Many people have chimed in that they are wishing for 1x bricks in bulk.
I am starting a new thread because I had been wishing for 1x orange
bricks in bulk and now you have given us the halloween packet.  While I
am greatly pleased that orange is available in bulk, I was a little
bummed because all of the orange bricks are *2*x.

My point is that I believe most builders want 1x bricks for building
their MOCs.  Except for builders such as Eric who builds large dinos and
desks and such (beautifully, I might add), I suspect the rest of use
would find more uses for the 1x bricks (which are more suited for
minifig scale).

I suspect, however, they many will be unhappy until all of the following
colors are offered in all of the following sizes in bulk (except clear
in limited sizes).

Colors: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Lite Blue, White, Clear,
Black, Brown, Tan, Gray, Dark gray,

Plates: 1x1, 1x2, 1x3, 1x4, 1x6, 1x8, 1x12, 2x2, 2x3, 2x4, 2x6, 2x8,
2x12, 2x16, 4x4, 4x6, 4x8, 4x12, 6x6, 6x8, 6x12, 6x14, 6x14, 6x16

Bricks: 1x1, 1x2, 1x3, 1x4, 1x6, 1x8, 1x12, 1x16, 2x2, 2x3, 2x4, 2x6,
2x8, 2x10, 2x12

Tiles: 1x1, 1x2, 1x4, 1x6, 1x8, 2x2


That's a little over 540 different elements, but that's a good start;-)

(...) right, I might add that Lego should offer those brown boxes to Eric, not the x100 packs, he would go too fast through these (remember Mike Poindexter went through 713 of the 3033 1200 pieces boxes to this day, according to (URL) ) (24 years ago, 23-Oct-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)

Dear LEGO, At the very least, 1x2's in white would be extremely appropriate for us modernist architects who are also fans of your fine product. Build On! John Matthews John Neal <johnneal@uswest.net> wrote in message (...) (24 years ago, 23-Oct-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) Lets do a little selective reduction: The following are not _AS_ needed Blue Red Black White Green Yellow 1x1,1x2,1x3,1x4,1x8,...x3,2x4,2x6 Because they are available in the 3033 buckets. We would be better served for bricks like that in true (...) (24 years ago, 23-Oct-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) You forgot Teal and Imperial Violet (The purple from the Grimace McDonald's Happy Meal set.) I suspect some people will want that horrid cyber slam purple too. Imperial Violet on the other hand is my holy grail of lego colors. I bought over 40 (...) (24 years ago, 26-Oct-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)
