    Review of the 5571 Black Cat / Big Rig / Big Truck —Kerry Raymond
   It's been a bit quiet lately so time to inject some conversation starters ... I finally acquired a 5571 Black Cat / Big Rig / Big Truck via e-bay. FYI, I paid A$262 (from memory) plus postage.

     (...) Nuh-uh :-) There's at least one BV sets, IIRC, that has this black cat (not to mention the white one and the cool-looking tiger-striped one). And like Paul pointed out that tiny paradisa set has it too... as well as a Scala set. (Yes, yes, the (...) (24 years ago, 9-Sep-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.general)

      (...) Set #4393 looks like it has 1 white, 1 black, and 1 striped cat, and it's only $34.99, AND it's available right now. -Adam 8^D (24 years ago, 9-Sep-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.general)

      Funny - any time I go through a checkout with LEGO, no matter what kind it is, I've never had any sales assistant so much as blink, they just scan the item, take my dough, and ring it all up. :-) If anyone asks I just politely make an excuse ... ;-) (...)

      (...) Any sign of these 2870s in the Sydney region? I thought Paradisa was well and truly dead... Maybe BigW has discovered a few unopened crates from 1997-98: see the pile of 6568s that have turned up for $18. --DaveL (24 years ago, 11-Sep-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.org.au)
