Well, there was quick mention of this at the NELUG meeting on Monday, but I
don't think too many people heard... I'm currently offering my assistance
someone who used to work for S@H-- and she's got a huge number of bricks she
wants to get rid of that she bought back when she was working for TLC... Among
the things she wants to get rid of are loose Lego bags... (they're not complete
sets, just random bags) The majority of them are from Res-Q sets and Freestyle
sets, with some Divers, Technic, and other random things here and there thrown
in as well.

Anyway, someone (It was either Todd or Suz I think) had the idea that perhaps
NELUG as a group might want to buy these pieces and have them as general use
bricks (for the inevitable brickwars game, to have something to play with at
meetings, maybe for spare parts for contributing members, etc, etc) but they'd
be NELUG's bricks... I'm not sure how much exactly we'd need to buy them (a
couple hundred, I'm guessing [I've seen them rather quickly once... a rough
bag/piece/pound count might be in order to get a better guess])... But before
we even get that far, would anyone else be interested in the idea?

(...) Ah, yes. That was me. Sorry, I just read this thread. Count me in on paying a share. I really look forward to seeing a NELUG collection and don't much mind what parts we start it with. I also have misc. extra pieces (some used) that I could (...)

Dave, I was just wondering if there was any update on this or did we miss out? Either way I would like to get a NELUG collection started and I have a few things to contribute including a few 32x32 Tan Baseplates with River pattern, Some Indian Figs, (...)
