I think it was a 1998-only set. Here in Canada (I don't know about the US) it comes with a mummy-shaped lego carrying-case. One store in town had two left yesterday when I looked. -- Paul Davidson, aka Tinman (URL) "If you strike me down, I shall (...) (26 years ago, 18-Nov-99, to lugnet.adventurers)
