(...) Peeron supports your opinion. If we're getting into unproduced pieces, I've got a MOC that is now on permanent hiatus because I need four of these in classic light-grey: (URL) bought a bunch of pieces to complete the MOC, and I've just (...)

I'm glad to hear that TLC might continue service packs in the original colors. Could you give us an idea of how the current original-color packs are doing, sales-wise? This is what I would like to see continue to be sold in the original colors: (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego, FTX) !!

I never knew this vault existed. Wow. That is the coolest room ever. I assume most, if not all, of those sets are unopened. Seeing that stack of monorail sets made me envious . . . . (22 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.general)

(...) The simple answer is you didn't. Ever. Not in so many words, at least. However, to quote the last sentence on p16 of the 2002 LEGO Brand Guide, "All LEGO elements, whether produced in Denmark or Switzerland, in 1958 or 2001, are fully (...)

(...) Yes you can. It's done all the time. Any color of ABS can be easily recycled into black, because the carbon used to color it will overpower any other dyes. Other colors are entirely dependant upon what you want to recycle them into. You can't (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)

(...) They're usually hidden enough that light-bley shouldn't matter, but even just the pin tips on the blue/tan axle-pins stick out pretty bad compared to the old black/light-grey versions.

(...) Personally, for myself, the only problem the new colors represent is storage. I cannot possibly mix them in with the old colors. What I don't like is how the new Strata 1000pc tub comes with the stupid lime, orange and light blue colors. It (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)

(...) They're just making the two axle-pins in blue (friction) and tan (non-friction). That's bad enough. The only pin that's ever been made in dark-grey is the 1.5 pin, and light-bley is close enough to light-grey that what few pins they'll (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)
