(...) It will probably never be tiles. How could you easily remove a misplaced tile in middle of the picture - sure it would look better, but switch to tiles and you are seriously looking at a niche adult market. Tiles should be a bulk product. -Jon (24 years ago, 8-Nov-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) Didn't LEGO say it wants to be the company we want it to be? :-) If we want the mosaics to use tiles and we can convince them that we'll buy more if it is tiles, maybe they'll offer it in tiles as an alternative option. (...) Much, much easier (...) (24 years ago, 8-Nov-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) One of my thoughts is that the 90 piece bags will actually be bulk packs. I won't be surprised to see them appear as such in the catalog. Frank (24 years ago, 8-Nov-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) Hey Jake, Congratulations! I'm always happy when AFOLs get employed by TLC. Any idea if TLC will reintroduce any of the classic windows (besides the 1x2x2 that they're selling right now in white)? It is very difficult for AFOL's to build a (...) (24 years ago, 9-Nov-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)

*Retraction* I did see the mosaic at the Kidvention, but must have been dazed because the new color *is* lighter than light gray. I couldn't believe that I had remembered something so significant so wrong, so I called Consumer Affairs and asked to (...) (24 years ago, 14-Nov-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) But still, the 1x1 plates can be twisted, making them come off pretty easily. Now, a 2x4 plate, say, on the middle of a large plate, that is difficult to take off.
