(...) I had this problem, my wife and I were assembling set, and it was apparent to both of us. I think each type of brick matched it'self, but that the different shades were between 1x2 and 1x4 bricks or somesuch. It was not a major thing, but I (...) (17 years ago, 5-Jul-07, to lugnet.general)

Magnus ol' buddy, I was disheartened to see such a sexist expeditionary force at Brickworld. I'm glad you had a racially integrated fighting force but I saw not a single female trooper. Does this mean that in your future military, you suscribe (...) (17 years ago, 4-Jul-07, to lugnet.general, FTX)

(...) I don't own that set, but I can tell you it's not a fluke. The first set that really sparked notice in this problem was the Harry Potter Knight Bus, with the then-new dark-purple color. Dark-red has since started showing up in seriously (...) (17 years ago, 4-Jul-07, to lugnet.general)
