Well if anyone's keeping track, I've purchased ONE set (MINI Star Destroyer)
with the new colours so far. It was cheap and for a specific part (ironic thing
is that the part was in new light grey). Opening this set was so difficult -
not because it was a MISB classic - but because I just could not bear to witness
the new colours. The set is still sitting on my desk, collecting dust, in the
original packaging, with only a pair of 8x4 wings removed.
Meanwhile, I don't have an exact count on how many pre-2003 sets I've purchased
from stores in 2004, but it's definitely many more than 1. I've also spent
$300+ (80+ "sets") at S@H recently in an effort to stock up on the original 3
colours.
My monetary spending amounts may pale in comparison to Tom and others, but like
many others, if you compare my pre-2003 set purchases to 2004+ sets, you'll
notice a huge discrepancy.
