Josh,
You forgot the most important element: ORANGE! Tan and Silver and Teal and
Dark Gray and Green are neat-o, but they can't light a candle to some good ol'
General Lee orange. I would also like to see more and more of the Purple
they're using on the Grimace vehicle McDonald's premium. Give me a bucket of
about 500 bricks, plates, slopes, and car fenders (standalone & linked to a
slope), and other elements in Orange, Violet Purple, Green, Tan, Basic Gray,
Dk. Gray, gold, Silver, and metallic silvery-blue and I will be glad to give
the Lego Group about $9-$12 US.
