I've now got my first firsthand experience with the new colors, so here goes: LT gray is so close, I wonder why you bothered at all. Old Dk grey is better for rocks and earthly matters New dk grey is kind of more interesting to look at. As far as (...) (22 years ago, 16-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, FTX)

Hi Jake. Thanks for asking. This is my first post in regards to this topic, although I feel very strongly about it. My biggest concern is that this is an omen of things to come. After producing these colors for over twenty years, they are changed so (...) (22 years ago, 16-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)

Hi Jake, I'm not exactly a huge poster here on lugnet, but I am a collector of huge amounts of lego. I only got back into lego a couple of years ago so I no doubt don't have the collections other folks here do. I strongly oppose the colour change. (...)

Much like the numerous previous opinions, I agree that the color diversification is a good thing, but not at the expense of established colors. However, the central issue for me is not that my greys and browns will become antiquated and mismatched. (...) (22 years ago, 16-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, FTX)

I have seen pictures of the new grays (which I hate) and I heard that they're also changing brown and the minifigs face tone too. Does anyone have any pictures of these other changes that they can link me too please? -Jeff (I hate the gray change!) (22 years ago, 16-Jan-04, to lugnet.general)

Jake - I don't like the change to the colours. I think it's a big mistake. I'm aged 30, and I've been buying Lego for myself for 25 years. Bricks and plates have been available in light grey for that long, as have mini-figures. I regard both as (...) (22 years ago, 16-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)

I think it's bad idea whose karmic boomerang will come back at TLG in more ways than I think any of us can now predict. 1. Compatibility no longer exists. I hope the Consumers Affairs division is ready to handle the increase in complaints. 2. Any (...) (22 years ago, 16-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)

The new colors, in and of themselves, are fine. Others have done a great job expressing concern about the real issue - deprecating the old colors - and almost all of those reasons are near and dear to me as well, including the longer-term inability (...)
