Yes. But there probably aren't any of these left, it was blown out for $7 as
a S@H special last week (and continuing with the last one for this week).

The flower is made up of 6 pieces:

"peach" base
Light green large 3 leaf plant
Green 3 stem plant base
3 white flowers (larger than System flowers)

I'm assuming that that's the case (I actually assumed this before I had a

Tile have a very smooth finish. Slopes (except for the McDonalds printed
ones) have a slightly rough surface on the sloped face. The Scala 6x6 tile
has a surface which is not smooth, but doesn't look as rough as the sloped
surface on a slope.

See my other post for a discussion of colors...
