You might remember that at the end of last year LEGO asked LEGO User Groups to survey their communities in regards to what their members would like to see at the Pick-A-Brick Wall at official LEGO stores (see: What Would You Like on the LEGO PAB Wall?). The data was collected from all the participating LEGO fan communities by mid-January, and by the end of the month the results were ready to be shared. 🙂
Please note that what will be included in the Fan Favorite section of the PAB Wall throughout 2017 has been selected already, based on sales performance data and previous feedback by LEGO fans. The results of this most recent survey will be taken into consideration for the 2018 selection of the PAB Wall. Also, remember that the Fan Favorite section is only relevant to North American stores at this point. There are plans to roll out the program across Europe and Asia as well, but there is no precise timeframe for this currently.
The original survey included six questions (see previous post linked above) related to the PAB Wall. Four of them solicited feedback and suggestions about LEGO brand stores and the PAB Wall in general, and two questions specifically asked which colors and elements LEGO fans would like to see at the PAB Wall in the future. Based on the survey responses from participating LEGO fan communities (including ours), here are the top results (see larger version of official LEGO color chart here and the BrickLink color chart here):
➡ TOP TEN COLORS REQUESTED FOR PAB WALL:
- #154 – New Dark Red (dark-red on BrickLink)
- #141 – Earth Green (dark-green on BrickLink)
- #151 – Sand Green
- #140 – Earth Blue (dark-blue on BrickLink)
- #194 – Medium Stone Gray (light-bluish-gray on BrickLink)
- #138 – Sand Yellow (dark-tan on BrickLink)
- #199 – Dark Stone Gray (dark-bluish-gray on BrickLink)
- #38 – Dark Orange
- #308 – Dark Brown
- #135 – Sand Blue
➡ TOP TEN ELEMENTS REQUESTED FOR PAB WALL:
- #98283 – Profile Brick 1×2 Single Gro. (masonry bricks)
- #3004 – Brick 1×2 (standard 1×2 bricks)
- #2423 – Limb Element, Small (small plant leaves)
- #3024 – Plate 1×1 (standard 1×1 plate)
- #3023 Plate 1×2 (standard 1×2 plate)
- #3069 – Flat Tile 1×2 (standard 1×2 tile)

- #2417 – Limb Element (large plant leaves)

As I mentioned above, the feedback from the survey will be used for choosing the colors and elements in the 2018 selection of the PAB Wall. Hopefully, LEGO will be able to fulfill at least some of the requests, if not all. And I also hope that they will run similar surveys in the future to gauge what LEGO fans would like to see at the PAB Wall.
What do you think? How do you like the results of the survey? Does it match your own favorites? Are these the colors and elements you would like to see at the PAB Wall? Or would you prefer something else? Feel free to share your thoughts and discuss in the comment section below! 😉
