More Feedback Wanted (Element Color Vote)

[Staff]

I like how LEGO is asking fans directly what they want, and I love that this time I don't have to sift through three pages of suggestions and comments to summarize you thoughts like in the previous outreach. The scope is narrower in this request, but it sounds a lot more promising for builders out there. Here's the topic of the day:
Hi LEGO Fans,

the LEGO Community Development would like to know which of the already existing elements would be needed most urgently in missing colors. Some optimism presumed the number one of the resulting list could end in a "color change" and might be produced in the future.

To participate - the way is as follows:
Suggestions need to be send by email until the 30.06.2010. These suggestions will be sorted and afterwards published for a voting. The final chart will be send to the LCD Team.

For easier handling the suggestions should be aligned to the description of the BrickLink catalogue:
http://www.bricklink.com/catalogTree.asp?itemType=P

Suggestions only will be accepted in a color which is still in production. So e.g."Fabuland brown" is invalid because production of this color was stoped in 1997. An overview about the actual colors could be downloaded here:

An example:

Part No: 50746
Name: Slope 30 1 x 1 x 2/3
New color: brick-yellow (tan)

The suggestions should be send to this email address: ccf@x-brick.de

Awesome! This will require some thoughtful reflection and research. Thanks for sharing!

I think that's all that needs to be said.

Just to clarify, should we be using that email address in the opening post individually, or is a rep from FBTB going to be forwarding on this info?

I think I probably seconded all your trans-yellow canopy requests. We might actually see something out of that, as I've heard a LOT of people have requested them.

[Draykov]

Oooh...one more that Morgan reminded me of in another thread:

Part No: 2447
Name: Minifig visor (standard)

[meeotch]

Part No: 33078

New Color: brick yellow

oh, the joke MOCs people will make with this piece... might as well make it in flesh and brown as well.

[Solo]

A MAN CAN'T LIKE MUSTARD COVERED HOTDOGS WITHOUT AN INQUISITION AND JUDGMENTAL LOOKS?

[The Brain]

ʘ_ʘ

WE ARE JUDGING YOU...

[Draykov]

oh, the joke MOCs people will make with this piece... might as well make it in flesh and brown as well.

According to Bricklink, it already comes in flesh (not light flesh or dark flesh...just "flesh")

A MAN CAN'T LIKE MUSTARD COVERED HOTDOGS WITHOUT AN INQUISITION AND JUDGMENTAL LOOKS?

I was thinking more along the lines of knackwurst or bratwurst in ze style of ze Germans. "Brick yellow," after all, is tan to the rest of us.

[Draykov]

Okay, looks like this is starting to come to fruition. Found this over at Eurobricks...

Some (new?) color related voting going on over at Eurobricks. Not sure if it's directly related to what's already been going on.
