Lots of 2k sets at Target on Hamilton in San Jose. I went this morning and picked up the Gungan Patrol (7115) and the A-Wing Fighter (7134). Just for some fun. And now I don't want to do any work. They also had the Boba Fett Slave (7144), Desert (...) (25 years ago, 21-Dec-99, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)

Apparently as a side-effect of the rotation the FO device can toggle the pulse counter as well. It can't detect direction like (...) (25 years ago, 21-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)
