I hate to say it, but ditto. While I support Lego-the-product, LEGO-the-company does
NOT have my support.
I have bought 23 2004 sets to date, and 20 of those had all bley instantly added to my
BL shop. I only bought 22 of the 21 to get 11 of the 4695s! If it were possible to
get the 4695 with 4755, as in Europe, I would have never have bought 22 of the 23
sets.
Meanwhile, I have bought over 200 2003-prev sets so far in 2004. As those disappear
from the TLG larder, my money will disappear from their coffers.
Keep it up, TLG. Your slide to bankruptcy or public ownership is only a matter of
time with the boneheaded moves you've pulled in the last few years (all the GOOD ones,
like Lego Direct and all of its' products, won't save you when the boneheaded moves
vastly outweigh them!). None of the moves compare to removing CORE COLORS as you have
done lately.

| I should note (even though I have already done so numerous times), that while I do NOT support the company, I DO support Jake. Only if Jake had KKK's job would I blame him for the current issues. But since his job now includes liason, he's going to (...) (20 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.general)

| (...) Well if anyone's keeping track, I've purchased ONE set (MINI Star Destroyer) with the new colours so far. It was cheap and for a specific part (ironic thing is that the part was in new light grey). Opening this set was so difficult - not (...) (20 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.general)
