Great magazine...My article "looked" great. It was about the 10188 and was written several months ago. I wrote about the 75159's possible influence on the 10188. I assumed that it was a completely different set. I sure look like an a s s now. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly, but it won't be happening any time soon - What do they have left on their agreement, 6 or 7 years?

Lego Templar Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Possibly, but it won't be happening any time soon - What do they have left on their agreement, 6 or 7 years?Yeah Lego letting go of their number one seller and Disney giving up free money. Maybe in a parallel universe but not here and I highly doubt ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpinemaps Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 I thought Han looked like a reseller being bent over by TLG. I can't help if that's how you take that. As I said, he's looking for a piece he dropped. I have no idea what you're talking about. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redcell Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 If LEGO had never licensed Star Wars - none of us would be here.Sure, but it's a big jump from that to the notion that without SW, Lego would crater. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was only meant as a reminder to the power of Star Wars, and the influence that it has. Crater or not, the impact SW has on a brand should never be disregarded. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Trump should choose his hairdresser as his Vice-president, because that person KNOWS how to take on the tough issues. If they can handle that mess they can handle anything. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Brule Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Trying to say this is nbd because Star Wars is an old property seems a bit naive. Look at the bigger picture. LEGO has shown they have no reluctance to rerelease an exact set that retired 9 months prior. That means anything in your inventory could be rereleased at anytime. Of course this won't happen with every set, just the good ones that people WOULD BE willing to pay a premium for if the set weren't otherwise available. Some are too entrenched to see the big issue though. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fossilrock Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Hahha.. Yeah, just wait and watch. I'm sure they already have the marketing team working overtime, while they come up with catch names for sets like "City Hall", "Green Market" and "Spooky House" that they'll release next year... Meanwhile their designer staff was laid off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
