  Re: Announcing new Legend!
 
(...) I agree. I get tired of each new thread Jake starts turning into a color complaint. It makes it difficult to enjoy reading a thread. That's probably why I had an edge to the words in my first reply to him. (22 years ago, 7-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)
 
  Re: Announcing new Blegend!
 
(...) Regardless of their level of skill and expertise, they can and will put the word LEGEND on top of a box if they want to. (...) The change to this set IS minor. This thread is about the new legend, and the slightly changed grey is a minor (...) (22 years ago, 7-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)
 
  Re: Announcing new Legend!
 
Wow! How cool! I really liked that set, errrm "Model". I broght 4 of them back in the day. Some of the parts helped me build the Little Blue Bot. Good news, thank you! e (22 years ago, 7-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)
 
  Re: Announcing new Legend!
 
Nice choice, Jake! Of course, I already own 3-5 in blue, and 2 in red (I built a Red Fury before *you* guys did!). Make my day - release part 6005 in yellow so I can finally make a Yellow Fury (I KNOW they exist, they were used as fingers on the (...) (22 years ago, 7-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)
 
  Re: Announcing new legend!
 
(...) And the same to you. I was asking Giddens where you had disappeared off to a few weeks ago, and now here you are posting again. Good to hear from you! -Tim (22 years ago, 7-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego, FTX)
 
  Re: We Build For Fun, Right? (was Re: Announcing new legend!)
 
(...) It doesn't bug me. If they're only going to stick around to complain, then I'd rather not have to filter through their posts. (...) Yes, I think it's quite extreme. It puzzles me, but it doesn't upset me. To each his own. -Tim (22 years ago, 7-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)
 
  Re: Announcing new legend!
 
(...) Tim, Agreed. Yes, there are some strong arguments on each side (I have yet to voice my concern for it, let alone for parts) but I think we should talk about set concepts and theme issues and sweet MOCs. Also, "Hello to you" as I haven't spoken (...) (22 years ago, 7-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego, FTX)
 
  We Build For Fun, Right? (was Re: Announcing new legend!)
 
(...) It was that last sentence that really got me thinking. Some posts I've seen put up about going into a "quasi-dark-age" have just left me uneasy. There is nothing wrong voicing displeasure with what LEGO has done but to take as far as "That's (...) (22 years ago, 7-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)
 
  Re: Announcing new Legend!
 
Great news Jake, and thanks for the heads-up! Hopefully there are a few more in the works :) James (22 years ago, 7-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego, FTX)
 
  Re: Announcing new legend!
 
(...) So when will enough have been said? When the thread reaches 300 posts? 400? 1000? When the change is finally reverted [1]? From reading your posts, I don't think it will _e.ver_ be enough for you. Not even if you get your way in the end, (...) (22 years ago, 7-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)  
 
  Re: Announcing new Legend!
 
Thanks Jake and Lego! I'm excited about being able to get a model team set, this would be my first. Please continue to publish legends regardless of the color issue. Mark (22 years ago, 7-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego, FTX)
 
  Re: Announcing new legend!
 
WOW, first off Dave, let me say it is nice to see somone able to have rational thoughts about the color issue. It seems as though too many folks are not interested in discussing things just stating "it sucks" or "get over it". Now I will certainly (...)

  Re: most wanted parts/color combination?

  Re: Announcing new Legend!
 
Sweet! I love that line of Model Team stuff!! That is a good set to release as a Legend, good for parts or as an "Executive Display" piece. Awesome! I'd love to see some more Legends surface, be they Castle or not. :o) -Aaron- (22 years ago, 7-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego, FTX)
 
  Re: Announcing new legend!
 
(...) Together, yes, I can tell. Takes a second, but I can tell. It's not overly hard. Put them together on a MOC? if they're on a flat surface, side by side, then, yes, you can see that something's slightly off. Put them together on the same MOC a (...)

  Parts Colour Availability Equality
 
Whilst other threads focus on old and new colours (please keep those out of this one), there is a general issue of parts availability that I think should be addressed in the marketing strategy of the Lego company. Many of us like to buy parts in (...) (22 years ago, 7-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)
 
  Re: Request for Feedback - focused thread
 
Old colours * 48x48 baseplate in old lt grey * train track in old dk grey * 1x2 and 1x4 log bricks in old brown New colours * easy access in bulk to "common" parts in the new shades (and if S@H can't/won't cope, pile it high in the Pick-A-Brick and (...)

  Re: Color Change - Final Update
 
(...) I agree, anything that should be made out of wood should be available in the old color. The old brown looks more like actual wood to me than the new one. Along with that things like 1x1 brown cylinders and 2x2 round bricks and plates for use (...) (22 years ago, 7-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)
