Hmmm. Frank, did you notice the biggest perk in the new Spring 2001 S@H
catalog? It's not a new set - it was previously Europe-only, and oh, my...
I'm talking about 5399, the BV accesories set, with a bunch of wands, some
crowns goblet, etc, but the two best pieces are the green gem - only
available in select few sets - and the love letter, which is just too cool.
I'm waiting for a break to buy a few sets to get that one (shipping would be
horrendous otherwise) but I'll get it as soon as I can.

Hmm, interesting...

Not to mention a whole bunch of colorful transparent bricks! I can spot a
few trans green 1x1s, a yellow 1x2, dk. blue 1x1 and 1x2, (lt.?) blue 1x1,
and some pink ones, all transparent! I wonder what Brad H'll do with those.

Yeah, not to mention two of them have almost the same faces *and* same hair.
<shrug> Oh well...
Looks like some of it is good stuff, but I might wait before I get those two
sets (5833 and 5399) and I probably won't get any of the other new sets.
Maybe I'd spill some cash on the Queen's chamber or the Fairy Queen's room -
I never got a chance to get them last year.
The rest of the new sets look like too much for too little, unfortunately.
