Thanks for replying! :) As you can see by the delay in my response this is a bad time for all concerned with holidays and summer chaos.

(...) Following up on my own article, I've now received a ship notice for 10152. The price is listed as $94.99, hopefully Canadian. So, either the automatic re-order happened, or someone did something on my behalf. If so, thanks! :-) (20 years ago, 23-Jun-04, to lugnet.loc.ca)

I'm not quite sure how extensive this sale is for, but I seen that the new Strata Tubs are $20 CDN ($10 off). I think most Toys R US are still trying to clear their remaining Cloud Cars (3.99 CDN) and Sopwith Camels ($19.99 CDN) among some of the (...) (20 years ago, 19-Jun-04, to lugnet.loc.ca)
