FWIW, my first order resulted in:
  1 Black => 1 bag of 90 Black
  1 DGray => 1 bag of 90 DGray
  1 MGray => 1 bag of 90 MGray
  1932 LGray => 22 bags of 90 LGray
  1 White => 1 bag of 90 White

I want to order exactly what you ordered if it is indeed the *new* gray, and
they (TLC) don't tweek your image.

Me too. Jon, would you be willing to share your image file with the lazy
once you know what it actually results in your getting?

I'll certainly let everyone know what arrives.
And test the intent of the "agreement"

My "image file" was simply taking the LEGO 'brick' picture and using their
tools:
1) zooming into blow up a section that was entirely 1 color
2) adjusting contrast and gamma until it was entirely Light Gray
3) adding 4 new "pixels" with the painter, that were separated by 1 pixel
gaps, each being a different color.

I'm really wondering what their cycle time will be on this new product.
It's a customized product (slightly, but significantly non-standard).
How they can perform on this activity - order fulfillment etc. will be a BIG
indicator of how they might perform on customized orders in the future....

Also, this is their first product with a non-standard Bill-of Material.
I hate to think of the potential headaches that this is causing their MRP
system.  They probably won't answer that though.

The next step would be to shrink the customized lot size.

(...) I don't think this will be any more difficult than any other S@H order with a variety of items. My guess is that you'll find that each bag has a "set" number on it, and you'll see those set numbers on your invoice. Then the only custom thing (...)
