Right now I’m hesitant to buy any of the sets with the new colors, until I decide how I’m going to sort the new colors into my collection, and I think I will always be a little less inclined to buy sets with the new colors than the old. For the next while, I’ll be more inclined to buy secondhand Lego sets and bricks than new ones in the new colors.
