    Anyone see the Pyrates sets at retail yet? —Dave Schuler
   I've done a brief but fairly thorough scan of the northern Pittsburgh, PA area to no avail. It was my impression that the smaller sets were to debut some time in May, and I just don't feel like waiting, darn it. Dave! (19 years ago, 24-May-05, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)
