Umm, I think you'll find that it was a very good seller. Almost all of the
sets, (and this goes double for the orignal Aquanauts and the larger sets)
rate 65 or more on the LugnetDB. In my experience, I never saw a leftover
set from that seires sitting on the shelves, unlike other sets from those
years (*cough* Wild West *cough*)

I wonder why they delayed three of the HP sets for next year, I mean, three
sets? why bother?. AlphTeam is underwater because it's futuristicly
sciencefictiony without being Spacey. Even though theres no agreement with
Lucasarts about producing (or not producing) spacecraft while holding the SW
licence, they won't undercut their own sales by producing a competing space
theme. However they will go close (Life on Mars, Alpha Team) and try to
capture more sales by catering to those don't like SW.

time)
P.S. Keith, You really ought sort out the problem you're having with your
messages not threading properly. Send an Email to Suz, it should be easy
enough to fix up.
