Well, I did a check yesterday; went through my inventory of 8462,
found all the blue parts, and checked to see if I had them in red. A
disappointing experience. :) I totally forgot about both the thin and
thick tubing; I suppose I could use some of the flexible axles from
the 8448 there, but I'd still need more. Also, there are some beams
that I need, some technic wing backs, and some 1x2 with axlehole. (And
then some odds and ends, but those seem to be the hardest to get hold
of.) 8229 supplies some of them, but the others may be hard to get
hold of.
Ah, well, we'll see. Something to keep in the back of my head,
anyway. (And who knows what Technic 2000 will bring?)
