I dunno if it was so much a question of being right or not-- I think the
difference of opinion was "is this a big deal" or not. There was some
disagreement about whether or not they made any "promise" to us that they broke
in re-releasing the Maersk blue again, but I know the contention was that Lego
didn't legally HAVE to do anything. Whether or not they SHOULD was another
matter, as well as whether or not our enthusiasm for the product would diminish
if they didn't.
Personally, I'm glad they apologized and made the offer to buy back Maersk ships
(although if we hear that that offer hurts the company significantly, I'll be a
lot less glad), but I didn't think it was a huge deal if they didn't do
anything.

| Not bad at all! I suppose this is as good as it can possibly get. However, this statement should have been made a bit earlier. How long could it take to come up with a press release like that? Or was the general idea to let the dust settle a bit (...) (20 years ago, 27-Jan-05, to lugnet.lego)
