I preferred it when they were black, a far more neutral colour for building
realistic models. Since it is a structural element, you *have* to use them
in many places, and the coloured ones can clash with the colour scheme of a
model.

Blacks and greys are definitely the right thing for these elements IMHO.
I believe the issue is that having the axle pegs in black/grey resulted in
confusion (at least for a fair bit of the target market) between the axle
pegs and the regular pegs.

Or something along those lines anyway (I can see how it could be possible
to confuse the 2, I do it all the time :)

My only complaint is that I have to keep my black friction axle pegs
seperate from my black really-old non-friction axle pegs :)
