Rob and I seem to be on the same wavelength when it comes to new pieces. Lot's of
new slopes.
In addition I would like to see:
(for the 2x2 cylinder bricks) Capital tops and bottoms (Doric, Ionic, Corinthian,
Egyptian?).
Fence pieces in (half length) sizes 1x2x1 and 1x2x2.
Pointed Arches (for true gothic constructions) in different sizes.
New window styles and sizes (I'm tired of the 1x4x3 and 1x4x5), large and small.
(Remember, in the classic era (1950's-70) there were 9 different window styles!)
New roadplate type (we've had the "X", "T", straight and curved for 20 years). How
about complementing these with perhaps a "Y" or some others.
