stuifzand Posted November 5, 2004 Posted November 5, 2004 I'm sure it is a well known fact that Fbtb.net has a gentlemen's agreement with TLC to not publish any leaked info (as far as I know). As does Classic-castle.com In return they get scoops now and then. And stuff to give away in contests. This is what I think the "problem" is. They want to keep their promiss.

Well TLC told us they are not giving sets to them (at least for fbtb). And considering exclusive news, lately we get many more pics before them :/ And we have really good relationships with lego *satis*
Vader Posted November 17, 2004 Posted November 17, 2004 Firstly id like to say that i have been a visitor to fbtb since the very beginning, but i always feel like im on the outside looking in when i post at fbtb. They seem to be stuck in the past, everytime someone posts a leaked pic they end up having the same argument over and over again, they then say things like 'well we dont post leaked pics as we get bigger and better ones from lego than anyone else' that statement was true years ago but nowadays they usually get the same as everyone else. IMO the only reason they got good pics at the start was because there was a real lack of websites that were lego star wars based. I think they need to change the way things are done, for the last few years lego have sent out to shops pics of upcoming sets and everytime they end up on the web. Lego must know this but they still continue to send the pics out, my way of thinking is that perhaps lego likes this, after all a pic of an upcoming set generates alot of buzz it also wets our taste buds and keeps lego sets fresh in peoples minds. Anyhow i would like to say thanks to all the people who set up this website, your attitude is refreshing and i for one feel welcome here.
