I havent said much on the issue, but every time I see a new dark grey brick
my stomach turns because it a) doesnt match my old bricks and b) looks like a
blah color to me. It just doesnt look right. Every non-afol person Ive told of
the change thinks its stupid. Brickshelf has a poll that says only 11% are
happy with the color replacement.
TLC says not many people are complaining (according to other posts), so maybe
something should be done to inform people other than hard core afols (maybe a
banner or something on the major sites that occasional users would see) to call
Consumer Affairs and voice their concern. Maybe then there would be a small
chance of getting the old colors back. What are three more colors among dozens
of lesser used colors to TLC anyway? If too many colors are a problem, get rid
of lime green and give me my dark grey back!
