays/Divers/Aquaraiders/Atlantis or just simply title it as Aquazone. How about that? Quote
TheOrcKing Posted April 16, 2013 Posted April 16, 2013 I went and replaced Architecture with Aquazone/Divers/Atlantis to cover the whole of aquatic themes over the years. Plus it seems like no one was going to vote for Architecture as being their favorite theme anyway. Quote
