But what if I don't want or need pumps and blue tanks this month? And how
many months will I wait till my favourite parts are featured? Why not if all
people in this group go and think of what they want and make a wish list?
For instance, I can make a list of at least 2000 part pieces I would want of
about 150-200 different types, like worm gears, I have only two. I don't
really need wheels and why would I diff boxes? I have 7 already.
Any way, each make a list, and someone makes a final list of everyone's
list, and submit that? Maybe our group ends up buying 100 000 or more
pieces. Or else, these new packs look quite cool maybe we will have to buy
that and swop around.

All this is a very good idea! Yesterday I wanted to stock up on all single
pumps and pistons that I knew a store in the city had on stock, well, had
is the key word... :(

Another small bit: They would not have to spend much on package design and
printing, I´m sure any plain carton box would be ok with us!
