I don't think that is 100% accurate because I don't remember seeing 2x4 Brown
Roof Peeks in any set to date. I think we are definitely more likely to see
parts if they are part of a current production run but I definitely don't think
that is absolutely necessary.

I would agree that Green is a good candidate using the "Current Production"
theory. I think all we are missing are 2x2 Concave, the Gable End connector,
and Roof Peeks (I know we had some 2x2 Green Peeks in a Ninja set fairly
recently but I don't think it is still in production).
I would suggest that Gray and Dark Gray are both good candidates at the moment
with Blue and Tan being on the outside looking in and the rest of the colors
bringing up the rear.

I don't know about replacing my current roofs but I would love to add variety
to my town and have an easily accessable 3rd color option. Actually a 4th and
5th color would be nice too but I would rather have 3 colors available with all
the associated elements then have a bunch of colors and only have 2x4 and 2x2
slopes and 2x4 peeks.
