What a top set that would be Duq. But how about 8850 truck and 8862 JCB.
Perhaps each limited edition issue could be a collection of types of model.
Set no 1 could include the parts for all of the super size cars, Set 2 for
all of the planes, set three for all of the forklift vehicles and on and on.
Obviously we would all go out and buy enough sets to build all of the models
at once.
As for plastic, well it is in a way a sustainable material, yes it takes
some energy to make and then again it does not degrade, but looked after
well (ie. don't tie it to the back of your grifter), it lasts forever! I
think Greenpeace actually love Lego. How about a Lego Greenpeace Ship?
All the best

| (...) Perhaps a more manageable idea (less pieces per bag) would be to organise by colour so: black - 8880, 8860, 8868, 8412 red - 851, 853, 8440, 8837, 8851, 8865 yellow - 850, 852, 856, 8459, 8460, 8828, 8862, 8853 Put me down for one of each - no (...)
