    Alpha Team sighting in Columbus OH —Mark D. McKean
   Found my first Alpha Team set today (in Columbus, OH, at the W. Broad St. TRU). 6773 Alpha Team Helicopter. They had about ten of them on the shelf. It was the only Alpha Team set they had out. Of course I bought one :-) . No real review, but a few (...) (23 years ago, 27-Feb-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.loc.us.oh.col)

     (...) Cool. What other sets include the click hinge/axle hole piece? (...) The 8448 supercar has a lot of the longest ones (#16 I think) in red. (23 years ago, 27-Feb-01, to lugnet.general)

      Mark D. McKean wrote in message ... (...) My five year old just put this set together and I found that the canopy fits very well. Our UCS xwing has a canopy problem. Maybe you just got a bad part. Rose (23 years ago, 3-Mar-01, to lugnet.general)

     (...) Take the minifig out and see if it closes better. I noticed after I assembled mine that the minifig sitting in certain positions was too tall for the canopy. When I moved him a little, the canopy closed around him just fine. (...) No one's UCS (...) (23 years ago, 3-Mar-01, to lugnet.general)

     (...) I figured that out the next day. It's the hairpiece that seems to be the problem...that sharp edge along the front sticks out farther than would a helmet. But I found a position that works. I've actually noticed a number of models, over many (...) (23 years ago, 4-Mar-01, to lugnet.general)
   
        Re: Alpha Team sighting in Columbus OH —Joel Jacobsen
   (...) As of Wednesday night, the TRU on Broad also has added the Alpha Team ATV/Sub set 6774, Ogel Command Striker 6771 and Ogel Command Center 6776. I got a 6771 (and an old Stringrays set that was marked down from $30 to $10 - woo!). My opinions (...) (23 years ago, 10-Mar-01, to lugnet.loc.us.oh.col)
   
        Re: Alpha Team sighting in Columbus OH —Mark D. McKean
   (...) That was me who mentioned it last year. About six months or so ago, they stopped keeping the Lego on "permanent" discount and switched to a rotating sale (i.e., every few weeks, they'll put them on unadvertised discount for a week). The 20% (...) (23 years ago, 11-Mar-01, to lugnet.loc.us.oh.col)
   
        Re: Alpha Team sighting in Columbus OH —Joel Jacobsen
   (...) Huh.. well I guess I lucked into it then. We don't get the paper, so I was not aware of the sale. My wife wanted to stop there to look at something else that she was told was on sale. She was most kind and humored me enough to let me browse (...) (23 years ago, 14-Mar-01, to lugnet.loc.us.oh.col)
