I find it very hard to believe you without more information than that.

For those of you wondering, I believe that Dr Cogg is refering to the Eurobricks thread found
here. The initial announcement is at the top, while the information about the number of sets is posted halfway down the first page.
I don't know who legomilk is, but people at Eurobricks seem to take him seriously. *shrug*

I find it amazing that a thread in Dear LEGO has virtually no information in it and yet is now at 2 pages. No, not amazing. It's ostentatious.

os·ten·ta·tious
–adjective
1. characterized by or given to pretentious or conspicuous show in an attempt to impress others: an ostentatious dresser.
2. (of actions, manner, qualities exhibited, etc.) intended to attract notice: Lady Bountiful's ostentatious charity.
Not, I might add, exactly what the general thrust of Count Blacktron's post would seem to have intended. I don't think he meant to describe this thread as showy... perhaps some conjugate of absurd would have been more fitting.

Oh, yeah! Forgot about that one!
Woah, it's somehow gotten seriously off-topic here!

CB,
I love that word.
It would be nice for TLC to drop some more hints about the 2009 line but to be fair I still do not have all the 2008 line so hurry. Still need time to decide if I want the Troll wheel....

Time is up, you do want it.
Go get one and proceed with rolling over your armies.
I would love it if there was a Troll Machine Shop for 2009 where all the crazy Troll siege machines can be made. You could do quite a lot with a mad scientist Troll and a bit of gear. I can only imagine where things might go, but I wonder if plans are working to continue the Trolls as an "on the move" sort of foe, or if they will have a set that gives them a base or origin point.

I agree. Buy it now because we all know how sets have a tendacy of disappearing when you decide on purchasing them. I almost missed the Skeleton Ship even though I saw it at TRU for weeks. Luckily S@H had some on sale. If you decide that its not for you use it for parts.
