That would be neat for all the MOC makers but Yeah LEGO thinks about kids with figs in it. :(

It could always be a Shop-at-Home thing, not taking up valuable shelf space, but I'd love it.

I think the way to go now though is to add those pieces to the Pick-a-Brick feature. I would probably order at least $100 worth of black and grey (any grey) pieces in the near-term, and more in the future.

So long as the new sets have all sorts of cool designs and/or cool fantasy minifigs, the Pick-a-Brick will be in addition to other purchases.

I think we'd all love to see it, and it would sell very quickly among AFOL's. But grey is a fairly drab and uninteresting colour when it comes to what kids like.

This thread popped up again? Well, I'll add my two cents!!

Need more of these:
http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemIn. ... ID=86&in=S

Light Bley 1x1 slopes. Only one set has it and its from star wars. How am I going to do fine detail work without such a useful piece???! Cruelty.

Like to see this panel in Light Bley (though they do have these http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemIn. ... ID=86&in=S ):
http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=4215a

Several bags of 1x2 brick in sand blue, medium blue, sand red, dark tan. sand green.

Dark orange and dark green 1x2 and 1x4 wood bricks.

Grill bricks ( http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemPic.asp?P=2877 ) in sand green, dark red, dark tan.

1x1, 1x2, and 1x6 tiles in light bley and dark tan.

That's all that comes to mind at the moment. :)

I've never seen this pic before... what an evil thing to make and tease us all with! And with one of the first factions, too. :)

I'd love to see this sort of product, but I guess it will surely never happen. However, as was mentioned, Bricklink saves the day with this need... and perhaps better so, as we can choose exactly what we want to spend our money on for this "bucket" of pieces.

I'm a kid and I have to disagree with you :wink: ! But it would be :D A-M-A-Z-I-N-G :D
See! There we have it Lego... it's official: Kids want a Creator Lego Castle or a Bucket chock full of Lego castle parts!

I'm a kid too!!! Well, at least at heart, but that counts, right?!!

If LEGO is so concerned about kids not wanting a set without minifigs... maybe they should just make a Castle Bucket of .... Castle Minifigs! :D

Heh heh heh... I think I would collapse in the toy aisle out of shock and happiness (assuming the price wasn't something like 2,000USD!)
