Hi,
I have a Freestyle bucket that does not appear to be in the set database.
It may be a Canadian version of the 3027 bucket.

Mine is numbered 3670, and has 410 pcs.  The bucket is purple and says
"Special Anniversary edition" or "Limited Anniversary Edition" on it
(can't remember exactly).  I believe 3027 has 411 pcs and includes a
sivler brick. Mine has no silver brick.

Excellent.
Is the year on the bucket 1998?
are there any minifigs in the bucket?
You wouldn't have a picture would you?

I've taken a closer look to get the details:
The year is 1998.  It says a "35th Anniversary" on a badge printed on the
front, next to a banner that says "Limited Edition."
It has two minifigs: One is a smiley, white torso with a fat vertical red
stripe bordered by thin blue stripes, and blue arms.  The other has a
"Timmy" head, white torso with "Freestyle" on the front, and red arms.
There are black and blue legs.
I'm afraid I have no picture.  I don't even own a camera.

I'll crosspost this to loc.ca to see if anyone else in Canada has this
bucket.

wow! thanks so much for your help. that's plenty of info to start a record in
the database. I'll do it right now.  :-)

I've never seen this bucket, but I have seen the other 3 "limited Edition 35
yr anniversary" buckets & tubs.  All are (IIRC) 1998, in purple containers
rather than the more common red or blue, and Canada-only.

There is a larger Freestyle tub w/ 835 pieces, a 600 piece bucket and a 1200
piece tub.  These last two, I *think* have the same make-up as the more
recent 600/1200 bucket/tub, but never actually checked.

I am using the 835 freestyle tub for storage, and I *think* one of the 1200
piece tubs is doing the same duty, but I'm not certain.  I'll post more
accurate information (and pictures of what I've got) in a couple weeks,
after I've recovered from Supertrain.

I can confirm that:
3759 is a 1200 piece tub with the exact same piece/colors that the 3033
3758 600 piece bucket with half of 3759
3761 835 piece tub with 2 minifigs
3760 410 piece bucket with 2 minifig

all mark "35 years of building imaginations limited edition"

No silver brick :-(

retail price in Can$
3758  9.99
3759 19.99
3760  9.99
3761 19.99
