Hello,
I was at the Grocery store yesterday, and I DID find the Lego Creator CD on a
box of Cheerios (the Honey Nut kind). Lucky for me, cause I can't stand Coco-
puff, or lucky charms. The store was the Busch's in Ann Arbor, MI. Other GM
boxes had different CD's (like the Millionaire game), and the back of the box
mentioned something like, "collect them all."
I happen to agree with the other threads that say Lego is dumping inventory.
Especially, if there really is a Lego Creator 2 coming out. I haven't tried the
CD yet. I did download LDraw a few months ago, but I honestly can't get past
its interface problems. (Pls don't flame me, thoa. I can see that it is a good
program. And it does great things given that it is a volunteer/open source
project.) Anyway, I just got it as a fun thing. I consider my money spent on
the Cheerios, which are super yummy!
