  Re: 4755 - Knight Bus Colours
 
Wow. I got my first 4755 at the BOGO50 TRU sale today, and it's worse than I thought. I could MAYBE excuse having 3 different shades spanning specific pieces. i.e., all 1x2s are one shade, all 1x4s another, etc. But no, I stacked the 1x2s, and got 3 (...)

  From the mouth of babes
 
Dear Lego, Last week I gave my 12 year old daughter 2 of the new Harry Potter sets. She was not aware of the gray changes, it just hadn't come up. What follows is an account of her exact words. Happy to get the new sets, she dumped them out on the (...) (20 years ago, 9-May-04, to lugnet.dear-lego) !! 
 
  Re: Reasons for the color change
 
(...) I think the color change was made because TLC tries to cut production costs. Probably they now use recycled plastic to produce the bricks. They just didn't manage to reach the same color again within a reasonable effort. Grey is the most (...) (20 years ago, 7-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Universal Colors - how about NO MORE CHANGES ?!?
 
Hi all, especially Jake, Jake, first let me say thanks for all the hard work you've put into communicating between AFOLs and TLC. And I'm sorry some of the folks here have treated you so rudely. Now, I have a suggestion about this "universal color" (...) (20 years ago, 7-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Re: Dear LEGO...
 
Have to agree with getting more Pick a brick stores, you have one in Windsor, down in the south of england, there should be one up north, say Manchester, so i can get the bits i need without resorting to bricklink :D (20 years ago, 30-Apr-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, lugnet.loc.ca, lugnet.loc.ca.on.ott, lugnet.org.ca.parlugment, lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Dear LEGO...
 
(cross-posting to Dear-LEGO) Jake, ...or whichever other LEGO representative that might be reading this... Why has Canada been left out of all these LEGO store openings?!?! Not to ignore other countries, but Canada actually had a LEGO S@H until a (...)

  Re: World City Fire idea
 
Neat Ideas... I thought the (URL) was a bit weak on its own. It was a nice set, but didn't have any companions sets, really to increase the fun. I thought the (URL) station itself had some good concepts, but still had some negative attributes (like (...) (20 years ago, 14-Apr-04, to lugnet.town, lugnet.dear-lego, FTX)

  Re: World City Fire idea
 
(...) I think this is a great idea! The airport-style trucks are well worth exploring as inspiration for sets. (...) Interesting idea. Might make for a nice play set, but with the possibility of some realism too. All the best, Allan B. (...) (20 years ago, 14-Apr-04, to lugnet.town, lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Re: World City Fire idea
 
How about an Airport Firestation? You could have the airport firetrucks, training area (old aircraft the set fire to) etc. This could nicely tie the theme in to a future new airport range. Richard.

  Re: World City Fire idea
 
(...) I like the way the Police sets were done. You got a SUV (and a nifty "armored car") with the building. I thought the building itself was a bit simplistic, but had great parts. I really enjoyed seeing Classic 1920's era version of Fire Halls (...) (20 years ago, 14-Apr-04, to lugnet.town, lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Re: World City Fire idea
 
(...) I'd imagine they'd try to keep in line with the current look of the World City sets (Police, Train Etc.) I'd like to see the return of dark gray ladders (new dark grey is fine with me) and red or silver wheel hubs. The return of the black fire (...)

If LEGO was to produce a World City Fire line, what would you like to see? Keeping in mind the constraints LEGO would be enforcing on the sets... (20 years ago, 14-Apr-04, to lugnet.town, lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Re: New Casle Sets

There's certainly a case here to be made against the over (...) (20 years ago, 12-Apr-04, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  New Casle Sets
 
My 8 year old was building castles this afternoon with a friend. Later he came up to his computer and logged onto the Lego Website and sawthe new "castle"figures. He was less than thrilled. He has built Bionicles and Bionicle like things (though the (...) (20 years ago, 6-Apr-04, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.dear-lego)

  Re: Gray Tub
 
Dear Lego, This tub would sell. Add some trees, a few horses and maybe a peasant figure or two - with pitchforks. Be sure to enclose an Idea Book with 20+ pages of castle building inspiration and you would have a winning product. And to save (...) (20 years ago, 1-Apr-04, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.general)
