(...) Then I stand corrected, regarding Denmark and possibly other memberstates too. Thanks to Arne as well for his input. Out of curiosity: where is the danish contribution for the EU drawn from?

Jake, You are a brave soul. I was going to stay out of this issue, however after seeing the colors in person I have one thought. THESE NEW GRAY COLORS ARE MEGABLOCK COLORS!

I've already addressed why I don't believe the reason given for the new colors, so I won't get into that here. However... My wife is going be very happy this year as a direct result of the new colors, because I'll be buying much less new lego. For (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)

I like the introduction of new colors (light yellow, sand colors, dark red), but to replace colors is something else. As far as I know, LEGO has only discontinued one color in the past (Maersk blue) and that is solely because it was a promotional (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, FTX)

I do not own any of the new colors, but one of my friends do, so I have seen them first hand. First off, I am annoyed at the REPLACEMENT of colors, due to the fact I have just about built up enough Dark Gray and Brown to build an entire creation in (...)

Jake, Thanks for the "official" opportunity to be heard. I'll spare you the history, but suffice it to say that LEGO has been a part of my life for the past 34 years, and is one of the things that keeps me young. I posted a poll on LUGnet about this (...)
