| | | | | (...) I'm curious about this exchange from Jake's chat: Daimyo Jake, you have stated on Lugnet that the color changes would be limited to grays. Daimyo But what about the new yellow color change? sink21 no, not really... what I said was tha the (...) (20 years ago, 18-Oct-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego, FTX)

| | | | | | | (...) This baffles me. Hasn't the color-consistency of LEGO been praised as one of the factors setting it above its competitor clone brands? And now we have more or less official confirmation that color-variance is expected and (presumably) (...) (20 years ago, 18-Oct-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego, FTX)

| | | | | | | | (...) I read it as regular yellow, not the light yellow. Light yellow could have been one of the pastel colors that was modified. I'll check on this. (...) OK, to clarify: What I'm saying is not that our quality control has gone out the window. The (...) (20 years ago, 19-Oct-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego, FTX)

| | | | | | | | (...) Hi Jake! We can all accept that minor variance may be unavoidable during production, but in the past a Certain Other Brand has been blasted for failing to maintain laser-precise color consistency, so it seems that LEGO is getting a pass on (...)

| | | | | | (...) This is not an "official" response, but I think that Jake was trying to say that the Yellow and Purple and some other non new colors had some quality control issues. I would also like to point out that these issues could be pointed to using (...) (20 years ago, 19-Oct-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego, FTX)

| | | | | (...) Another "unofficial" response: I think we can all make the general inference that the sets were at once ordered and structured. Lego itself is too disorganized, it doesn't know its right hand from its left, therefore, you have a disorganized (...) (20 years ago, 19-Oct-04, to lugnet.general)

On the flip side, I was very excited to see the 'outreach' that these types of sessions offer--how many companies do you know that allow a 'one-on-one' with a representative, free of charge? Especially one that we have a personal vested (...) (20 years ago, 19-Oct-04, to lugnet.general)

| | | | | | (...) Hi, I really like this idea, it's very similar to what I was thinking. Perhaps something like 2 weeks to submit questions, a few days for an admin to edit and mash together similar questions, and then 2 weeks to vote on your favorites. Then, (...)
