| (...) I don't think so, and here's why: doing one part in different colors is (probably) treated as a different production run for each color. And it's doubtful that LD will want to stock an entire production run of a single part in a single color. (...) (25 years ago, 29-Feb-00, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.general)
