(...) I like Dark Bley. It's a different-enough color for me to see it. I never really liked the old greys, they always looked yellowed and faded to me. Brown- now, I liked old brown. I have a lot of it, and I feel protective and nostalgic about it (...) (17 years ago, 9-May-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)

(...) Hi Tim, You've really summarised the reasons for using bley very well, and I agree with them all - although I would not give them all equal #1 ranking. I guess my main reason is that they are nicer to look at (particularly the new dark grey) (...) (17 years ago, 8-May-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)

(...) I've mentioned this in other threads, but basically I'll build with whatever is available. The color change itself doesn't bother me so much. When I first started collecting, I didn't have much grey, but I built up a collection. When the color (...) (17 years ago, 8-May-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)

Hi all, For everyone who has switched over I'd like to hear your reasons for doing so and stories or examples of why you're happy enough with the colour change to buy bley and use it. My reasons are as follows: Access to the absolutely fabulous new (...) (17 years ago, 8-May-07, to lugnet.color, FTX) !!

Hey all, After reading the many and varied responses to Mr. Chiles' recent post (to which I replied) I wanted to create my own post (and/or thread starter) to air some of the feelings that were stirred up in me. I let a few days pass to make sure (...) (17 years ago, 8-May-07, to lugnet.color)

(...) I Pretty much sold off all of my collection on BrickLink over a couple of years period. But that wasn't because of the color change at all - that was just a coincidence that the color change occurred just as I was entering a mini-mid life (...) (17 years ago, 23-Apr-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)

(...) Woah! Did you actually sell/trade/burn/give away your old greys and browns? Or do you just no longer build with them? How does your bley collection compare to what you used to have in old gray? I guess I ask because I'm still at the stage (...) (17 years ago, 23-Apr-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)

(...) IMHO, it's not 'stupid.' Having just recently built a decent size MOC in only new light bley, I must admit that I am impressed with it on it's own. That is the key phrase - 'on it's own.' Since I have no more old grey to mix together and see (...) (17 years ago, 23-Apr-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)
