But they even killed duplo...now it's lego "explore" and they have special stuff for children ~1.5 years and for children ~9 months etc.etc. when everything you really need are these plain duplo blocks - i know this: my son is 14 months old and loves it to throw around the things i build for him.... :)
i think they just wanted to get into the "playmobil" market which had turned out to be a very bad idea.
the high prices are ok if you can use the parts for a long time, but i don't pay 50 Euro for some 20 specialized "Bob-The-Builder" -wallpieces with printed bricks on it...
HarHarHar (starts evil laughing): somewhere in my parent's house waits a HUGE number of lego from the mid-70ties up to the mid-80ties to be unleashed......(stops laughing) i just have to dig through the cellar and find the right boxes....*sigh* i haven't done this yet because i know how it looks down there.....*breakdown*
