To Mr. Jørgen Vig Knudstorp
CEO of LEGO Company
Billund
Denmark

Dear Mr. Knudstorp,

we are writing to you, the highest authority of LEGO Company, in order to
express a matter of utmost importance for our community. We, the
signatories of this letter, form the group of Adult Fans Of LEGO® (AFOLs).
Some of us have children who play with LEGO® toys but most of us build
models with LEGO® bricks ourselves. Until recently, we have been the
biggest fans of your products. Now, however, our enthusiasm for your
products has been put extremely at risk because we are calling a decision
into question that was made by the LEGO Company which is of great
importance for us.

The issue that has stirred up anger over the past year, is the fact that
within LEGO Company a wrong decision has been taken, namely the break of a
tradition which had existed for the past 40 years - the continuity of the
SYSTEM colours.

{snip}

We call upon you, Mr. Jørgen Vig Knudstorp, to take action now!
Give us back our SYSTEM of grey, dark-grey and brown!

I agree with the general intent of this letter- the request to swap the greys
back to the old colors.
