You know what I really love about the Bulk Brick packs from Lego? You don't
have to buy something if you don't want to! Imagine that! Finally, the
pieces are being made available to the people who want them, in the amounts
they want! Isn't that beautiful? So if (horror of horrors) Lego actually

evidenced on ebay, and makes them available in, say, a 20 pack for $8, you
STILL won't have to start filling tubs with them! Really!
