Hee hee... Well, look at the types of packs that were being sold --
brightly colored roof bricks and rectangular bricks and small plates and
trees and windows, among other things. Great stuff, I don't mean to insult
it, but it's no where near as juicy as, say, packs of gray 1xN or 2xN
bricks, or packs of large gray, white, or black plates. Then again, maybe
the primary target audience doesn't care much for gray, white, and black.
