| (...) You are right. The colour change is not a joking issue. Some of the reactions to it, on the other hand, certainly are! (...) LOL. If I had a 2x4 brick for every time someone claimed to "rethink their Lego habit" (or "buy less of your product (...) (22 years ago, 27-Feb-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, lugnet.org, FTX)

The composition is really just to make it like a newspaper comic strip-- four equal sized panels. (...) (22 years ago, 27-Feb-04, to lugnet.general)

Do I get a virtual chrome brick no-prize? Very cool, can't wait for (...) (22 years ago, 26-Feb-04, to lugnet.general)
