Hello! (...) How were you supposed to know! OK, I don't know if this set was available in Canada, too. However, for Canadians it is much easier to get sets from the US than for us poor Europeans :-) (...) I don't think so. Well, we got the Yellow (...) (21 years ago, 3-Jun-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)
