  How did you come out of your Dark Ages?
 
Hello, I was wondering if any of you had any interesting stories about what prompted your exit from your Dark Ages. Was there a specific set? Did you visit someone with a layout?

  Re: 2001 Sets at Zellers!!!
 
(...) Has anyone seen any more Studios Sets in Canada? I was at Zellers today and also only saw the Life on Mars sets. TRU seems to have stocked up only on the 2000 sets for Xmas. (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.loc.ca)

  Re: 2001 Sets at Zellers!!!
 
(...) Zellers PEI has no 2001 Star Wars sets yet. Spotted 7313 (Life on Mars)& 1356 (Studios) on the shelf last night. I'm hoping PEI is the truck's next stop after N.B. Thanks for the update Jeff! Andrew Burt (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.loc.ca)
 
  Re: 2001 Sets at Zellers!!!
 
(...) Sorry for the lack of specifics. I saw the Droid Escape and Droid Carrier sets in Ste. Basile, New Brunswick at Zellers. I bet the store has some TIEs too, but didn't have the shelf space to display them. Jeff J (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.loc.ca)
 
  Re: 2001 Star Wars in Mississauga, ON
 
I only bought one of each, as I always do. The Trooper in the TIE set is making it hard to stick with that policy though (a fleet of TIE's would be cool too :) Sorry, I don't have the resources or the time to purchase sets and send them out....they (...)

  Re: eFlyer question
