I am so mad at Lego right now.

So, next year, they're releasing a new theme designed "just for girls", Friends, which is just as pink and frilly as Belville was, but at least the characters are closer to normal lego scale. They _should_ have been proper minifigs, like in the old Paradisa sets, but at least it looks like the hair pieces are compatible.

So why am I complaining, you ask? Because if the pictures that have been leaked on the internet are accurate, they've changed the color palette for the bricks. WHY?!?!? They already had pastel colors, why do they need new shades? It's hard enough to match the rarer hues as it is, so why did they need more? At this rate, I'll never be able to build an accurate MOC of Arcee. Sigh. Stupid Lego.

Of course I'm still going to buy them all for my nieces. But I'll be doing it with a snarl on my face.
