I know I'm the oddball (as usual) but... Definitely Technic for me. Regular LEGO System sets really don't appeal to me often since I've gotten older. I love the intricate mechanics put into sets like the Unimog (can't wait to build!) and some of the engineering thought put into them is a marvel. The only LEGO System sets I plan to get are the UCS Red Five X-Wing, Haunted House, and Sopwith Camel. The rest of my purchases will be Technic .

LotR/Hobbit and Castle for me personally. Castle was my favorite growing up and since coming out of my dark age (TMNT had me start looking at Lego again, however I acquired the theme after quite a few LotR/Hobbit/Castle purchases) I've started to go a little crazy with LotR/Hobbit purchases. Although I did dip my toes into Star Wars with a B-Wing on the weekend and I have a feeling that is a purchase that is going to start something my wallet will soon not forget. On a side note is it just me or does Star Wars seem like an expensive theme?

Personally Star Wars is what brought me out of my dark ages and really the only sets that are a must have for my collection. I think it's evident that Star Wars is the best theme simply by looking at the time and money lego invests into it! UCS Star Wars sets--no comparison for me. I have branched out into collecting modulars/LOTR though.

Modular buildings/City is my favorite theme to display but Castles/LOTR is my favorite theme to actually play and build with.

No one voted for Bionicle?!? ;)

Looking at this thread on peoples favorite theme got me thinking what would be peoples favourite them for investing? So what say you? Where do you like to spend your investment capital? What theme do you think has the best future potential? (I've kept the categories close to the other poll for comparisons sake) Also no room for Indiana Jones so just post that if it's your vote.

Star wars just because they have been and will always be around.

Town, Large Scale Models, and Seasonal are perennial winners.

Star Wars/LOTR/City

LOTR is a sure fire winner and original Star Wars trilogy always do well.

Where the heck is Prince of Persia?

I love city and train stuff................and others will always love City sets, and trains have a huge following!

Star Wars OT, LOTR, and The Hobbit.

No one voted for Bionicle?!?

That is a little surprising. Where the heck is Blackjack when you need him?! :cheese:

Seems like the usual suspects are doing well in this poll as well. Good to see some friends love. Interesting that the results bear little correlation to current CAGR by theme averages.

Which of these lego themes do you like the best.

Which of these lego sets do you like the best.

This makes no sense

Between the two polls, more people enjoy the Castle related themes than invest in them, and City seems to be considered a better investment than Castle.

Umm, which, who, what?

Sorry I messed up.

Sorry I messed up.

Happens to the best of us. if you mean which theme I'de definitely go with star wars!

Ya that's what I mean.

The items in your poll are "themes", sets are in themes. If you were looking for answers on members favorite sets, then you would list them out like

10188 Death Star

10123 Cloud City

10185 Green Grocer

etc

Just helping you for future posts...
