No! No! No!

There's already too many different Lego pieces. Everytime they bring
out new pieces it just becomes harder to keep track of what's out there.

Lego should stop designing different bricks and start producing more sets
that make imaginative use of the ones we've got.

And similarly, while I like the new colours that have come out in recent years
(orange, purple, lighter green, tan, brown) I'd much rather they now
stopped bringing out new colours now and started fully using the colours we've
got.  An orange train would be great...

Hello all,
I have a list of pieces that have been bugging me for a while. Why? They don't
exist! It seems like TLG can do mondo-super-juniorized pieces that can be used
with a certain type of model, but why don't they make simple basic pieces that
would be very nice to have? These are the pieces I wish were in production:
1x2 double-ended hinge plates. There are loads of 1x6's that need some thought
in how to use, so why not 1x2's? I can think of a dozen uses for a piece such
as this.
Odd length beams. 1x1's and 1x3's don't cut it. Why not 1x5's, 1x7's, 1x9's or
even 1x11's? </rant>
What pieces do you all wish existed?

I have to agree with you there Simon! Use some of the new pieces we've already got, give us more of the better ones and give us more in the new colors besides one or two in the bigger sets.. and give us some of the new pieces in the old and new (...) (25 years ago, 15-Aug-99, to lugnet.general)
