Good news Kerry! Harold is featured in the Target catalogue starting this Thursday - 20% off Lego. Hopefully Cranky will be there too. Deidre (18 years ago, 5-Sep-06, to lugnet.loc.au)

I visited KMart at Indooroopilly Shoppingtown in Brisbane today. I was not specifically on a Lego-buying mission, but since I was there, I figured I might as well pass by the Lego aisle. Well, what a disappointment. There was a sign saying 20% off (...) (18 years ago, 22-Aug-06, to lugnet.loc.au)

Has anyone sighted the new Thomas the Tank Engine sets: * 3300 Harold the Helicopter * 3301 Cargo-Loading Cranky here in Oz? My Thomas-loving nephew has his 4th birthday in a few weeks, so I'm hoping to buy one of these sets for his birthday. Kerry (18 years ago, 14-Aug-06, to lugnet.loc.au)
