In recognition of everything that’s going on right now, LEGO’s actions for #BlackOutTuesday involved not just a $4 million donation to organisations devoted to racial equality, but a request for sellers to not advertise any sets involving police or the White House.
As The Toy Book report, emails went out on Tuesday from Rakuten (who handle LEGO’s affiliate marketing) asking resellers to avoid promoting a long list of products that included police stations, police vehicles, a donut shop that included a police minifig and the excellent Architecture Series version of The White House (pictured above).

Why tick people off unnecessarily?
Are you f-Ing kidding me?
What will they come up with to replace the forbidden toys? Detailed riot kits complete with stores to loot and LEGO bricks to throw at police?
This is still all about butt hurt Klinton not beating Trump. They were so close to their utopia and I am worried about how far they will go if bio-warfare Corona and Floyd scorched America doesn’t work.

What the hell has the WH got to do wth this???
We took our young kids to Legoland in CA many years ago.they loved the medival josting ride. But for adults, the miniature village of legos was great. The White House was esp beautiful.

Looks legit to me.
Fun fact: Lego’s north American HQ is in CT. They recently moved out of their old HQ and moved into a converted warehouse. The old one is the “L” shaped building with no cars in the lot.

Oh, good grief, Lego has a factory in China.

Factory in China
I can’t imagine they ever sold many of the White House model anyway. Plus it was discontinued 3 years ago! It is still listed at Amazon and the model is approximately 3 inches by 4 inches by 1 inch and costs $189.99!!!!!!!
Says in the story it was only for Black Out Tuesday...not that it makes it any better.
No, Lego politicizes themselves....No more for them. I have been to the “land” near San Diego. Why go ever again?
Eleven Grandchildren, nine boys...no more legos.
What does the WH have to do with this?
Orange Man Bad! Trump derangement syndrome. Soon to be mandatory at corporations.
Yeah, businesses that do this stuff are dead to me.
I’m so bad I unfollowed all the black screens yesterday on
Instagram.
Leggo my LEGO...please
