So TLG sell more and I buy more. We all win....

I like that idea.

But the number of different parts may be more than one bag’s worth (speculation exists that there is a maximum number of different parts that can be placed in one bag). Also there would need to be a general recalculation of the bag allocations as right now they’re scattered throughout many different bags.

But it would be neat indeed.

I’d also suggest that the instructions be genericised so that any one of a number of colors could be substituted in. This may make them a bit more confusing for the younger crowd but a recolored set is pretty clearly targeted at adults, ne? (I wonder how many kids not in AFOL households actually got the Maersk schemed set... Many less than normal percentagewise, I’d wager)
