As we all know, some sets include extra bricks which are needed during the build but which are temporary and are removed before the build is finished. Normally these bricks are a contrasting colour to make it clear they don't belong in the finished build which obviously makes sense but normally means they are bright white, red or similar. The down side is it makes them difficult to reuse in custom builds and so they just sit in my parts bin for ever.
It just struck me that a compromise would be to make them clear. These would still be noticeably different to the majority of set brick colours but it would make them useful for creating custom stands which I never seem to have enough clear bricks to do. What do you guys think?
