I agree 100% with Mark. C'mon TLC, throw us a bone on this one. Give us back the greys and keep the basic colors alive! Replacing colors on us is a huge mistake. -- Hop-Frog (22 years ago, 18-Nov-03, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.general, FTX)

(...) Not me! I'd go nutz counting that many plates(or blocks)! But as Chris suggested, the smaller the part the better deal the volume theory becomes. I have a cup full of 1x4 plates that is heavier than a cup of 2x4's. I also have cup almost full (...) (22 years ago, 18-Nov-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) After going though my buttloads of light grey I recognize my "very old" light grey (the "engine oil" shown) from my "current" ones bought in new condition (SAH, BL, sets) the last decade or so. That light grey plate ("new" version) looks much (...) (22 years ago, 18-Nov-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) Chris Yes it is, it works out to about $0.14 per 2x4, same as S@H. Weight does work better and better then S@H retail, the smaller the piece is. If someone can tell me how many 1x1 plates fit in the small and large cups, I would like to (...) (22 years ago, 18-Nov-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping)
