Wow, John! Now *that's* taking the initiative ;)
I suspect that the color bags do not all contain 90 bricks each then? A
simple calculation of 90 bricks per bag * the number of bags per set yields
vastly differing amounts. A minimum of 1936 1x1s are needed to fill the
44x44 interior space of a bordered 48x48 plate, right (44x44 = 1936).
According to my calculations below, these bags must contain differing
numbers of bricks per bag. If we assume 90 bricks per bag :
K34431 Cat : 21 bags = 1890 1x1s (Too few bricks?)
K34432 Dino : 31 bags = 2790 1x1s (Overkill?)
K34433 Johnny : 23 bags = 2070 1x1s (Just about right)
K34334 Tiger : 25 bags = 2250 1x1s (A bit too many)
John, I sure appreciate your validating the exact color-to-set breakdown. I
would like to provide a set matching algorithm for my MosaicMapper app to
suggest the appropriate sets to buy to meet the color breakdown of the
user's custom mosaic.

I suspect the 13 white bags (and/or maybe the 7 black) in the Dino is just wrong and will verify that when it's in (...) (22 years ago, 14-Feb-03, to lugnet.build.sculpture)
