I am aware of the ‘older colors being offered in other bulk packs’. My post is in reference to the packs of 50 2x4’s each, not the special ‘10,000 run only’ release of the older colors in assorted sizes that your link refers to. I don’t seem to remember a post regarding the 50 count, same size packs.

(...) These packs have the same SKU as the "old dark gray" bricks. There is no reason to believe that these are not the "old gray". If they were the "new gray", I should think they would assign a new SKU. The only difinitive way to find out would be (...) (20 years ago, 21-Jun-04, to lugnet.lego.direct, FTX)
