All,
Richard and I (mostly Richard, thanks Richard!) have been working on a new
survey tool to get a better handle on the AFOL part desires. We have been
working on a super top secret project – we’ll call it Project X - for many
months now, and it’s just about ready for our pilot launch. But as part of
this project, we would like to have your feedback on what parts you would
most like to see in bulk form. I wish I could tell you more, but trust me,
you’ll love the outcome. Don’t forget that because you don’t hear anything
from us in a while, doesn’t mean we aren’t working on terrific stuff!
The hope of this project is to be able to quickly and clearly generate a Top
20 list of what specific parts in what specific colors the AFOL community as
a whole would like to see us produce.
I can’t promise that we’ll be able to pull off every part request, but we
will be listening and factoring your opinions into Project X.
You can fill out the survey (just once per AFOL!) at:
http://www.pabtrak.com/survey/
The Bulk Bricks survey allows you to choose up to 20 items each with up to 10
colors. You can only take the survey once per AFOL, so choose wisely! (But
don’t worry…Richard’s super duper “Parts Shopping Cart” allows you to change
and modify your selection for days)
Please note that we have included only the current color selection in this
survey. Richard has been kind enough to agree to a second version of the
survey that is based only on the new and old colors so that we can put a bit
more quantitative data to that discussion about what parts should/could be
“locked”.
Richard has also been kind enough to open up a special forum on BrikTrak to
report bugs (only bug reporting, please). You can find it here:
http://www.briktrak.com/forums/display_forum_topics.asp?ForumID=29
Again, sorry I can’t reveal more than this, but sometimes that’s just how it
works. I figured it’s better to get you involved earlier in the process even
if I can’t share the details with you!

Hi Jake and everyone,
Thanks Jake and Richard for this survey. I cannot wait to find out the results.
I have not seen anyone request bulk pack of the
30401px1, Baseplate, Road
16 x 32 Ramp, Straight. And it is not in the survey. I think it would be a
very desireable part as I have not been able to find any on eBay or BrickLink
for a long time. It was only available in one expensive set (6600) and there
was only one per set. It is a very useful part for virtually any town project.
I would very much like to buy quite a few of these parts. (This is my first
post after lurking for four years, so please don’t make me beg! ;-) )
Thanks for listening.
Steve

| (...) The straight piece and its curved counterpart look quite useful and could make good bridges. When I saw the set I was put off both by the price and by the two inclined ramps, which are too steep for realistic town scenery and make up a large (...)
