Hi all,

Sorry for dragging this a little off topic...

The KB ToyWorks is in Piscataway/Edison, off Rt 287 at Stelton Road, go south a
little ways, look for the Kohl's they're building on the left, and it's in that
plaza.  I found three Android Bases there not too long ago, and made a couple of
people very happy.  :)

The Wal-Mart was just down Centennial Av from the KB ToyWorks--but they've changed
toy management, so the area is looking less like a bargain centre than it did
before.  Want to hear something worse?  I got four of the Prowlers and three
Celestial Stingers (6969) for $5 each--a bit consterning after having bought five
Prowlers for $10.50 each two weeks before--but I wasn't going to complain.

That's a good parts repository too.

You were in the Menlo Park Mall to see the Unitron Star Hawk II at FAO?  :)  $42,
blah.  Where did you see the MTron set?  Zany Brainy just scored a bunch of
shuttles, like 30-some.

best,

Where did you see the MTron set? They were at the ZB on Route 1 by Mercer Mall and Market Fair. But that was about a month ago. Last week they weren't there anymore. They did have the watches though, whoopie.(Note the sarcasm). If you see anything (...) (27 years ago, 22-Nov-99, to lugnet.castle)
