(...) get any usable amounts of the single parts. And that would give you more 2 x 2 bricks then you'll need in a lifetime (OK, so that is obviously not true). Thanks for the link Martin! (21 years ago, 5-Nov-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.loc.se)

I was thinking the same thing. 13 white cones? What the? And so many singletom pieces (including 1x1 aqua bricks, and 3x3 corner slope blue). Truly bizarre... it almost looks like a dumping ground for leftover pieces. I could see myself buying a (...) (21 years ago, 5-Nov-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.loc.se)

(...) Fascinating theory. I'll go one further (while we're speculating).. watch the inventory! It may change. If this truly is a way to get rid of surplus, I could see the "extra" pieces changing. They're not printed on the bin unlike the first 400 (...) (21 years ago, 5-Nov-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.loc.se)

Duplo always had way too many of these and looking thru the parts inventory for the tubs i see it still (2x2's hugely (...)

I'd rather have "too many" 2x2s than too many 1x1s. 2x2s are very useful (and easier to sell in the colors you don't need). The ton of grey 2x2s is a Castle lovers dream, I'm sure (I don't need them from my 20 tubs, so I'm selling all 1120 of them, (...)
