Well, I can't say I've *bought* anything in that condition, but in my 20
years of Lego collecting, I have *thrice* found bricks with insect-egg-sacks
in them amongst my non-airtight Lego boxes. All hatched before I found them.
Made me wish I felt comfortable boiling my bricks, but instead I just washed
them. THOROUGHLY. [shiver]
