[Peppermint_M]

Different Control Panels/Computer slopes

More Minifig Parts

More variety in Dark Blue/Dark Red/Dark Green parts,+ other rare colours.

More colours for Jewels

More Plant variety.

More Animals

Otherwise its ok.

[HumanPackMule]

More castle themed pieces and those pieces like this

[SpiderSpaceman]

Better range of the small modified plates, at least all the classics. Meaning the 1x1's and 1x2's with the hinges, bars, clips. And these babies for sure:

if this is miraculously still in production:

more arches (including the halves)

2 classic snot brackets: the one with the vertical 1x4, and the originql

this has interested me

http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=61068

The minifig tool wheel, aquazone knives, and the wrench/driver piece (bl # 4006), the blocky space guns and the chainsaw body. Ooh, and new telescope.

fedoras, batman guns, orange clam, Indy military uniforms, tan flat top hair, dwarf beards, leather jacket torso, pirate bandana.

Anything Pete Reid has ever used.

Not PAB, but LDD requests:

bring back the imaginary colors mode from LDD 3

fix stud-Technic hole connection

add crazy tubing sim.

again, I feel terrible about this mess of a post, but mytime on this computer has run out, and I'll never reproduce this list from memory.

[I Scream Clone]

Since Lego goes to the trouble of producing rarer colours for sets, they could simply increase production to supply PAB walls as well. If you are making twice as many parts in one production run the costs work out less and we can get rarer colours in useful quantites like; Dark blue, Tan, Dark Tan, Sand green, Sand red etc.

I would like to see more roofing slopes in colours like dark blue, grey and dark grey etc.

30% bricks

20% plates

15% plants etc

15% minifig

20% others

[the enigma that is badger]

50% more minifig parts (body parts and headwear)

50% more minifig accessories for the upper and lower part

Bricks? What are these "bricks" of which you speak?

[robuko]

Thanks to TLC for asking us. I would be interested in what are the good sellers now. It would be great if they could use old moulds for PAB parts and have non-production pieces available only on PAB, which would make PAB a real alternative to bricklink. I guess PAB is a warehouse full of small-lot production runs, so they could experiment with batch production of a few high-demand old pieces like classic space parts and see how they sell. I guess this is a commercial decision ultimately - my observation is that the really high brick-count MOCs tend to be castle or space themed, so commercially I would look to please the builders who would buy in bulk and give the big revenue sources.

for me, I would love to see-

Fleshie heads and hands

more roof slopes in different colours. 2x2x3 inside corner bricks -I wish

more doors and windows/cockpits - please trans yellow cockpits!

some specialist pieces from current ranges - barbed wire, laptop, telescope

more arches

more plants

For colours, more brown, silver, old grey, sand green, dark green, dark blue

If there is some physical limit on the number of stock items they carry, I would recommend to cut back on primary colour bricks and plates as they are quite easily available.

[ILikePi]

I would like to see more minifig parts and minifig accessories (like food and stuff) and more rare colors of existing pieces (like dark blue).

[Luke McAwesome]

Certainly the first priority is minifigures.

I'd also like to see more wheels and such in PaB.

[schlangus]

Mostly, I would like to see more Castle-themed minifig torsos, helms, and child/dwarf legs in other colors besides brown.

I would also like to gripe about the pricing which is too high. 0.35USD for a 1x2 brick is ridiculous.

[Slydog009]

I really want to see more minifigure parts(especially ones from sets like star wars and space police themed) Everything else is ok, but lower prices would be good in these economic times!

[Hinckley]

More windows in more colors please! At least 20% windows. And more basic mini-fig parts. Like plain white torsos!

[Darth_Legois]

40% More minifig parts, Also some in flesh too would be great!

30% Lots of diffrent parts in colours such as Dark Blue, Dark Red, Dark Green, Dark Tan & other new colours.

10% More "special" peices (like someone else said barbed wire, laptop, telescope ect..)

