Ordinarily, I don't believe in "me-too" posts. However, since it is feasible
that TLG is using the content of this newsgroup to plan Lego Direct's output, I
will add my two cents.
I agree with James Trobaugh. If we can order the standard blue-tub brick
selection in new colors, I will be standing in line for light gray, dark gray,
tan, and brown bricks. Maybe I would also buy some teal, purple, and orange.
