| What was the purpose of the LEGO colour change? Well, I think the whole thing was not initiated by TLC. I remember that not only LEGO parts changed their colours - there were some grey shade changes overall: some medicine packaging tubes, ceiling (...) (18 years ago, 11-Apr-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)
