Allan, Cary, Lar, et al...
I too have had long interest in a "grab bag" of sorts. I am really intrigued by
the randomness of the idea (kinda like those pills that dinosaurs come from
after you dip em in water...you never know whatcha gonna get ;-) and the
oddities that have appeared so far are neat.
Now, after reading the initial post yesterday and googling over the pictures, I
went to my local TRU and Kohl's (Hazlet & Holmdel, NJ, respectively). I was
disappointed to find no sign of these tubs, meanwhile there was a huge stack of
K'nex tubs right next to the LEGO section of TRU. ;-( However, it was reassuring
to hear that Bricklink sellers are just finding these things so hopefully they
will surface around these parts soon. Which reminds me, need to go call Target.
:-D
Happy hunting everyone!
