I like the introduction of new colors (light yellow, sand colors, dark red), but to replace colors is something else. As far as I know, LEGO has only discontinued one color in the past (Maersk blue) and that is solely because it was a promotional color only available to a limited audience, so it is to be expected somewhat. I agree with other AFOLs that the logic behind this change seems illogical, especially for a company that is reknowned with quality and COMPATIBILITY. I would say that I have a lot of the greys, but to have to fight other AFOLs for the now limited supply makes me not want to buy LEGO at all right now. Brown has not been a color people have felt passionately enough about to defend, but the new brown is just not as bright and LEGO-like as the old.I beg that the company stick with tradtion during this restructure and find that decisions such as this one were not the most well thought out plans.
