I think that The LEGO Group should let you use a santioned LEGO "Cad"
program to comstruct a model, and then order those pieces as a "set".
Basically they'd just polybag and ship them.  Advantages to us: We can
get any pieces we want, in any color.  Disadvantages: would cost a bit
more than normal sets.  Advantages to LEGO: um, customer loyalty?  Might
be able to make a tidy profit off of them, even if they sell a few...
Disadvantages: probably expensive.  :)  Also, they should have a
"classic" line where they release one or two older sets a year, ones
that where (or are) popular.
