This is another set for the Alpha Team that does not appear in any catalog
that I have.  I was wondering if anyone else noticed this set and has any
idea as to why these odd sets keep appearing in Toys R Us.

Perhaps if there is a representative at BrickWest, someone could ask them
why there is no mention of these sets in any Lego catalog, but they are
showing up in Toys R Us.

The set is alright is does offer some interesting pieces:

2 Black Ufo hull pieces as well as two 2x4 angle pieces as well as some
pieces in transparent red...

Good question!

But, just wonderin' how many Skeleton hench-men are in that set?

I'm guessing 2... right?
So how much did the set cost?

                  thanx,

(...) I'd bet it's a $15 or $20 set, to match that 'mech. I saw that picture too, and almost posted about it, but stupidly never got around to it. I think there are indeed two henchmen with it, if the toyfair pic is any indication. best LFB (22 years ago, 14-Feb-02, to lugnet.general)

(...) There are 2 Skeleton henchmen in the set. The set only costs $10 US. If anyone is in need of Black UFO saucer sections, this is definitely a cheap way to get them. - Jim F. (22 years ago, 14-Feb-02, to lugnet.general)
