I want to emphasize (2) as well with respect to the future of classic colors vs.
new colors. Whatever classic color parts may be supplied it is of utmost
importance to clearly identify them. This was obviously done with the limited
edition 10,000 series packs, but the consumer is still in the dark on
pre-existing service packs and such sets as the mosaic line. I love the idea of
more purchase possibilities, but I'd like to see the pre-requisite communication
avenues in place first.
Classic color part priorities:
basic brick, slope, and tile selections
As much as I'd like to continue to build a stock of classic colors, I'd also
like to be able to quickly establish a stock of the new colors. A comprehensive
range of service packs in the new colors, or a big 'ole tub would go a long way
towards getting some of us past the color change hurdle.
Thanks, Jake!
