I've got an old catalogue at home that has the 'Dark Shark' in it. On
looking up the set number on LUGNET it turns out this was an alternative
name for the Black Seas Barracuda.
The Red Beard Runner (6289) was rereleased as the Pirate Battle Ship (6290).
Toyworld in Wynnum still has them on sale for $99 if anyone's interested.
Anyone know when the next KMart 15% off sale is? I don't have a Myer card,
nor do I have any pressing reason to spend $100 there, but I'm itching to
get the TIE fighter set.

| (...) Glad I put that (?) in there, I wasn't sure something with a red hull would be considered 'Dark', unless it was RBR (Rebel Blockade Runner) Dark Red :^) (...) Pirate Battle Ship...very ho-hum. (22 years ago, 14-Aug-02, to lugnet.loc.au)
