Jake, I have no problem with the quality. From time to time there will always be parts that are not perfect. Take for example the 1 dot color parts. Sometimes a part has the bottom broken or cracked. While other times they don't. It happens. We are (...) (20 years ago, 30-Jun-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.color, lugnet.general, FTX)

I've had a number of people ask me about a perceived quality issue lately: If you take a number of plates and create two or more large stacks, they tend to be differing heights.

Hi Jake, I think the confusion stems from the fact that you used 'Dark Green' to describe the darker (and newer) shade of green from TLC, while recent S@H catalogs have used 'Dark Green' to describe traditional (and ordinary) green.
