All of the above was actually pretty easy to do. I just kept buying sets and
building stuff. I freely mix the old and new greys and browns. If the color
looks off at some point, I swap the part out till it looks right.
I have a hard time letting the color change ruin my hobby. I can still build.
The worst that happens is that I get a friendly ribbing from people when I show
up at a train show with a MOC with mixed greys. I usually shrug and say, "Yeah,
I didn't have enough of [whatever color]." I don't let it ruin my day, and in
the end, I've still enjoyed building something.
Like I've said before, I'll build with whatever they sell me.
