Could be because it is just off of the golden mean: 3:2

   6x12 would match the old ones better but I’d be more inclined to 6x14 or 6x16. 6x10 just looks nothing like a real container (half or full).

Speaking of the containers-- is that a new element on them; a 1x5x6 thin wall-type thing?

Welll yes and no. Indeed it’s a new element from Lego however megablox has had that element for a while. In the megajunk version they used it as a translucent window. This new “now Lego” element opens doors too much lighter models especially for 8wide builders. my mind is spinning ohh the possibilities.

Too cool, Ondrew
