Very cool, I didn't know they had particular box for stocking the play tables.
That would be a cool thing for LEGO Direct to sell, you'd never really know
what you're going to get. That would kind of add to the excitement, then you
could trade off what parts you get you don't need (or want). Maybe a way for
LEGO Direct to unload mixed matched or poor selling parts. Kind of like the

ps. Frank sometime us GA AFOLs need to meet up with you NC folks, but thats a
topic for another news group.
