(...) And to be fair, my experience with Mega Bloks consists of picking them out of yard-sale lots of LEGO, so I've really only dealt with MB pieces that are relatively old and worn. I must admit that more than one recent MB set design has caught my (...) (22 years ago, 19-Nov-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

(...) I've observed this in my children, too. And, if Lego's target audience doesn't care, then it just makes the decision to change the color just that much more inane... Mark (22 years ago, 19-Nov-03, to lugnet.general)

(...) I have to agree. I'm holding a chunk of dark gray blocks from a recent MB set and they all stick together very well, the colors of the various parts match and the bricks themselves line up nicely so that surfaces that are supposed to be smooth (...)

Greg Muri, 32 The corporate marketing speech that Jake posted is a total crock. I will not be purchasing any new sets that contain these colors. Honestly I am still unsure if I will continue Lego as a hobby at all. TLG did such a wonderful job (...) (22 years ago, 19-Nov-03, to lugnet.general)
