Oh dear! The "personal attack" card again! I'm going to say this and I hope I never have to say this again. Stop playing that card just because someone is frustrated over the fact that they can't get you to understand why Lego won't do certain themes again. Its annoying and pretty irrelevant. No one is even angry here. But a little word of wisdom: You can't provoke someone to frustration and then act like they are the ones in the wrong.

Exactly! HEY!!!! I bring up points that are just as good as everyone else's on this forum. If certain scenarios are already being covered with a substantial amount of sets, I just don't think its necessary to beg for more or to have more on top of those until they have been killed off. Why do you think I say what I say about certain City sets? All the same, I think I'm done here.

@leafan We have to keep what we want within reason. Look at my posts about City sets. I know my ideas on how to improve the theme and subtheme ideas for the theme will most likely not happen. But they are still within reason. Asking Lego to revive a dead theme when children have plenty of similar themes, if not better ones to play with, isn't a reasonable wish.

Subtheme Idea: Medical ? Air Lift - Includes ambulance helicopter and crashed civilian car Medicine Transport - Includes medicine transport plane Mobile Medical Center - Includes rig, mobile medical trailer with treatment area and warning signs Ambulance Helicopter Transport - Includes pull string ambulance helicopter and transport truck Hospital - includes hospital building with easy to remove levels, ambulance and drone New Characters Introduced: Andrew McStitch - the chief medical practitioner of the city hospital. Victoria Needleman - a registered nurse. Amber Lance - a local paramedic.

Because Star Wars has a story behind it. Its also a well known franchise and extremely popular. Not just among KFOLs and TFOLs, but also AFOLs as well. That's why it sells. Classic Space didn't suck, but it didn't have any of the traits that Star Wars has besides the fact that they are both science fiction.

I'm glad someone agrees with me there. The space sets that we get from City satisfy me enough to where I'm not even worried about classic space. Deep Sea Divers also gave me some closure on the state of pirates.....dead. Now we just need a Forest Exploration subtheme to let us know where the castle sets is. In other words, classic space, pirates and castle aren't coming back.

That's a good point! We were kids in the 90s, when Lego was going through a rather dark period in life (though to us, it was a golden age). This is the 2010s and 2020s where kids are much different. They want different things. If you go to the Thomas the Tank Engine fandom (which I'm also a proud member of), you'll see all the backlash that the producers get for the so-called "issues" with the series today. But the thing that the designers at Lego and the producers of Thomas and Friends have in common is their willingness to change for the better. They have to pander to new fans in order to survive in this day and time.

City Space sells well because of the theme its under. City happens to be one of the most popular themes out there as it basically teaches children about the different jobs that are out there and astronauts is one. It teaches children more about careers than city life. So that type of space is a little different as it shows space sets from a job point of view rather than fantasy. So to compare City space to space sets in general isn't really a fair comparison.

When does new information of the coming City sets arrive?
Driver Brandon Grumman replied to Nom Carver's topic in LEGO Town
No problem! It upsets me too! I would like to think those laws would be overturned or excused for respectable corporations like Lego. But you know what they say about those people who live on hope. -
