In regards to your question, I feel certain changes such as wheels and
stickers are totally accaptable, as long as the reason for the change is
explained before hand. The only changes I would be against are changes in
the colour of pieces (I understand baseplate changes) or juniorization of a
set. For example, lets take set 6390, Main Sreeet. Accpetable changes would
be the baseplates being 8-studs and green intead of gray, if the reasons
why, were explained up front. Same thing with the stickers if it was
explained upfront.
I think legends should not only be fan favorites from the past but, extremly
rare sets form the past such as sets- 1589, 1592,and 1490.
Just my 2 cents LD.

Thanks!
