rastascoob Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 You would think with it's popularity and the new movies this would be a no brainer. Why do you think this has never been done? Quote
k2theablam Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 I don't know for sure, but I would venture to guess because it's a direct competitor to Lego's most valuable IP License in Star Wars. Quote
Bold-Arrow Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 Doesn't Kre-O own the rights to Star Trek ? Quote
shadow010 Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 because Hasbro was the star trek right so they use the crappy kreo for it Quote
@rtisan Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 ^Those 2 guys nailed it. Here is a link to the Hasbro website for the U.S.S. Enterprise. It`s a shame that Hasbro has picked up some solid licenses like this instead of Lego. Off the top of my head, they have Jurassic Park (which really sucks; official Lego sets based solely on the movies would be wonderful, and their Dino theme couldn`t even compare IMHO) and Transformers. ***.I. Joe as well, though I`m not sure Lego would venture into that theme. The JP one is the hardest to swallow for sure, I`d love Lego sets based on the films. Would be amazing. Quote
jeff_14 Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 I have almost all of the Kree-o versions. Pretty cool, especially given that most sets come with a light brick, but the Enterprise is the standout. Quote
rastascoob Posted January 8, 2014 Author Posted January 8, 2014 Any time I see the kreo logo I know I'm in the wrong aisle so I have never seen there Star Trek stuff. I am not a trekie but I was thinking this would be a slam dunk but I guess hasbro beat them to it. Quote
kandykop Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 also I am wondering why no World of Warcraft!!! Quote
Achilles Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 Hey, Lego can't have ALL the licenses. But who knows what would happen in the future. However, as someone has mentioned, being as Lego does Star Wars, its hard to imagine them picking up another direct Sci-Fi license. Especially with the Disney acquisition of Star Wars and the Lego marriage to Disney. I however was particularly surprised how poorly the Mega Bloks World of Warcraft sets did. I really felt those would be a hot item. People are too busy grinding to build block sets apparently. Quote
Crustybeaver Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 also I am wondering why no World of Warcraft!!! I believe Kreo have the rights to that as well Quote
El Guapo Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 Sorry, Garfunkel. We don't hock Trek here. Quote
TheOrcKing Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 also I am wondering why no World of Warcraft!!!Mega Bloks has that license. Sorry. Quote
