Hello all. Lego has announced their financial results for the first half of 2018.

Overall it is better then 2017. Growth in China (bad for Lepin hahaha), and Western Europe occurred while the North American market reduced slightly due to retail environment. The closure of Toys R Us might be to blame but I am not sure. Themes like City, Classic, Ninjago, Star Wars, Technic, and Jurassic World are mentioned as the big sellers. No Superheros again which surprises me again. Set such as the Creator Roller Coaster and the Technic Bugatti Chiron are mentioned as selling well. Good news overall I think. Surprised JW is a big seller, might be the success of the movie though. Also good to note that Wizarding World is not included in these results as the sets were released in August. What are your thoughts?
