Heh...guess I can forget going to the Mall of America, since the Site is practically
right in my backyard.  (Well, OK, Woburn, Waltham, they're all Boston suburbs anyway.)

I've been to both. The LIC@MOA has holes in the current line (no Model
team, for instance) but has stuff that is not available many other
places in the US (playing cards, the most different keychains I've ever
seen, rubber brick erasers, rulers, books, etc.)

Unfortunately most of this stuff is not set stuff, it's "trinkets and
trash". Fun stuff but just more ways to spend money (I dropped a hundred
on trinkets and didn't even buy many keychains)

IMNSHO You need to go to both, eventually. The Site should be elevated
to a "minor" shrine in the pantheon of potential pilgramage places. :-P
