Please make a pack containing the following parts:

new 1 x 4 x 3 window with glass
1 x 4 x 6 door frame with new glass door
1 x 4 x 6 door frame with new non-glass door
1 x 4 x 6 window frame (with and without the extra lines of plastic across
the middle) with glass
sloping roof window with glass

Make the frames white with clear glass or black with clear glass (I want
black but that would require new mold runs for the frames whereas the
frames all exist in white)

They did make the service pack already, it is the

Seriously, why would they require new molds for a different colour? Would they
not just change the colour that they are injecting into them? Is that not the
normal process?
I didnt say new moulds. I said new mould runs. They already make the parts
in white, they dont make them in black. Ergo, its more expensive to put the
black parts in a set than it is to put the white parts in.
