(...) W4K is still there and happening, it is across the road from the plaza and is on the movie/theatre side of the plaza on the road that leads from the train station (within 100 metres of such). Apparently W4K's lease runs another 8 yrs so they (...) (25 years ago, 5-Apr-00, to lugnet.loc.au.nsw.syd)

(...) Just a little bit of extra news: GBs Chatswood has a 60cm long model of an X-wing (not the 7191 unfortunately) for a "guess the number of pieces" competition. Not much of a display up around it -- I'll see if they've tidied things up later (...) (25 years ago, 5-Apr-00, to lugnet.loc.au.nsw.syd)
