(...) These are on the shelf at a Walgreens in Lake Zurich, IL. I just picked one up for $5.99. I haven't had a chance to inventory it yet, so I can't really say what parts might be "extra." It's in a standard yellow box, not a plastic tub. -Jon (20 years ago, 30-Oct-04, to lugnet.lego)

What a deal! I bought 3 boxes at each of two stores. (...) (20 years ago, 31-Oct-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.general, lugnet.loc.us.ca.sac, lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf, FTX)

Peeron's inventory for this set is SO screwy, I can't trust it. It is listing 8x8 bricks, and teal 2x4s, that none of the 9 I've gotten have. It would be nice if the inventory ONLY listed the [standard] bricks from the set, as many people parting (...) (20 years ago, 4-Nov-04, to lugnet.lego)
