Hey all,

I'm just wondering how many of you will be buying new sets, but setting
aside all the new colors and not sorting them into your collection.  I'm
putting all the bley, dark bley, and red-brown into a bag that I hope trade
with.  Fortunately for me, there is a toy consignment shop near me that
should provide me with all the original colors I'll ever need.  I am keeping
the new trans-orange, because it's beautiful.  Bittersweet times they are!

How many of you will be going this route?


I keep all the Lego I buy with the single exception of wagon plates.

The only problem I have is that it'll be a year or more before I show up with a
new gray (dark or light) based MOC as I expect it's gonna take that long to get
a wide enough selection of parts and before there are large enough parts counts
on BrickLink to be able to bulk up with common parts that you need 1000s of. I
look forward to loads of new gray parts. The only problem I have is I am finding
it hard to tell new light gray from old light gray in my build room lighting,
but it is very obvious if you get them mixed when your MOCs show up in a
flourescent lighted location.
