Still a few of these about, especially the Fire Station. If they can't sell
these at this price, will they ever sell, maybe the sale was too late and
the Big W shoppers' dollars were already spent elsewhere.
A mum was examining the islander set in one store, and quizzed me as to it's
origins, not being in the catalogue can't help recognition value and won't
put it on Xmas "I want" lists, only half the population are online.

Not to mention the foliage:-palm trees, bushes and those green branchy things.
Some nice castle bits for a pirate set.

You could always leave them in a polybag for a week and wait for the protein
re-allocation to take place, five islanders go in,.....three islanders and a
doggie bag come out.
