I could not have said that better myself, Calum. The 3033 was a slightly
better deal than the 4107. But regardless, any bucket o' bricks that offers
1000 or more pieces for around $20 is good for my collection. I too use
1x1s enough that I can find use for more. Whether for the 1x1s or 2x4s or
whatever, these tub sets provide a nice "booster shot" to supplement an
existing inventory, or to give a new builder a nice foundation to start a
collection with.
If anyone really doesn't want the pieces in their 4107s, I would be happy to
give them a caring home free of charge... :)

| (...) Where else are you going to find 1000 pieces (regardless of shape or size) for $19.97 Canadian? Sure the distribution isn't ideal, but it's still a deal for most people. Plus, most of the purchasers of 4107 are normal families who will see it (...) (22 years ago, 18-Dec-02, to lugnet.general)
