No prob. On the contrary: thanks! I'd been to shy to post, but seeing
my name in a post actually made me feel up to it.

It's big. Since I first posted I've building away (in front of the TV)
and I only have completed the legs. The mini-figs are awesome.

There was at least one more. I say at least because I actually saw one
more, but I suspect they have more. The reason is that when we first
met there there were only a few Yodas in not very good boxes, and today
I saw at least 4 more. So, my guess is that since the Lego Aisle is
pretty full, they are taking the set out the back as it goes.

That is the big question mark. Fast answer: I don't know. The lady I
talked with was very nice. However, the computer would simply not "ring
it" for $105, so what she had to do was give me gift certificate for
half the price. It was very complicated (that's why I skipped over the
details in my first post), but in the end they honored the sale. My
opinion, is that it is worth a try.


Hope this helps,

Carlos P.
