BrickLegacy Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 What a tease I meant to ask this earlier, who designed the artwork for the cover? Was there any debate about which sets to include or showcase? Was this all on the publisher? Quote

Was there any debate about which sets to include or showcase? Was this all on the publisher? We all collaborated on the cover. No debate really...To put the most iconic LEGO set of all time on the cover was a no brainer. The publisher gave us a lot of leeway. It didn't hurt that the new STAR WARS movie including the Falcon was coming out a month after the book is released. 2 Quote

cissi Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 All the sudden having this thought... did you guys have to get permission from LEGO to use their name as the name of the book? I have heard something like their brand name is a trademark thing... Quote

brickmaster Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 Looks great. Congrats! Very exciting for you I am sure! Quote
BrickLegacy Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 Any hidden Easter eggs in the book like TRUTH, hotcakes or QFLL or did you keep it strictly professional ? :-) Quote

Obviously Mom and Dad get one too. At least they can say their kids were able to accomplish something with their lives! Jeff you might want to send me one copy , I will translate it to Spanish and then you can start selling it in all Latin America ! And all those new "investors" will buy from me to get all those EOL'd Sets they missed...... Win/Win !! 2 Quote

As I stated earlier, the emphasis was not on the tricks of LEGO investing or flipping. The publisher wanted a book on collectibles because that's what they specialize in. 2 Quote

I skimmed across and read that as "ruining BP" - was getting ready to retort something like "well, that's a bit premature, innit?" Looking forward to this. Edited October 30, 2015 by Battrax 1 Quote
