(...) What a wonderfully hideous MOC! I'd love to see more, but the link doesn't seem to work for me. Delightfully yucky color scheme, of course, and the teeth really put it over the top. Dave! (19 years ago, 11-May-07, to lugnet.space, lugnet.adventurers, FTX)

(...) The sad thing is, I think it's actually true. Not necessarily that it was done for the retail environment, but that the color change was done to give the pieces more visual "pop", and because the old colors (in contrast) look old and (...) (19 years ago, 11-May-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)

That's demented in all the best ways... awesome as a reinterpretation of the beloved 928, and a great payoff with the top view picture at the bottom of your page for it. (19 years ago, 11-May-07, to lugnet.space, lugnet.adventurers, FTX)

(...) Yeah, the shortage of doors and windows is a whole different line of ranting. In other words, I agree with that part- the red door is out of place with all the other colors. But note that Red, Tan, Dark Red are all *warm* colors. (19 years ago, 11-May-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)
