I emphathize with your sentiments on the color change, Terry.

I'm very happy to see that TLG is truly making an effort to involve us
AFOL's much more deeply in the real nuts and bolts of the company, but I'm
always going to feel like it should've come sooner.  If it had, then perhaps
I wouldn't have the bittersweet feeling that the color change always leaves
in my mouth when I see new product announcements.  The Legends, MOC, and
Designer sets are indeed fantastic, but my joy is always undercut a little
by the knowledge that I'll be sorting a percentage of the set for resale.  I
still love the brick, and I still love the company, but it's not the same
feeling.

On the bright side, perhaps with this increasing involvement we AFOL's can
make our voices heard loud enough to maybe get TLG to switch back?  Wouldn't
that be incredible?!  I could tolerate monkeys flying out of my butt if I
could buy new sets with the original greys and browns in them!  Coke Classic
came back REAL QUICK.

Yours in hope!

Dave
