Hi Jake! Thank you for the chance to ‘chime in’ on an official thread dealing
with the new colors. As many other Lego fans are aware, I’m one of the company’s
biggest supporters of new colors. From the day Dark Grey debuted, I knew I would
be hooked into Lego for the rest of my days based on color alone. Teal and
Purple brought me out of my dark ages. You get my drift.
That said, I was disappointed when I opened 4492 for the first time only to
discover the colors didn’t match items I already owned. I’m all for the new
colors (light grey, especially), but not as replacement colors. These should
exist side by side with the original brown/Dgrey/Lgrey, not replace them.
Becasue of this, I have seriously curtailed my purchases of new sets pending a
preview of it’s inventory first...just to make certain I don’t end up with many
of the new colors too quickly.
Sorry, but even this color lover can’t put his full approval behind this move.
Even so, I feel the amount of whining being generated by those who only build in
the older colors is quite annoying in a public forum and should be confined to
email instead.
My $.02,
-Dave
