  Re: Variations in dark blue color.
 
Interesting points raised. As to LEGO quality not decreasing, and us just noticing it… I don’t buy that at all. I don’t ever remember stacking new bricks (even a few years ago) of the same color atop one another and seeing clear color differences. (...) (17 years ago, 12-Feb-08, to lugnet.color)

  Re: Variations in dark blue color.
