Coming from someone whos Lego collection fills a bedroom, 90 dollars retail for this is insane. Lego has lost their mind.

Agreed. And I hope no one buys from them. Overpriced plastic that shouldn't cost more than 25$ for this each. We must stop giving our money to these companies. And you'll see the prices will come down.

They can do this because people will buy whatever LEGO put out.

I still dont know what the attraction is with LEGO stuff. Like my friend who has almost every star war kits. I mean some are nice but not every set and yet most of the kits are $$$.

The genric building block sets from China are a much better deal than Lego. They now have equally creative sets as Lego offers (albeit no licensed IP sets). Happy Chinese New Year everyone.

For clarity - the proper name for this holiday is Lunar New Year, as this is not only celebrated by us Chinese - but also by other Asian countries that are not Chinese (e.g., Korean, Vietnamese, and others).

For clarity,Lunar calendar is created by Chinese people. Follow me, it is Chinese new year. The other countries follow the culture from the ancient and this won't change the original name of it.

As someone mentioned it earlier, it's not the pure lunar calendar. It's like a lunar-solar calendar. The pure luna calendar is used by Persian ppl, if I remembered correctly. And this lunar-solar calendar is corrected with the help of western priest. Smilie

Chinese new year make sense and so it's lunar new year. It is originated from China. Both are proper name.

It is not originated from China. It is from Luna calendar, which is used by farmers around the world. Also ancient China is not the same sad today's China. Just like ancient Egypt is not the same as modern day Egypt.

That's not true. I visited Vietnam and Japan and they both use Chinese characters for the new year. Given they sometimes have their own characters but they were perfectly fine with chinese characters.

I think people are arguing it should not be called chinese new year because other country like Vietnam Korea and Japan also celenrate new year at this day. But just like your mentioned, those countries also use chinese characters, so would you call it "character" only? No, you don't. it's still chinese characters, same reason, chinese new year won't be "new year". Christmas won't be "mas" when it's also celebrated by non christian

lol. Even Chinese calls it 农历新年 in China, which literally means " farming/agriculture calendar new year". It is more often referred to as 春节 spring festival. Sorry that you can't google behind the great firewall of China. Please don't reply, not interested to educate you any further. Smilie
