A bit of side trivia...  The cardboard trays appear to be supplied by TLC to
Walgreen's sale spec. The label on the trays has a TLC style part number

If you buy in multiples of 6, they seem happy enough for you to take the tray
too, which helps when you carry them out to the car and so forth...

I did not notice the LEGO part number. Good sleuthing.
