Thanks bunches! This is wonderful news. :-) [Particular thanks for making
the Cypress trees affordable as well as plentiful.]
I am curious... how long ago was this decision made to offer these
particular bulk packs? Or if this is not a question you feel comfortable
answering, maybe you might just give some general information on the time
involved from when you decide this is something you wish Lego Direct to
offer to when you announce it will be. Also, do you use some sort of
marketing research "formula" to decide what to make available next or is it
gut instinct influenced to some degree by the squawking here at Lugnet?
once again, thank you!
I am really looking forward to seeing what Lego Direct comes up with next.
It just seems to get better and better...
