That said, I've been working on some complete runs of CMF, part of me is excited to see it continue; and partly makes me grumble a bit.
I would be interested in seeing some themed series. Christmas, Halloween, Western etc. However that could impact sales I guess if certain kids/collectors aren't into certain themes.
I'll keep buying as long as they're producing. My 4 yr old loves them.
What do you think the chances are that Series 9 will be out for sale by Christmas? I'm hoping for some great stocking stuffers here, and I know that a lot of January releases appear around stores in December, but I've never tracked the CMF Series.
Granted, there's nothing stopping TLG from creating more than one character encyclopedia of the theme. After all, it already has 128 characters, and will have at least 144 by the time the book is released. That's more than the LEGO Harry Potter theme had by the time Characters of the Magical World was released. If they were to wait much longer, it might be longer than they could expect to sell at the same price point as the other character encyclopedias. As far as I know there is no plan to discontinue the minifigures theme any time in the foreseeable future, so it's probably better that DK breaks them up like this.
Not to mention, of course, that releasing a book like this when the theme is over would probably be a poor business decision, since that would mean not promoting the theme in that way until it's stopped being successful, at which point there would be little reason to expect a book to sell any better than the sets. Harry Potter is probably the exception rather than the rule, since it's license-driven and Dorling Kindersley may have an easier time promoting Harry Potter reference guides without a movie in theaters than TLG has promoting Harry Potter sets.
