Nice idea, but not for me. I'd prefer 70% bricks/ 30% plates and keep the
rest. If I need greeblies (same as widgets I guess?) or slopes I'll buy the
normal bulk packs.

Anyone else want to join in this little fantasy design session?

I thought it would be really cool to have a bucket of bricks, plates, • slopes, &
greeblies & maybe a fig or 2 ALL in one color (except the fig(s) ), just • to see

own collection, OR (even better) if Lego made the SAME selection of pieces • in
EVERY color! (white bucket, blue bucket, trans-orange bucket, etc.)  My
'spread' would be:
40% basic bricks
20% slopes
wedges (sloped on side OTHER than stud/socket)
20% plates
10% wings
10% greeblies
