    What's the deal with 5571 Black Cat Big Rig? —Joshua Delahunty
   I read on RTL a couple weeks back that S@H had discontinued this set. Larry P. indicated that he'd just bought one quite recently at that time, but noone else stepped forward to support the idea that they are still in stock. Then I got e-mail from (...)

     (...) Mike, Where did you get 5571 at such a low price? Is it still available? Alan (26 years ago, 11-Nov-98, to lugnet.general)

     (...) Wow, a not-so-random invocation of my name. My friend Jonas got them for me at a TRU in AZ over a year ago. Last two, I think. I traded one to a friend for a lot of Castle sets and basically dumped the other one into my parts bins. Tom's (...) (26 years ago, 11-Nov-98, to lugnet.general)

     (...) My take on 5561 is good source of parts, but not all that sturdy, the wheels keep falling off. I have 4 or 5, got them mostly for the red and white windows but couldn't resist building one. It's been built for 3 months now which is a while for (...)

   (...) Yep. I'm hoping Target will discount this set big after Christmas. (26 years ago, 11-Nov-98, to lugnet.general)
   
        Re: What's the deal with 5571 Black Cat Big Rig? —Tom McDonald
   (...) 5542 is a cool set, for two reasons: doors and windows! Well, actually, there's black and yellow pieces too. The model is cool, though I did not affix the stickers. If I see someone wheeling away a palette of discounted 5542's on Dec. 26, I'll (...) (26 years ago, 11-Nov-98, to lugnet.general)

     (...) Oh, you won't see me buying anything on Dec 26. Only amateurs buy that early. If you want STEEP clearances you have to watch the 10, 20, 30% off and more sales go by and let the stuff sit on the shelf. (26 years ago, 11-Nov-98, to lugnet.general)
   
        Re: What's the deal with 5571 Black Cat Big Rig? —Tom Stangl
   Yep, and if I manage to find any on deep clearance (yahRIGHT!), I'll be selling off most of the parts, including.....DOORS AND WINDOWS! ;-) (...) -- | Tom Stangl, Technical Support Netscape Communications Corp | | Please do not associate my personal (...)
