add , it's called "metroliner kit".

Now you can buy the extrta car on it's own as well as the metroliner on it's
own,but when I what looking for these set/s (the tourist car and the deluxe set
they cannot be bourght in the Australian part of the site but can be found on
the USA part of the site ??

What's go on here?! isn't this why the store was set up ,to buy speaicalty sets
and elements available to everyone world wide. If anyone may know why this is so
please drop a post.

I think its one issue that needs to be addressed.  For Lego Shop @ Home to
really be a global operation, you should be able to get something whether your
"local" fulfillment center is out of stock, or doesn't carry that particular
item yet.

Of course, there are countries that either a) don't have Shop@Home service, or
b) it is severely lacking for one reason or another.

Another issue that I find troublesome, is why is Canada set to US currency?  At
the moment, its cheaper to buy from Shop@Home than at regular price here in
Canada, since the currency devaluation of the US dollar... but that is another
matter.

Also, what's with the decision to discontinue the 3739 Blacksmith Shop?  That's
the BEST Castle set out, and its the best that's been released in a LONG, LONG
time.

just some minor gripes,
Ben M.
