LEGO magazine to be sent only to kids

Post by chump »

Hello LEGO Ambassadors,

I have recently have had a dialog with the LEGO CLUB team. They are take a new step in the CLUB Magazine which is resulting in some changes, specifically affecting adult subscribers.

Coming in the September release in EUC (Germany, Austria and Switzerland) all CLUB members who are older than 13 years old will receive a notice that it is their last subscription. Then in November it will be all of Europe (November will be the 2nd launch in EUC, so DE, AT and CH only) and then starting in 2015 it will be global. The CLUB magazine will focus its distribution and experience only toward 12 years and younger.

The team recognizes there may be a impact to the AFOL community and would enjoy hearing your feedback into this decision, also to understand how many in the AFOL community subscribe to the magazine. Please feel free to comment on this thread and on August 27th I will collect it and provide it to the team leadership.

The magazine will still be offered in LEGO Brand Retail store to be picked up.

Thank you

I hope they will still regularly send Catalogs to active VIP members.

Oddly enough they slipped in the latest club magazine when I was in the LEGO Store in Alderwood Mall. Maybe they are cutting back on mail expenses and trying to just give them out at the stores?
