Hi. I don't have any 5235s, but I'd definitely be interested in some of the pneumatic bits out of 5218. How many sets were you thinking of getting? ROSCO SRC <LEGOArches@yahoo.com> wrote in message news:G2y0Kt.M7r@lugnet.com... (...) (24 years ago, 24-Oct-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.org.au)

I rang Lego Australia today, and they don't have any more 5235 sets left. We don't have any shops that I have seen or know about here that carry any of the service packs. Sorry.

I wonder where Lego gets the tubing from. I doubt they make it themselves. I bet there is some supplier that will sell you 100' roll of it for $10. I have seen many close equivalents, but has anyone found a really good match that is easy to order (...) (24 years ago, 9-Nov-00, to lugnet.org.ca.nalug, lugnet.org.au, lugnet.technic)

Well, just like my beloved <set:5235>, the various pneumatic parts (5099, 5107, 5108, 5109, 5116, 5117) are no longer available. In addition, the air tank has never - AFAIK - been available separately. Until now... :-) Unless someone else steps up (...)
