Duh! LOL Other than the reason I stated above....why else would it sell so darn well? Though I do have to admit that I was pretty shocked.

Castle was seen in 2013 and Pirates was seen in 2015. Space is under City now.

Yes Sir....

@icm Why of course it is. It will continue to be one as long as there are people that like those kinds of sets.

@meliander Ninjago is likely not selling well because of the changes that most of the fans don't really care for. I guess looking back on it, when Ninjago came out in 2011, people were into it because it was the closest they could get to Dragon Ball Z in the Lego universe. But now, it's basically become a Japanese version of Lego City. As for Technic..I guess that mostly has to do with the fact that putting things on display has always been a popular trend. So Lego is taking part in the success.

@meliander City has been one of the top 3 since 2007 man. That's gotta tell you something.

C'mon Lego! Do a vehicle only year for 2021!!!! Vehicles are what help your City theme thrive and they're what you guys are the best at. I'll even give you some ideas.

That's great man! I used to dislike it. But then I got some 2019 fire wave sets and had a change of heart.

60182 all the way

....and I'm glad to hear that.

@Capparezza @TuxTown Some of the newer sets aren't that bad from my point of view. Though for the expensive sets I want, I usually find some good deals on eBay or wait until those are on clearance.

Well....that is what the two pilots in Lego City Adventures wore in the Sky Police episode. So it'd make sense.

@leafan I have the school bus for my bus collection. My son likes to take it out, roll it around and press the little button up top to turn the lights on. I can't get angry with him despite the fact that I have a "DO NOT TOUCH" sign on the cabinet as I wouldn't consider Playmobil vehicles to be ONLY for display purposes.

Guys! I just saw one on display at the Lego store.

Ok! That's understandable.

They are a billionaire corporation as someone pointed out earlier. They've got the money to take a break from the "best sellers" for a wave or two. So do the Walmarts in Northern Virgina.

Ok.....that was kinda rude.

Toys R Us was the major toy store in the US. Toys R Us is dead and that's where I used to buy my Lego from.

@Maple Were you not listening? I said...making money should be the last thing on their mind. Of course you'll make money because nothing is free. But if your running a company thats for a fandom and by a fandom (or a family in Lego's case), then the former is just my belief. See what I meant on that other post? You can't just push something out there and make it dominate and deem it your best seller. Of course it is if you push it out there like that.

Ok! What do you mean by that? Sorry I come across as irritated, but considering that Lego's goal first and foremost should be to make sets that are tasteful and pleasing to customers, that does make Lego sound like a greed machine. Given how people act here, it sounds like a lot of people support their greed. Making money should be their last goal.

My layout is probably the lamest of them all. I love the way yours looks. You did very good. .

That would be cool

@Mylenium He also said they don't sell Playmobil in Walmart stores in the US, which is a lie.

Well so much for making awesome building toys being their first and foremost goal. You mean why does CITY make so many of them. Tbh, sells of other City sets kinda dwindle because of those. They barely put anything else out there. Thats a lie. I see at least 40+ playmobil sets in both Walmart stores daily. At least 20 in Barnes & Noble stores. Some in Target stores too. Even though Lego is popular, there are still plenty of children and adults who like non-Lego vehicles too.

Nice!
