I know that everyone has different want lists of LEGO piece.  When LEGO
Direct opens the flood gates for Bulk Orders, what are (hopefully) your
first top 10 ordered items?  Here's mine (with initial quantity):

1) 2x2 white cylinder bricks (2000).
2) 2x2 white tiles (1000).
3) 1x1 white tiles (300).
4) 1x5x4 red half arches (100).
5) 2x4 clear bricks (1000).
6) 3x3 blue low sloped corner bricks (100).
7) 4x3 grey low sloped bricks (300).
8) 1x4x5 large yellow windows (100).
9) 1x4 white railings - straight (300).
10) 1x4 white railings - curved (300).

Of course, this assumes that you can order parts in colors that are not
in current sets.
