Hi All,
I was wondering if anybody else finds working with BURPs to be frustrating

You know, all that frustration would be avoided if LEGO just made bulk dark
gray bricks like they should...LEGO made those BURPS to make their life easier,
not ours!  I know how you feel, Tom.  Every mountain I've built ends up with a
lot of bulk brick to bring it into proper shape anyway.

Hi Ed,
  Yeh, I've been wondering if I don't use as many bricks trying to unite the
BURPs into a decent looking model as I would if I just used bricks alone.
I'm basing that on the idea of using other colors for the filling and dark
gray for the outside only.  It almost seems like it would work out better
that way and be a lot less frustrating!  I'm also using Duplo to support the
inside as another way of saving my regular bricks!  It helps!
