This past weekend I received a fax from Paul Hutton at Busy Bee with a list
of all of the sets that he might (emphasis on might) be able to get.  I
asked about posting this on the net but he is a little concerned about
getting inundated with phone calls particularly with the busy Christmas
season approaching.  So I offered to survey the online community to help
prioritize what he might be able to order and he agreed.

I have captured the contents of the fax in an Excel spread (and as an
Acrobat document) and made it available on my web site.  I have tried to be
as accurate as possible but working from a fax with very small print can be
a challenge.

Anyway, if you would like to see what Busy Bee might be able to order, go
here:

If you would like to help Busy Bee prioritize the old stock they request
from LEGO, fill out the spreadsheet (either electronically or on paper) and
send it or fax it back to me.  More details are available on the above web
page.

Since I haven't received any spreadsheets in a few days I decided to tally
up the results.  You can view the results yourself by going to the web page
listed above and viewing the summary, the link is near the bottom of the
page.

Net-net, World Cup, Paradisa, and the two Trees, Fences, and Flowers (6318
and 6319) were the most requested sets.  I have faxed the summary to Busy
Bee this evening - we'll see if it helps them obtain some of these sets.

I will continue to gather input and update the summary as it trickles in.
