| (...) Great points. Facts=Good. Pictures=best way to represent color facts. Actual parts are even better than pictures. We'll have to think of some way to incorporate your idea above. (Kind of like "Exhibit #1" at a court trial - I like it) I think (...) (21 years ago, 1-Dec-04, to lugnet.color, lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)

| (...) Well, they've been around for MORE than 20 years (1977 for dark grey and 1974/77 for brown, if you count the maxifig hair which probably wasn't ABS). So, yeah, maybe saying "more than 20 years" or "more than 25 years" (nice round number). (...) (21 years ago, 1-Dec-04, to lugnet.color, lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)

| OK Folks, I know I made a fuss about still whining about the color change after a year, but you folks are now NOT whining, your actually doing something. Yes, I would support and sign that letter. Although I rarely build with gray parts, I do use a (...) (21 years ago, 1-Dec-04, to lugnet.color, lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, FTX)

I don't know specifically, but I would assume (note the word "assume") that since the entire Spider-man line is licensed, that the licensing body would have a say in the design, or the fact that so many licensed figures (Mary Jane, Peter (...)

| (...) Actually, I 100% agree with you there (and did before I posted) - and the LEGO magazines I've seen for 10+ yrs proves your point. I agree that brick size and shape are MUCH more important (and hinted at that in the letter, so it didn't appear (...) (21 years ago, 1-Dec-04, to lugnet.color, lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, FTX)

| (...) There is a factual error here. Dark grey and brown have not been around for 20 years. You probably want to annex the letter with a detailed description of which colours have changed, with a photo, or even real parts, as an example if you want. (...)

| Thanks for the feedback. (...) Good Point. I argued that internally as well, and thought that the promise on color consistency was a stretch (at best) so it's good to see some opinions that support that counter-point of view. Please also see my (...) (21 years ago, 30-Nov-04, to lugnet.color, lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)

Take a look at the "kid creations" in the LEGO Magazine. Things are made of all different colours put (...) (21 years ago, 30-Nov-04, to lugnet.color, lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, FTX)
