(...) You think so? In my own comparisons, I've found that there are only five opaque colors that really go well with dark-bley (not counting light-bley and light-light-bley, of course), which are black, dark-blue, sand-blue, sand-green, and (...)

(...) *sigh* I'm doing my best to be optimistic about this, just like when I'm hoping that this whole "universal color" thing isn't just something they came up with to milk free AFOL PR out of the fact that they might never have intended to make any (...)

(...) A friend of mine is in a teaching program in Japan, and he's been commenting on some of the more odd instances of culture shock. One of the most interesting ones was finding out that some of the local residents will just cut in line whenever (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)

(...) OK... that what is the real reason for the change? Please don't tell me TLC is applying patent for the new colour... :p And why can't TLC switch back for the mean line, but can still produce old colour if needed? If the new colour is really (...)

Hello Jake, First to respond to your request: At a minimum, I would request all bricks, plates and slopes in all three classic colours. I would further stand behind the requests others have made for specialty pieces. I would add the new pieces which (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego, FTX)

(...) You assume that the monorail will be coming back. Do you know something I don't know, or is this an example of whishful thinking? :-) I'd love for the Monorail to come back.

The fact that TLG decided to keep the new colours simply can not possibly indicate that they did not listen to AFOLs... only that they believe the new (...)
