What LEGO pieces are rare (in regular colors), what pieces are scarce
(note: scarce can also mean that they are in current production sets,
but their demand exceeds supply):

-  2x2 regular slope outside corner bricks:  rare in yellow, scarce in
blue, gray and white, common in red and black.

Common in Gray and Beige, Scarce in Dark Gray (possibly common soon) and
Orange, White in 9748(1), maybe in 7191 UCS X-Wing, yellow available in 740.

-  2x2 & 2x4 regular slope peak bricks:  rare in white, yellow, scarce
in blue, common in red, black, unknown in gray (?).

2x2's scarce in gray.

-  2x2 gable connector peak bricks:  scarce in black and gray, common in
red, blue, unknown in white or yellow (?).

Common in Dark Gray.

-  1x2 half pyramid peak brick:  rare in yellow (I saw my first one ever
on EBAY recently - where are they from?), scarce in black and gray,
common in red, unknown in white (?).

Scarce in Blue, Common in Black, Brown, and Gray, Yellow possibly available in
740.

white, common in red and blue, unknown in gray (?).

Black is scarce.  Red is insanely common.  :)

red, blue, black, gray and red.

Dark Gray.  Available in Green to the Model Shop.

More slopes:
-  2x1 Regular Peak Slope:  Rare in Gray, Scarce in Beige, Common in Red &
Black.  Dunno about any others


1 - Is it bad that when I first say images of the DDK, I thought, "Cool!  2x2
corner slopes!"?  ;)
