		Re: Nicely now. What do you think of the new colors?
From my standpoint as a castle-head, color variations is not a horrible thing per se--real stone walls aren't all one shade, so mixing shade differences is fine. However, the new dark gray looks too blue to me and is therefore not very useful. I (...) (21 years ago, 16-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, FTX)

		Re: Nicely now. What do you think of the new colors?
Hi Jake, I'm not exactly a huge poster here on lugnet, but I am a collector of huge amounts of lego. I only got back into lego a couple of years ago so I no doubt don't have the collections other folks here do. I strongly oppose the colour change. (...)

		Are We to Tell the Public of the Color Change?
Much has been posted of the color change and of LEGO not passing along word of it to consumers. Which brings me to something that happened over the holidays. At a X-Mas family get-together, a cousin of mine asked what was in store for 2004 (her son (...) (21 years ago, 16-Jan-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)

		Re: Nicely now. What do you think of the new colors?
Thanks for taking the time to ask for our views. I have not personally seen the new colors yet, but I can understand where folks are coming from. They see a discontinuance of an existing (and well used) set of colors. Likewise folks see a long road (...) (21 years ago, 16-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, FTX)

		Re: Nicely now. What do you think of the new colors?
Hi Jake. Thanks for asking. This is my first post in regards to this topic, although I feel very strongly about it. My biggest concern is that this is an omen of things to come. After producing these colors for over twenty years, they are changed so (...) (21 years ago, 16-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)

		Re: Nicely now. What do you think of the new colors?
First off, has anyone verified the accuracy of the claimed reason for the color change, i.e. to make the grays more "in line" with the other colors? I know very little about color theory, but naively, I'd say gray is 1/2 white and 1/2 black, or (...) (21 years ago, 15-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)

		Re: Nicely now. What do you think of the new colors?
Hi Jake, nice to ask us about our feelings, but even if you tell us, TLC will not change back to the old colours, I still wish you would do. Even if that would not heal all the wounds that broke up now. What I personally think about the colour (...) (21 years ago, 15-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, FTX)

		Re: Nicely now. What do you think of the new colors?
Jake, Thanks for the "official" opportunity to be heard. I'll spare you the history, but suffice it to say that LEGO has been a part of my life for the past 34 years, and is one of the things that keeps me young. I posted a poll on LUGnet about this (...)

		Re: Nicely now. What do you think of the new colors?
(...) I really, really like the new grey colors. I think in and of themselves, they're great--the gunmetal dark grey could be extremely useful for lots of space things, and the light grey is nicely neutral. However, I really DISLIKE them as (...)

		Re: Nicely now. What do you think of the new colors?
(...) Do I like the change in colors? No. I'd like to keep the current color pallet. In fact, I think there are too many color variations as is. Why do I not like the change? As an engineer, I am always concerned with backwards compatibility. Sure (...) (21 years ago, 15-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, FTX)

		Re: Nicely now. What do you think of the new colors?
Hi Jake- I usually do not have a vocal presence on LUGNET, but I feel that this is an excellent opportunity to express an opinion of this change. I personally don't mind the new colors as an ADDITION to the existing and ever-growing color palette. A (...) (21 years ago, 15-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, FTX)

Well, let's pretend for a minute that I haven't had much time to read Lugnet posts for about six months, and let's pretend, just pretend, that I might have missed all the hub-bub that might have led to your recent posts, and let's say (...)

		Re: Nicely now. What do you think of the new colors?
Jake, Thank you for the opportunity to provide input. I have already sent in letters though the consumer affairs website. After reading most of the posts in the thread, I don't know if I will be able to add any unique or new viewpoints to what has (...) (21 years ago, 16-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, FTX)

If I had the chance to send a message to the folks at your company, it would be in the form of two questions: 1) Did the focus groups understand the potential ramifications of their decisions?

		Re: Nicely now. What do you think of the new colors?
As a child, I was frustrated that dark grey pieces consisted of pick axes, shovels, and castle helmets. Same for green trees and baseplates. I like color. And in general I prefer cool tones to warm- so I'd say I like the new greys. Will I miss the (...) (21 years ago, 15-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, FTX)

		Re: Nicely now. What do you think of the new colors?
Here are my current concerns about the color changes. Note, I define the isssue as 'replacing existing core colors with slightly different colors', so my opinion would be very different about new colors that clearly differ from existing ones. Also (...)

I realize that there are public reasons, which have been stated, and private reasons for the change in colors and I have no negative feelings toward this decision. I personnally (...)
