I look at it this way:
It's still LEGO, right? Sure, the model in the box may have an element the you
don't like but nothing forces you to build the model the way it is pictured.
Some of the colors may be different but all the bricks that you have now didn't
suddenly change color. Some of the pieces may seem specialized but, again,
nothing forces you to use them in their intended way. A little creativity goes
a long way.
This doesn't mean that we need to be the lap dogs of the LEGO company. If you
don't like something, say so but do it a civil tone. As Dave said, we're mostly
adults here or very close to it. Instead of throwing a temper tantrum, how
about establishing a dialog. There are many, many ways of making people notice
your point of view without losing your composure. And making your point without
losing your composure is always the way to go.
