    Soccer buses —Richard Parsons
   Evening all. Having just had a bit of a fool with one of the soccer buses, I echo the support for them that I have read around the place. Its a good, non-juniorised set, plenty of window, figs, hair, plates, and at $20, pretty good value. Timmy (...) (24 years ago, 15-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.au)

Hmmm. But yeah, it's a good set which also includes a (...) (24 years ago, 15-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.au)

   (...) As I have said before, this set with people playing would be a great basis as a drawcard for an in-store display. They are doing it with the green truck tour in the states. pete.w (24 years ago, 16-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.au)

     (...) If you put the white-rubbery-band thing on the goalie stick, how does the goalie put the ball back into play ?

        Re: Soccer sets, thumbs up —Santosh Bhat
   I'll be in too. I'll bring along a team of 5+1 goalie. I don't agree with rule #3 though. The goalie is the one that does the acrobatic dives left/right and back/forward.

   (...) Penrith TRU had them, each set gives you four players (2 each side), but the four field plates are half the size of the 3409 field plates.
