Count me in,
At least, LEGO should have made a POLL of some kind for their faithful and loyal
consumers to vote for such a change...
Yes, we might move on, but also we should not accept every thing that LEGO throw
at us..
Remember, when a lot of us fought that juniorization issue so hard, It made LEGO
to do some math and go back to it's roots again, the results are some decent
sets and models in the last two years... The consumer has voice you know..
It's a color change for something that has been used for decades. Do you know
how many people got used to and LOVED these colors through out the time ?
Countless..
Well, if the old colors were toxic, unavailable or unfeasible I understand...
But change it just because they are dull or cosmetically unfit in the eyes of
the beholders (in this case TLC), I totally disagree and thank God there are
tons of people like me.. And since we ARE the spending consumers who buy this
product, at least we are entitled to elect such a change.. The poll that I've
mentioned above could have been as simple as yes or no answers.. Oh well..
