 | | Another Use for Dino Cans
|
|
I got the 2003 Pitsco catalog yesterday and got chuckle for the use of the dino cans for the "eLab Green Car" set. See (URL) looks like they have some new parts packs, so it would be worth getting a copy of the catalog. (22 years ago, 9-Jan-03, to lugnet.dacta)

Hello Colin, In order to get this CD-ROM for 2.5.1 I called Deanna Newell at Pitsco. She was on vacation and they transferred me to some very friendly tech support people.
