I will not adopt the new colors. There was no justifiable reason for them to be changed. All the suggestions I've heard as to why just do not make sense to me from a business standpoint. I associate the old brown and gray colors with my childhood. (...) (18 years ago, 8-Apr-07, to lugnet.color)

(...) I never minded either. Miniland and the traveling shows were inspirational, but I never believed I could build those from my personal collection. But I did have trouble being instructed to actually TELL visitors to the park that they could. (...) (18 years ago, 4-Apr-07, to lugnet.color)

(...) All those weird elements on BL have gotta come from somewhere. I never minded it as a kid and I still don't as an adult. LEGO displays are about displaying what can be done with bricks and since no child (or more than a very few adults) has (...) (18 years ago, 30-Mar-07, to lugnet.color)
