I'm not exactly sure if this is something that has ever been asked but, has
LEGO ever considered a recycling program for older used bricks... While the
business side of something like this isn't totally profitable it could at least
reuse resources that already exist.
I know I find myself nearly devastated when I have to throw away lbs of them
when I'd rather find a way for LEGO to reuse or find a way to offer a small
exchange. I can see that it would nearly be impossible for something like this
to just happen.
It would be cool though to send in a few pounds of sorted color bricks and
maybe get a handful of new standard bricks in return...
Just something I was thinking about as I sort through some of my older stuff
and figure out if I want to keep them of chuck them in the garbage.
Thanks,
Wayne
