(...) I think you're missing the point. The general consensus, I believe, is that introducing new colours is acceptable. It's the REPLACING of one colour with a slightly different shade that's causing all this ruckus - especially when the colour(s) (...) (22 years ago, 25-Nov-03, to lugnet.general)

(...) A better idea is to goto the store and pop all the boxes... It'll take far less money, time and effort on your part. You won't even have to leave the store to do the same damage.

I've decided I'm just going to start buying these sets, and then returning them - opened - saying that "these grey pieces don't match the grey pieces I already have..." Yea, it's petty, but if enough people started doing it I guarantee you it would (...) (22 years ago, 25-Nov-03, to lugnet.general) !
