I agree with all this, but I need more light and dark grey, so maybe they
could intro something new. But please don't call it Greytron!?! The newer
colors should be represented as well, like Life On Mars, but with so many
specialized parts it is hard to cross themes. Blacktron One was great
because LEGO understood that people wanted certain colors and they wanted
the parts to fit easily into Town, Castle and Space (possibly Pirate too).
If they could recreate that interchangability and multi-use theme based
play, I'd pass out with delight. Bring back 1989-1994 year LEGO!!!!!
There are some who call me....
