BUT you can get yellow and black plate packs from Pitsco.  The price isn't
too outrageous either.  That's why I just ordered $100 worth of plates from
them :/

Bottom right.


But YES, I wish S@H would carry, at the least, their plate packs in ALL
colors currently available, including orange, purple, and aqua.  Not to
mention all slope and brick packs in all colors.

I'll amend that even though I fear it will never happen.  Make the
plate packs available in ALL colors currently in production.  In fact,
while you're at it, how about making the brick packs available in all
colors as well?

This year, for example, 6x16 plates are only made in grey and black. So
any pack including those would only be available in those two colours.
Is that acceptable to us?

Oh, I haven't been shown that what we find acceptable matters to TLG,
so I guess it doesn't matter.  If it meant we could only get black and
gray plate packs instead of red and blue I'm not sure too many people
would mind, though.

Personally, I think all basic bricks and plates should be available in
ALL colors, period.  When I said all colors currently in production I
meant that if any piece is made in purple, plates should be, etc.  I
didn't mean to say what I think you thought I said.  In my perfect
world, 6x16 plates wouldn't only be made in grey and black, but also
in every other color.

It won't happen, though.

(...) Hrmmm.... thanks for posting that - I forgot. I count 72 pieces in that pack. At $7.50 each that isn't a bad price per piece, I guess. I might just have to order some myself, but here is another case when I would much rather order from S@H (...) (26 years ago, 30-Sep-98, to lugnet.dear-lego)

The plate pack only goes up to 6x10. Then again, it's better than what S@H offers... Steve (...) (26 years ago, 30-Sep-98, to lugnet.dear-lego)
