  Re: Color Change - Final Update
 
(this is pretty much a translation of what I wrote on 1000steine.de already) (...) Sorry I can't see ANY good news, all I see is a big PR blurb in a desparate attempt to regain some lost ground. (...) So much for your corporate values then.... (...) (22 years ago, 5-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)

Hello Jake, I know that you have heard a lot of... concerns, but I would like to add some praise along with my input. I am glad that TLC has decided to retain the gray, brown, drk gray colors. I was terribly afraid that TLC had done away with these (...) (22 years ago, 5-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)

(...) I look forward to the list of 'universal' colors! (...) I'd like to see train wheelsets (trucks)(2878c01) and decorative sides (2871) maintained in the old gray color. It would be nice to have some variety for train modeling. I agree that the (...) (22 years ago, 5-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)
 
  Re: Color Change - Final Update
 
(...) 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. IMHO "good thinking" would be to make future new colours more realistic (...) (22 years ago, 5-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego) ! 
 
  Re: Color Change - Final Update
 
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)
 
  Re: Color Change - Final Update
 
(...) 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)
