What one (or more) piece(s), NOT yet made (i.e., no mold has ever existed
for it) would you like to see LEGO make?  Simple question.  And no, existing
parts in off colors don't count.  No pink pitchforks and such. ;-)

First thought:
http://guide.lugnet.com/partsref/search.cgi?q=2462
and
http://guide.lugnet.com/partsref/search.cgi?q=6107
the facet bricks, in five-high.  Unfortunately, TLC didn't get interested in
five-high bricks until after the corner wall
http://guide.lugnet.com/partsref/search.cgi?q=2345
had come out (for that matter, I think the facet bricks themselves came out a
couple years after the corner wall).  Facet bricks don't stack attractively
(due to the cutout which allows them to be placed over studs) (and are really
expensive).  Due to their design, corner walls have an irritatingly large
footprint, are thinwalls (not really that appropriate for *stone*), and (at
least locally) fix ceiling height.

Second thought:
a slope 75 analogue of
http://guide.lugnet.com/partsref/search.cgi?q=3046
the double concave slope.  Just the thing for a batter. . .at least, if the
other slope 75s were available and affordable.

(...) (snip) (...) i'd like to see roof slopes that combine different pitches in one block, so one could make a roof with different pitches on different sides--example: similar to the piece mentioned above, but allow 33+45, 45+75, & 33+75 deg. (...) (23 years ago, 17-Dec-01, to lugnet.dear-lego)
