| (...) We drove up there last weekend...not a lot to report on. I think they have a few Mindstorms boxes and some Dacta classroom kits, but no bulk parks etc. They were willing to pull stuff out of their warehouse, but the particularly interesting (...)

|
| Greetings, The Sunday Daily News (Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada) has an article on the local AFOLs. Unfortunately it does not appear to be on the paper's online site ( (URL) ).

| (...) To be more specific, the main set's track is the new dark grey, and the extra box is the old dark grey. I can imagine the confused calls to customer service now... *sigh* -Bryan (20 years ago, 10-Feb-05, to lugnet.loc.ca)

| Likewise around Mississauga area, they hit 70 a week before Christmas and GONE! Even at 100 that's a steal BUT BE WARNED, the track in the main set, is one colour grey, and the add-on boxes are another!! Silly packaging. (20 years ago, 10-Feb-05, to lugnet.loc.ca)

| (...) The Costco in our area (Vancouver, Burnaby, Coquitlam) had them for $99 but then they marked them down further to $69.99! After that, they got sold out very quickly. :( -Bryan (20 years ago, 9-Feb-05, to lugnet.loc.ca)
| | | | | Costco and HarryPotter motorized train
|
| Before Christmas, Costco had some Motorized Hogwarts Express train kit (train plus some straight and curved tracks) at about 170$ and a 40$ discount coupon. Then, they reduced the price to 99$. It is still at that price as we speak. Here in Quebec (...) (20 years ago, 9-Feb-05, to lugnet.loc.ca)

| (...) No, but we'll probably take a drive over there to check it out. We drove to the Whitby store a few months ago and it had a really impressive selection of sets. The only problem is that it's a little far--otherwise, I'd find myself much more (...) (20 years ago, 8-Feb-05, to lugnet.loc.ca.on, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
