  Re: color problems with 10190
 
Given the colour variations in MEGA BLOKS I am sure they do just in time dying as well. BUT man it sure drops the quality of LEGOs product. So instead of pre-dyed plastic pellets, they either batch dye or on the fly dye them as they mold. NEITHER (...) (17 years ago, 4-Jul-07, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: color problems with 10190
 
(...) I do believed that they out sourced the making of the bricks to Flextronics. I could be wrong, but I remember reading that somewhere. They are building a factory in Juarex Mexico to make the bricks. I hope that you are right, but I do remember (...) (17 years ago, 4-Jul-07, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: color problems with 10190
 
(...) LEGO has NOT "outsourced" making the bricks. They did change the way colour is handled. They now add dye to the plastic at the LEGO factory. The change over was not perfect and those colour problems are supposed to go away over time but they (...) (17 years ago, 4-Jul-07, to lugnet.general)

  Re: Different quality of pictures between different browsers in Brickshelf
 
(...) Another factor may be Safari's color management: (URL) I've always been curious about the way Brickshelf has the browser scale the full sized image to fit the page. You don't see that too often these days. I agree with Tim that unless the full (...) (17 years ago, 4-Jul-07, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: color problems with 10190
 
(...) I haven't heard anything about 10190, but a lot of people over on Eurobricks reported problems with 10182 Cafe Corner having different colors. -Elroy (17 years ago, 4-Jul-07, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Different quality of pictures between different browsers in Brickshelf
 
(...) Handy to know. I often wondered why Firefox just uses linear scaling when bicubic is so much better and it looks like Safari has finally done it properly. Let's hope the other browsers pay attention and copy the idea. Of course it doesn't (...) (17 years ago, 4-Jul-07, to lugnet.general)
 
  Different quality of pictures between different browsers in Brickshelf
 
In Brickshelf and other websites that have a smaller previews for a picture I have notice a low quality pictures in IE and Firefox.

  color problems with 10190
 
I just put together 10190 and find that the navy blue bricks come in two or three shades. Has anyone else had this observation? I hope that this is a fluke and not a overall problem since Lego has outsourced the making of the bricks. I opened up a (...) (17 years ago, 4-Jul-07, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Sometimes LEGO makes me crazy
 
(...) [snip] (...) Hi Duane, for a rectangular shape of a tunnel this propellor would not be perfectly right, but I would guess, that this is the so far best prop, which LEGO has done: (URL) a weak spot this one has the gear wheel fixed to the axle, (...)
