I took pics of his hands, and ranted to the workers there that I needed 6005 in
yellow to build my yellow Fury. NOT ONE mentioned that TLG was going to sell it!!!
I plan on buying the set as soon as it is available, then rebuilding it as a giant
racecar driver for my race layout - that means I can make the hands black (or red, or
blue), and "steal" the yellow 6005s ;-)
