(...) If you look closely at your photo, especially the corner slope, you'll see that the surface is mottled, not smooth like bricks. This seems to confirm that it is a consequence of the deterioration of the molds. But note also this (URL) pic (...) (17 years ago, 10-Sep-07, to lugnet.ambassadors, lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) I have noticed that too. I do not expect Lego to pay much attention to such a complaint or should I say as much attention as they did to the change of colors. They will probably tell you that in their research the kids liked the smooth rather (...) (17 years ago, 10-Sep-07, to lugnet.ambassadors, lugnet.dear-lego)

I have to laugh because this was my hobby-horse 10 years ago. There has been some progress, but things are still pretty bad. I notice that Lego Designer/Pick-A-Brick includes one female head, 3 male heads, and 2 neutral heads. It also includes 2 (...) (17 years ago, 14-Jul-07, to lugnet.dear-lego)
