(...) SNIPPAGE HAS OCCURRED (...) I too am limited to an online discussion of said topic... At first I felt like you. Angry frustrated, and unsure how to move forward. But once it was clear that there was no going back, I did two things: 1. I (...) (18 years ago, 21-Feb-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)

(...) Yeah, this has pretty much been my approach. The difference is that I very rarely bought sets just to display, and now I don't buy any. Like Bryan, my set purchases are way down - most dramatically in the past year. The old color sets have (...) (18 years ago, 21-Feb-07, to 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.

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) !!
