Down here, most toyworlds have sold out of 7151's, so I don't know what they were last priced at. I do know, however, that the 5988's have dropped in price, but I think they are either $79.99 or $89.99 down here. [I was told that the prices the (...) (25 years ago, 26-May-00, to lugnet.loc.au)

I initially thought it was a one-off sighting ... but I have now seen a few Toyworld stores in Brisbane stocked to the gills with: 7151 Sith Infiltrators at $39 (down from $89) 5988 Pharoahs Forbidden Ruins at $99 (down from $189) Warning: all (...) (25 years ago, 26-May-00, to lugnet.loc.au)

Santosh, Good idea. My major concern would be that LA may have some trouble with the www.lugnet.com site. Maybe a pointer to the Australian section as well? [or at least the .loc anyway, as that shows posings in Aus. If they see .loc.au, they'll see (...) (25 years ago, 26-May-00, to lugnet.loc.au)
