Yep..good sets, and BIG boxes. I got some about a week ago, and more Monday
night. If the sets weren't on a promo cardboard stand, it may be possible to
get the one from the safeway you got your sets from...they are 3 parts: the
stand, the shelf, and the big picture back/top, and come in the same carton
as the sets. [but from personal experience...they can be a real BU***R to
put together...
