(...) Wow. Compared to the US version of 4679+bonus, that is a much more logical set. More like the 4400 "spumoni ice cream" tub two years ago. The US 4679 bonus was a wild mix typically including unpaired skew bricks. -Erik (19 years ago, 13-Sep-05, to lugnet.market.shopping)

A couple of pertinent questions: 1. Did the side of the box it came in have any imprinted or indented markings that resembled a 4-digit number? 2. Was there a lot of stock of this bucket, or were shelves relatively empty? 3. In the first run of the (...) (19 years ago, 12-Sep-05, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) Neat! Very helpful, thanks for doing that. I love the spring cleaning concept, but I'm probably not going to shell out 50% more than for last year's tub and have to eat all those new color pieces.

Well, the good news is that Walgreens has the $6 boxes of Lego (3/$12), the bad news is that they are only 300 pieces this year, and only 1x and 2x bricks. Box set # 4781.
