How about in order to keep the box from going to blue 1x1's, people have to put
in what they take out, like if they take out a purple 1x19 plate, they have to
put in another type of plate, and if they take a Timmy, they have to put in
another minifig, or a 1x1 finned Space engine, another engine piece must go in,
etc..

I think that might defeat the purpose of the box.  I might have space engine pieces
i don't want, and getting space engine pieces back out of the box wouldn't help if
I wanted plates.  Maybe a more general rule like just try to keep a good fun mix
going would be appropriate.
