What I don't like about it is that they changed the whole program. It used to be a subscription for kits 2 - 6, and you would automatically get the next set in the mail every month. But now, you have to buy the kits together, like kits 2 and 3, and then separately, kits 4 - 6. Also, for a higher price. The subscription used to be almost half the price for what all the prices are now.

I saw in a recent Lego club magazine that one of the upcoming MBA sets is going to be steampunk themed. It seems like a theme Lego could roll into that would attract a lot of attention. It is a personally a theme I would like to see and would enjoy. Are there any other people out there that would like to see something like that? I can't imagine it's so far off that Lego may have a theme that could be popular without having to license anything.

TOK:

Here's the article on The Brick Fan.

Steampunk is where it`s at! Just saying.

I`d love an official theme of any kind from TLG, and the MBA photos curtesy of Brickset make me very happy. Hopefully they will be for sale up here as well.

Sorry, what's MBA? Master Builders...? I might be a little slow, it is Monday morning :) I think Steampunk would be a great theme. A big untapped market for sure. Lots of possibilities for sets across all price brackets.

I added a link to the article from The Brick Fan and attached images to the main post. I was going to post about this myself but sadowsk1 got to it before me. Whatever, it's all good. Ha ha. :cheese: I still think this is pretty cool and one of the better things to come out of the MBA kits in my opinion.

I've added info, images, and tagged links for all four MBA sets currently available from Shop-at-Home. Unfortunately, they do not seem to be available in any other country aside from the United States and are a Lego exclusive. I couldn't add all images to the main post because there is ten pics per post limit.

I also would have been done a little quicker if my neighbor was not snoring so loudly I can literally hear him from here.

It's driving me up the f'ing wall! :ireful: I swear I could just :suicide:.

These sets are really cool.  I wasn't even aware they existed until recently due to them being US only.  I would have loved to have something like this when I was a kid, such a great concept.

Saw these at the Lego store last night but I'm not sure if I want to jump on them as their potential is relatively unknown.. Still. I guess I could sit on them for myself if they don't pan out... :)

I should have made a note stating all images are very large in size so it could take a while to load up all nineteen of them. I just added a little poll for everyone and would like to throw out the question of what you think about collecting and/or investing with the MBA kits.

I tried to post this reply much earlier but it didn't go through.

I do have one complete set of the last MBA series and I think these are much better. The older series is not selling for much of a premium. It is possible this might do well eventually because it might not be on investor's radar so it might be difficult to find in a few years. On the other hand MBA is not something most Lego collectors would be looking at owning, more for a very serious collector.
