Hello EB,
I have recently been thinking alot in my head about the current state of the LEGO Group.
I Think That The LEGO Group's Products have been declining in originality. I find that LEGO Has released a wave of themes in the recent years that
make it seem like they ran out of ideas. Sets/Themes Based on third party Intellectual Properties like Star Wars, LoTR, etc... Should be fine because they are
directly ripped from their respective universes. But, It's been a long time since I've seen a LEGO Made Theme that has decent sets.
Casting Aside City,Creator, and Technic, Sets Like Friends, Disney Princess, Elves, Ninjago, Chima,andSpeed Champion Have Nothing special in my opinion.
Some of them I consider even bad. When I go to my retail toy sellers, They never run out of Friends,DP,Elves,etc... They are ALWAYS there. Nobody buys them. But Licensed ones
actually sell, and often my local stores run out of supplies for them...
I actually liked the Idea of re-introducing Bionicle and Pirates, but again these were made some time ago, so nothing new...
Where are the themes like Blacktron, M:Tron, Mars Mission, Agents, Exo-Force, Power Miners, Drome Racers, Harry Potter,etc..?
I'd like to hear your opinion about it
