Is this box of pieces random?
And even if isn't this is one sweet tub for unique pieces and colors
Must go to store and buy four of them!

I recently bought 5 of the 4679 tubs with bonus 500 pieces and I found that the bonus 500 pieces are not a random assortment, but actual choices by Lego, so I have a multiple of 5 of everything on your list.

A lot of interesting colors, but also a lot of really bad colors. (Did you know Lego has multiple shades of pink? Barely lightest pink, light pink, pink, dark pink, rosy pink, then it moves onto the shades of purple, etc)

Too bad, about not being random.
I knew they had many shade versions of purple, like from the Knight Bus set. So I think Lego probably made mistakes on other colors too.
I don't have many pink pieces except some fences and chairs from Paradisa sets, so I didn't no about the many shades of pink.
I know the set comes with bad colors too, but I only brought up the interesting pieces and colors that I thought looked rare and uncommon.

I was hoping this set be more like the other set #4679. This version seems to be random based on the reviews.
