I too am happy about the Legends series. It is great that LD is making so many people
happy.
But I still want expanded Bulk Orders. Some clear bricks and 2x2 windows (blue,
yellow) would be nice, as well as some macaroni bricks in many colors. Ditto for the
2x2 round bricks.
My favorite candidates for Legends are 396 (Thatcher Perkins) and 384/760 (London
Bus). The Thatcher Perkins probably won't be made (spoked wheels and rod/piston set),
but the London Bus, which has 24 town windows, would be an awesome addition. That
would however get back to the question of whether the classic window molds (1x4x2,
1x3x2 and 1x1x1) are sill available.
Thanks LD,
Gary Istok
