I'm looking for Castle (new and old), pirates, western (...) (25 years ago, 17-Feb-00, to lugnet.loc.ca.on.tor)

(...) Didn`t see some yet but retail price is 69.99$, maybe they are triyng to do more money on SW while they are the only one to have them yet. The store can have them for around 50$ each from TLC. Martin (25 years ago, 16-Feb-00, to lugnet.loc.ca)
