But you could solve that by sandwiching a layer of regular bricks (...) (20 years ago, 10-Apr-04, to lugnet.castle)

| (...) The official reason given for the color change was that new colors were less "muddy" and would be more appealing to kids. No mention was made of the new colors being cheaper to produce (although that hasn't been denied). But Jake McKee has (...) (21 years ago, 20-Mar-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)
