(...) I like my Lego people as classic yellow smilies too. I don't really like the new minifigs with different expressions and stuff. I like them yellow, smiling and maybe with sunglasses or a pirate face. But then I'm a 1970s-mid-90s kinda gal... (...) (22 years ago, 5-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)

(...) You HAVE to be joking.... there's NO railroad tie, either wood, concrete or whatever other material that has such a blue tone in it. They'd even do better to simply convert it to brown than to use the new dark grey color. -- Jan-Albert van Ree (22 years ago, 5-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)

(...) Thanks for listening and understanding. Sorry your ears are taking a bashing! You're doing better than other companies would do. Please explain the "good thinking" though.

Speaking of baseplates, U agree that 48 x 48 in Trans-clear would be fantastic (I could easily buy a couple dozen). But more importantly, can we have some BROWN large baseplates?? The 32 x 32 baseplate in brown was only available in one set (#232), (...) (22 years ago, 5-May-04, to lugnet.general)

(...) I'm shocked no one has asked the following question: Just which colors are "universal" and which colors aren't? I'm assuming from what you write that non-universal colors can be changed, from time to time. As an AFOL, it would be great to know (...) (22 years ago, 5-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)

The solid news is appreciated. Personally, I still don't believe that the Lugnet community knows the true reasons for the color change. Also, I don't think we have heard of the "good" effects these changes were supposed to produce. I have been (...) (22 years ago, 5-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego, FTX)

(...) I'm just eager that the track should not change *again*. OK, new light grey would be OK, and new dark grey tolerable at a push (it makes old dark grey look silly) but given that track pieces are some of the most expensive ones, changing them (...)
