  Re: Nicely now. What do you think of the new colors?
 
Oh man, must resist the urge to go off again. :) Seriously though....... The new grey colors are too blue and look very faded. The light much less than the dark grey, but faded and blue none the less. As for the brown, the old brown was perfect. The (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Nicely now. What do you think of the new colors?
 
Hi Jake, nice to ask us about our feelings, but even if you tell us, TLC will not change back to the old colours, I still wish you would do. Even if that would not heal all the wounds that broke up now. What I personally think about the colour (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, FTX)  
 
  Re: Nicely now. What do you think of the new colors?
 
(...) My take on the issue: For the new grey, the change is rather subtle and unless put right next to eachother I don't see much problems with using the color in new models I will make together with the old grey. For the new dark grey however (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Mindstorms is NOT going away
 
(...) Funny it doesn't mention the Designer/Creator series... lines which have no licensing issues and are truly all about the brick. (22 years ago, 15-Jan-04, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Nicely now. What do you think of the new colors?
 
(...) VERY GOOD MOVE, Jake! IMHO, life is full of changes and that's why it makes it interesting and chalenging. We can all adapt in every situations. I understand the concern of certain AFOLs, and here are my thoughts: -First, WHY this decision? I (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  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)
