I just realized that in 2018, it was the 40th anniversary of the Lego Castle (375). It came and went without really anything to celebrate it. That makes me sad as Castle is one of the lines (along with Space and the City) that made Lego what it is now. Not having any new Castle lines on the horizon I wonder if Lego is losing sight of the future and they are living in the moment feeding of what sells now.... Anyways, I'm sad and disappointed

I mean, I guess I can't blame any company from producing "what sells now", as they are in the business to make money, not feed nostalgia. You're right that there really wasn't anything from them to celebrate a pretty significant anniversary of such an iconic set, which is too bad.
I am really hoping we get a new castle line in the next year or two. I haven't really kept my finger on the pulse of rumors and leaks, but it just seems like we are due for one soon.

*scratches at arm frantically* I could use a new Lego castle line, like VERY BADLY, just a thought, not that I am in withdrawal or anything *keeps scratching*
Seriously, though, I miss (and missed) the great number of years of two castle themes connected by the LOTR and The Hobbit sets.

yeah - I missed the fact it was an anniversary until couple days ago which is sad. I know that they need to make what sells, but Nexo knights are not selling - from what I know, that line is going by the way of the Dodo this year.
Anyways, I'm surprised they can't have a small castle line ongoing or at least have some sort of an anniversary set.

This would be more like a passing glance if anything....
