I would HOPE that most people here realize that Jake is just the messenger here...
I would also hope that Jake realizes we are not mad at him, but mad at some
immense BONEHEADS in TLG that must have custom-picked their focus groups from the
nearest mental hospitals. It's just that he is the only one here for us to
complain to (though I intend to call Consumer Affairs at 1-800-453-4677 (and they
used to also be available at 1-800-GAB-LEGO) to voice my displeasure with this
choice).
Oh, and if this was a way to increase sales and cut down on Bricklink sales, it
might work - I might be buying sets while I still can, and pulling all my
light/dark grey and brown from my BL store. But it will only be a SHORT sales
increase. Once I start seeing the new colors, the buying stops.
