Eurobricks is reporting that due to overwhelming demand from the online LEGO fan community, LEGO has apparently decided to resume production of the old light grey and dark grey colors.
According to color psychologist, Carl Renbaugh:
It is very detrimental to one’s psyche when one suffers the loss of an important color in one’s life. Adult Fans of LEGO have been living with extreme psychological anguish for a number of years now. Reinstating these colors is a very compassionate move by The LEGO Company.
So, there you are, people. Old grey is alive and well!
