  Re: LEGO sucks!
 
(...) I really hope someone hacked into your system and wrote this message. I would be really embarassed to be associated with a hobby in which fans speak with such lack of class and civility. If this is the way AFOLs behave (and I stress the A for (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego, FTX)

(...) Density (PS is lighter IIRC, check with Google or something), strength (ABS is more resistant to bending and such) or surface (PS is a bit porous, try a microscope or high-power magnifying glass) (22 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)

(...) Check-By-Phone. I don't use credit cards, and I don't want to wait for my payment to arrive by snail-mail before my shipment can be sent to me. In addition to the fact that S@H usually costs more because of S&H charges, it'd take over a week (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego, lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Color Change - Final Update
 
(...) That's what we've been told. Licensed characters (SW, HP, Spiderman, Dora, etc.) and real-world personalities (Ferrari drivers). Of course, with how badly the NBA minifig 3-pack sold, you have to wonder why the retail chains would still be (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)
 
  Re: LEGO sucks!
 
(...) I don't care for the color change - they should have thought about backwards compatiblity and inviolate colors before they made the change. If they had, I really doubt they would have be having this discussion. That they won't change back is (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)
 
  Re: Jake did good Thanks!!

  Re: Color Change - Final Update
 
(...) Ah, I see now. You were trying to say that the only market that cares strictly about the commitment to listen to AFOL feedback is the AFOL market itself, which I can agree with. Noone else has any reason to care why you did something so much (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)
 
  Re: Color Change - Final Update
 
(...) When BIONICLE accounts for 25% of all LEGO product turnover, investing a little space in special items for that powerful market hardly counts as "squandering" space. It might surprise you to know that the biggest complaint about them is not (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego, lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: LEGO sucks!
 
(...) Dirk, I think this post was rude and uncalled for. How would you like to be called useless? I sure wouldn't. You basically just called Jake a moron. Whether or not you agree with the TLC's decision does not give you the right to have a nasty (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)
