AmperZand Posted July 15, 2009 Posted July 15, 2009 A panel of experts and a survey of the UK public found LEGO to be the 8th best brand out of 1400 that were originally considered. Brands were ranked on the basis of quality, reliability and distinctiveness. Full story from the BBC news site. Not bad, eh? Apologies if this has already been posted or is inappropriate here.

Derek Posted July 15, 2009 Posted July 15, 2009 That is fantastic! Considering the other mainstream companies and brands on that list, this can only be a good thing for Lego! :thumbup: Quote

Joebot Posted July 15, 2009 Posted July 15, 2009 grats to TLG :)Although kinda disturbing seeing Microsoft at No1 Agreed. It kinda devalues the whole list, doesn't it? Quote
blueandwhite Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 The British sure do love their Mercedes'. Well it's nice to know that after your PC fails when googling for BBC news about an emergency scare on British Airways you still have a reliable set of LEGO bricks to fall back on for entertainment. Go LEGO! Quote

Go LEGO! And after your Rolex stops ticking and your Mercedes breaks down. This is awesome for LEGO. Being the only toy company up there is definitely a huge achievement. Quote
The Green Brick Giant Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 When I first saw that, the first thing I thought was "take that Megabloks!" And then it turns out that Mega Bloks came in 6th. Quote

darkrebellion Posted July 17, 2009 Posted July 17, 2009 This is really good for the TLC . Considering this is the only Toy Brand in the list it should be a honor for them . Quote
