LEGO TMNT Topic

With the popularity of the show, I think we could get more sets. Problem is that TMNT already has a very popular toy line from Playmates and it is competing with the LEGO sets. This could be why they aren't selling as well as some other licensed sets. They don't seem to be bombing, just not selling quite as well as the Superhero sets or Star Wars. If you follow LEGO sales you'll notice one of their biggest sellers right now are the Friends line (mostly girl oriented and found in the girl toy section in most stores).

Anyway, even if they don't release new TMNT sets in early 2014 they could always release sets later on in summer 2014 or even into 2015. They have done this before with some licenses.