20% More windows/shutters/doors in diffrent colours

[jonwil]

What I want to see:

More civilian minifigs (torsos, hair, heads, legs)

More minifig accessories (hats, helmets, other headgear, tools, handcuffs, weapons, footwear, neck/back wear etc)

More doors and windows and windscreens (put the trans-black windscreen and door from the City Corner bus on PaB and I am SO there)

More printed parts (i.e. control panels, TV screens, computers, money, clocks, dials, gauges, flags, radar screens, telephones etc)

Base plates (roadways, 8 x 16, 16 x 16, 16 x 32, 32 x 32, 48 x 48)

Child/dwarf legs in more colors

Roller door parts

[Whittleberry]

- More Minifig parts (licensed parts, such as Admiral Ackbar's head, would sell like hotcakes)

- More Minifig accessories

- More minifig Food

- More printed parts

also, include more pieces which are relatively rare, yet in high demand (aka printed pieces, agents barbed wire, pieces which can only be found in a few sets)

Edited July 18, 2009 by Whittleberry

[jonwil]

I wouldn't expect to see any licensed parts on PAB (starwars etc). I expect the Mr Krabs torso is there because its not considered a "licensed part" (in the same way the fedora is not a "licensed part")

Also, something else I want to see on the site is caterpillar tracks like on the new crane and new bulldozer (oh and it would be good to have BOTH sizes of sprocket please)

[iminifig]

More female, minifigs parts, not just 2 types of hair.

My daughter loves Lego, but says they only make it for boys, because she can not get female figures (heads, dresses, etc.) when we go pick-a-bricking.

[L-space]

First thanks for asking.

Then my suggestions:

more minifig accessories

more special parts

rare colours of all bricks

printed bricks

The option the write in on a certain brick, when they reach the limit it will be produced.

Maybe throw in a theme month: Castle, Star Wars, Pirates.

And it has been said before; take a look at the pricing please. Sometimes your better of buying a set you don't want for a few pieces compared to the cost of a PaB-order.

[jimmyhoppityhop]

spare clone helms!!!!!!

more grey bricks

and better guns!

[huck to flat]

Okay, While I think the existing PAB is ok, it can improve.

I honestly think that, after reading other post's, What we want is:

Fleshie minifigure parts and a wider range of minifigure parts and accesories.

Updated list of peices, as well as peices in colours witch for some weird reason they don't stock..

Greater range of parts

Greater range of colours

Almost everything being purchaseable off P.A.B

Yeh..

Hi all,

Thank you for your interest in the subject but I think some of you got this wrong. It is not practically possible to tell TLG which parts in particular you'd like to see. I mean those parts you have listed includes pretty much every single part. TLG wants to know what categories you'd be interested. Bricks, plates, figure parts, train parts, castle parts, plants, tiles, windows/doors, wheels etc... It will help us more if just list main categories. There is no way for us to sum up individual pieces, it's an endless list and I don't think TLG would have the time to study all of those :) Thanks..

[LittleBuilder]

Sticker, like bullets hole and SP , I know they aren't piece but they're LEGO too!

[andy0002]

horses!

mideval helmets like this one--->

more animals

raised base plates

[Ak-47]

Dark and light gray 1x2 and 1x3 slopes, and also dark and light gray cheese slopes. Also maybe set the prices down a tad, I'm not asking for half price, but 1 or 2 cents makes a difference.

[SpiderSpaceman]

so sorry, ambassadors . My little picks were meant to be examples, oft neglected pieces from categories that need expanding. I'll run this thru one more time and see if it's the kind of input you need, most needed catagories in bold.

fuller specialty (clip, bar, hinge, offset) 1xN plate and brick selection.

blocky guns, minifig tools.

"Tiny Turbo" elements (slope, windshield, fender, etc)

more structural elements, brackets

fuller arch selection.

more single piece animals.

fun selection of minifig head and neck gear

army minifig parts

When you say it this way...

More minifigure parts like heads and torsos hairs and hats for civilists and no stupid police and firemen. I gues everybody already has like 10 of each.

More minifigure accesoirs like food and laptop/TV.
