We currently see axle pins in blue. Not black or any other color (the Tan
ones are a different part, thats why they are a different color).
|
On this, i completely agree. They are two extremely similar parts, and I believe
colour standardisation is needed. However, blue and tan ? Frictionless Axle pins
were grey, Axle pins with friction were black. Easily distinguishable, neutral
colours. Why did they need to change ? For the sake of 2M (lets not debate
weather it should be 2M or 2L) axles and friction pins ? 2M axles at one point
in time were produced in white. neutral, easily distinguishable. All that is
needed is for friction axle pins to be made in something like dark grey and the
other three parts could have remained standard. Blue ? wheres the neutrality in
that.

Axle joiners are one
thing, liftarms are another. Liftarms are weird and limiting enough without
coming only in certain colors. If (for example) 15L Liftarms will never be
produced in any color besides Dark Bley... that just suxors. I can handle
having all of them in one set being the same color- as long as they can be a
different color in some other set.
Clearer?

Just like some of the parts that are or will be standardised, i feel liftarms do
not need to be standardised. Wheather or not it occurs is another thing.
