Sorry, Josh, but it's not. The discoloring effect does
happen in odd environments, but not like this. I noticed the
"bluing" in the dark grey when I bought the Star Destroyer the
other day; I initially wondered if it was the light, but yester-
day I parted out about 30 HP sets from 2002 and 2003 and
all show a darker, colder grey than that in the SD. I
hadn't noticed the adhesion question; I'll be very upset
if this is indeed the case. I'm confused about the reason
for the change in color; the adhesion question might be
an easier one, but consistency of color is pretty important!
It's pretty sad if LEGO is heading towards Megabloks ter-
ritory instead of concentrating on the level of quality
and precision that makes them LEGO and not MB. MB keeps
getting better--I was actually quite impressed by the
new releases in the Dragons line. When this comes from
a guy with nearly a metric ton of LEGO (yours truly), I
hope it carries a little bit of weight (nudge nudge, LEGO
company lurkers). Kids do actually notice this stuff.
Oh well, time to stock up on my dark grey now, so at least
my ships will match!
