I quote Brad here:

" Also, we will not be offering items which are currently out of production, at
least for some time (I can't make any promises here.)"

Mike, I concur.   If you look at what is not easily available in sets, then some
of the items I listed on a previous post are valid:  clear slopes - rare in most
any set,  2x2 windows - great for making skyscrapers (1x4x5 or 1x4x6 are too
large for skyscrapers), tiles - in certain sizes and colors, corner slopes -
especially low and steep slopes (rare in all sets), 2x2 rounds, and of course
train windows and window glass.

I personally would order 1,000 (or more) of each of these items (except for the
train windows, which I don't use).

In that case, there should be no reason why they can't mold them in "strange" colors while they are filling (...) (25 years ago, 29-Feb-00, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.general)
