 | | 1999 sets spotted
|
|
I found a bunch of the 1999 sets in the Zellers in Bedford Place mall today. They had some space port, Adventurers, city centre, ninja figure pack, two boats that float, and one of the new mini-technic sets ($5.99 I think). Everything looks very (...)

(...) If 8 posts from 4 people count as 'traffic' ;) (...) My interests tend to be castle-oriented as well, although I'm starting to feel the Mindstorms itch - but not quite ~300 dollars of itch yet. The off-line people I clump with tend also to (...) (26 years ago, 4-Jan-99, to lugnet.loc.ca.ab.edm)

James, I'm not too local, but this is the only Canadian lugnet.loc I've found that actually has traffic! I would be interested in trades or swapping ideas or whatever, even though I'm a few provinces down the road. I love Castle, Pirates, Aquazone (...) (26 years ago, 3-Jan-99, to lugnet.loc.ca.ab.edm)

Has anyone seen the 1999 line anywhere yet? I've seen 2 sets in, of all places, a Zellers. Horribly overpriced, too. On seeing that, I rushed over to a TRU thinking (foolish me) that if _Zellers_ had them, TRU must... Sigh. Nowhere else seems to (...) (26 years ago, 31-Dec-98, to lugnet.loc.ca)

(...) It's a pain finding _anything_ in the Edmonton Walmarts - I didn't even know about a toy clearance! No, I've found that in general, there's only two places to find good Lego sets for decent prices - Kingsway mall (Sears, the Bay and Zellers (...) (26 years ago, 10-Dec-98, to lugnet.loc.ca.ab.edm)

Hi James, I read this group fairly regularly, but message volume is pretty light! As I don't live in Edmonton, it is nice to hear about the Lego sales from a local person. Have you found the toy clearance sections in the various Edmonton Walmarts? I (...) (26 years ago, 10-Dec-98, to lugnet.loc.ca.ab.edm)

Hey, I just found out last night that the Walmart in Capilano mall has 6497 Twisted Time Train on for ~25.00, if anyone's interested. Normally I wouldn't care much for this set myself, but it has several useful bits for castle construction, not to (...) (26 years ago, 10-Dec-98, to lugnet.loc.ca.ab.edm)

I was wondering if anyone would be interested in doing local trades? I know there isn't a lot of activity on here (yet) but I'm fairly certain that I'm not the only one who knows 4 or 5 local enthusiasts who can't get online for one reason or (...) (26 years ago, 2-Dec-98, to lugnet.loc.ca.ab.edm)
