Hi Jake,
Thanks for getting our feedback.
New colors are great, but I think a core color change is a mistake.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t the ingenious idea of the LEGO company to get
people to buy bricks, and then buy more bricks to add to their collection to
build bigger and better things. That, in my opinion, is what makes the concept
of the LEGO element so great.
If you collect hotwheels cars, you just keep getting more hotwheels cars as you
collect. You might get a bigger collection, but you can’t do anything better
with it. I beleive that being able to make bigger and better creations is what
gets people hooked on the LEGO product. Some even into their adult years :)
Well, LEGO has now stifled the attempts of its customers who are trying to build
up a collection of light grey, dark grey, and brown. The only people I feel this
change could possibly ‘help’ build a collection are those who have never
purchased a brick (only potential customers) and those who have more brick than
they know what to do with (not many people).
