Further to James's information, an enquiry call to LA this morning (to get
replacement parts for my 7171 and 7161!!! No printing on Anakin's podracer
doors and Obi-Wan's face was missing!!!) yeilded a bit more information.
Confirmed the GB's Viking show over the Easter School Holidays, so keep it
free for a group venture!!!! Kids welcome so we don't all look like total
freaks (but who cares?!?!?)
There is a Pirates travelling show (hear that Richard, Pirates!!!) currently
at Penrith Plaza until April 30, then it moves to Macarthur and then
Bankstown, finishing mid June. Another group venture perhaps??? Apparently it
is split between Big W and Target, can PeterW confirm??
So start checking your diaries and freeing up a day on a weekend (or we could
all chuck sickies ;-) for a LegOz 2000.2v1 get together.

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)
