I hope that someone at LEGO is listening.  There's nothing wrong with the
tub inside (the brick selection is a great value

Actually, I disagree. Out of the 1000 pieces in this tub, more than 300 are

(...) Actually, I think I agree with Alan on this one. There are those who wanted bulk packs of 1x1 and 1x2 bricks from Shop @ Home. You can get the 1x4, 1x6, and 1x8 from there. This is a good way to stock up with the smaller sized bricks without (...) (22 years ago, 22-Nov-02, to lugnet.general)

(...) <SNIP> As you see, Lego does make 1x1 bricks, so why aren't they available through Shop At Home (Bulk Bricks) ?????? Regards, Ludo (22 years ago, 22-Nov-02, to lugnet.general)

  Color problems with label on 4107 tub
 
Has anyone else noticed this problem? Last night I purchased two 4107 assorted Creator tubs. The label on the side of the tub shows a breakdown of what quantity of each part you're getting and in what color. Now, if you're standing in line at the (...)
