  Re: Universal Color List...finally
 
Hello! (...) Well, I can only speak for myself. The year is eleven months old and I can count on two hands how many new sets I have bought. No multiple copies of one and the same set, either. What I bought, however, are old-grey and old-brown parts (...) (20 years ago, 19-Nov-04, to lugnet.color, lugnet.lego)
 
  Re: Universal Color List...finally
 
(...) Yea! More new colours! More shades of pinkish violet-green, 'cause the kids love them! This list, however universal it is deemed now, still has some drawbacks. The main problem I see is with these ugly new greys, which are on the list, and (...) (20 years ago, 19-Nov-04, to lugnet.color, lugnet.lego)
 
  Re: Universal Color List...finally
 
(...) The colour we usually call "tan" ist "Brick Yellow", Lego colour No. 5. I ordered some pieces once, and we had some difficulties matching the colours from Lego Speech to The Real World, but we managed by examining some sets, the lady from the (...)

  Re: Universal Color List conversions
 
(...) Jake, A better resource for converting Lego color names to fan color names is the Isodomos Color Roots page: (URL) includes all of the colors on the Lego list provided to Peeron, plus conversions to Peeron, Bricklink, and LDraw color names.

  Re: Universal Color List...finally
 
(...) With all due respect I don't think the color change had much if any real effect on sales. I am no LEGO appologist, actually the change bothers me more and more as time passes but I don't have the time or desire to waist time complaining about (...)

  Re: Universal Color List...finally
 
(...) Dang. You're right. Thanks James, sarcasm it is definitely! But wouldn't you agree on how ironic the whole situation is? How set sale numbers of LEGO dropped like a stone, despite the wonderful new colors? Well, I suppose bad Knight's Kingdom (...) (20 years ago, 18-Nov-04, to lugnet.color, lugnet.lego, FTX)

  Re: Universal Color List...finally
 
Hi Jake, could you please ask your colleagues to provide lego numbers? I couldn't decode few of the colors on the LEGO list... (...) I assume color 5, Brick Yellow (Tan in Peeron terminology) (...) Nougat, color 18, looks totally improbable to me. I (...) (20 years ago, 18-Nov-04, to lugnet.color, lugnet.lego)
 
  Re: Universal Color List...finally
 
(...) Good to have the info. Can't quite seem to find out how to get Peeron to cross reference between the Lego name and "our" name however. I was trying to figure out if what we call tan is on the "keepers" list. JB (20 years ago, 18-Nov-04, to lugnet.color, lugnet.lego, FTX)
 
  Re: Universal Color List...finally
 
(...) Hi Jake, I would appreciate if you could clarify one item about this list... If I understand correctly, this is a list of colors which we may expect to be present and will not be changed without prior discussion. That much I understand. I (...)
