  Re: Nicely now. What do you think of the new colors?
 
(...) I don't have any of the new color pieces yet, but I've seen the new greys. I haven't seen the other new colors (e.g. brown) however. I think the real problem is that the old greys are too yellowish, not that there's anything wrong with the new (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: Nicely now. What do you think of the new colors?
 
I am very tempted to say a lot about this issue but as most is already said, I’ll keep it short: As an engineer of profession I will just repeat the old saying that can never be repeated too often: Don’t repair something that is not broken! This in (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Nicely now. What do you think of the new colors?
 
Jake & All, Thanks for the opportunity to give you some feedback. I know this is a delicate issue, as I have heard from various AFOL's from "Don't buy LEGO products" to letter campaigns to others, and I have read the responses so far in this thread, (...)

  Re: Nicely now. What do you think of the new colors?
 
Adding new colors is a good thing, in my option, but that's not what's happened here. AFOL's argue about new colors, but the worst case scenario is that hated new colors can be ignored (placed in a storage bin and never used), or they can be sold to (...)

  Re: Nicely now. What do you think of the new colors?
 
I wasn't going to get involved with this, as I didn't want to get caught up in the debates. Thanks for the chance to state an opinion without all the noise. As a parent, I have to say that the replacing of the colors doesn't make any sense to me. My (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: Nicely now. What do you think of the new colors?
 
(...) Yup, I am really excited about some of the new sets. Namely, that new Harry Potter shack, looks very good as a source of house parts. (...) Well, here's my tiny little input on the matter of new colours: I don't hate them. In fact, I think (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: set 7221
 
(...) I cut the DPI in half, so you should be able to load it better. The main reason I left the image so large was for the detail. (URL) (22 years ago, 15-Jan-04, to lugnet.promo, lugnet.general, lugnet.org.us.baylug, lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)
 
  Re: Nicely now. What do you think of the new colors?
 
I've just got a small amount of the new grey's in the Imperial Shuttle. Whilst the both colors are fine as part colors, and could be usefull in some models, i feel that i much prefer the origional grey bricks as general parts. The old grey is much (...)

  Re: Nicely now. What do you think of the new colors?
 
<snip> Jake, Thanks for actively bringing up this topic. When I heard that colors were being replaced, it was like a punch in the stomach for me. I have been a LEGO fan, collector, builder, and proponent for much of my life. (I am 26, and have been (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)
