Here are my five choices: > > 1-piece palm tree > Rock Raiders chassis > 2x2x11 super-tall column > Moo Men heads (at least get rid of the grey eyes!) > CastleJr half-tower piece These are all decent selections but I do have a few I would get rid of first. 1x2x2 Brick (This has to be my biggest pet peeve piece just give us 2 1x2's!) 2x2x3 Brick 1x2x5 Brick 1x1x5 Brick And just about any other POOP. Note: As for the CastleJr half-tower piece. It is awful yes and I could do without it but it can be put to good use in places. Just check out my Inn. http://www.nelug.org/members/kingsley/castle/inn/ Granted this is the only MOC that I have seen using the piece but I just set my mind to putting the part to use in a MOC and this is what came out of it so I am pretty happy. My biggest pet peeve parts are those that can easily be made out of other basic parts. Especially those that can be built out of basic bricks. The new CastleJr half-tower does not fall into that catagory so there are a lot of other parts I would like see gone before it.
