(...) All of the above was actually pretty easy to do. I just kept buying sets and building stuff. I freely mix the old and new greys and browns. If the color looks off at some point, I swap the part out till it looks right. I have a hard time (...) (18 years ago, 21-Feb-07, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.color)

I'm not going to BrickFest either, but: (...) I don't think it's so much of a matter of *switching* over so much as accepting bley in your collection and/or models. (...) You can use cool new pieces like 1x1 slopes, improved 2x2x2 slopes, those (...) (18 years ago, 21-Feb-07, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.color, FTX)

(...) I won't be attending Brickfest so I'll just have to discuss/vent this with you online: I don't think I'll ever forgive LEGO for changing the colors. The absolute worst part is how they changed it suddenly and without warning. Even if they (...) (18 years ago, 21-Feb-07, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.color, FTX)

Yes, Bley Sucks. I know that, Jeremy Rear knows that. And a good number of the rest of you out there know that too (maybe even a majority). But unfortunately, it looks like bley is hear to stay. I'm stuck in my dark (bley) ages as a result. I can't (...) (18 years ago, 21-Feb-07, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.color, FTX) !!

(...) I agree old brown is better for wood/dirt and if I was to choose only one brown it would be the old one, I just happen to like the new one for other uses... However I take serious offense at your casual remark which reduced castle to an (...) (18 years ago, 13-Feb-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)

(...) It's funny but I'm of the opposite school of thought. I think that overall light bley is more suited to more things than old grey (castle walls being the one possible exception) and dark bley is more suited to more things that old dark grey (...)

(...) While the lack of warning didn't help matters there are those (like myself ; ) who hold the older colours to be more useful for MOCing (especially landscaping) and don't complain on purely collection adjustment issues. This is why I have far (...) (18 years ago, 13-Feb-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)

(...) Actually, Purple was replaced by Knight Bus Purple, aka MdLilac. BtPurple is the replacement for DkPink. Um, and it was used for newer Dumbledores, so Purple as well. Pink itself was also replaced by . . . something. (Colors, I don't do.) (...) (18 years ago, 13-Feb-07, to lugnet.color)

(...) I think it caught on because it sounds like a real word. There aren't any new colors in the world, nobody gets to name new colors- except us! And we did, and whatever one may think about the color itself, the word is quite nice. Tim Smith (18 years ago, 13-Feb-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)
