Hi All
I was just wondering had anyone ever counted the pieces in any of the
"Bucket" sets.
I was just on the phone tonight to a private seller in Brisbane and she told
me she just purchased a "Blue Tub" to finish off some kits for sale and she
counted all the pieces and only got 1188 pieces.
I know I have purchased 2 over the last couple of months and have not even
bothered to count.
I would like to think this is an isolated case?
Any comments from Lego Reps would be appreciated.

| (...) I definitely got 1200 pieces in the tub I counted (URL) that I incorrectly state a grand total of 2000 - just brain fade I assure you!) ROSCO (22 years ago, 10-Nov-02, to lugnet.loc.au)
