You didn't get the TIE???  Are you mad?!?  One word: Stormtrooper.  Or is
that two words?  ;-)  Anyway, thats good to hear that we should be seeing
them in the rest of Canada soon.  I was in TRU and Zellers today in Calgary,
hoping to find new sets, but with no luck.  Soon, I hope.

Some of the new 2001 sets are now on the shelves at Zellers!!!
I found the following sets at 2 stores in Guelph and Fergus

The prices shown are the regular price, but the sets are cheaper with the 20%
off sale that's on right now

Life on Mars
7312 T3-Trike $18.98
7313 Red Planet Protector  $27.95

Both of these sets look pretty cool. The 7313 has one of the new martian
minifigs and a neat looking walker!

Studios
1355 Temple of Gloom $9.99
A film set with johnny thunder a bit pyramid and a camera man

These 3 were the only 2001 sets I found today.  I'll be puttin them together
tonight once I'm done drooling over the other sets that area in the 2001
catalogue. :-)

I saw some more in Oshawa.

Star Wars-
Droid Escape (44 pcs, $9.99)
Battle droid Carrier (133! pcs, $14.97!)
TIE Fighter (about $28, not sure of piece count but slightly under 200)

Studios-
Stunt Catapult (27 pcs, $3.49)
Explosion Bank (didn't really look at it)

I got the Droid Escpae so  could have C3P0, and the set kind of sucks.  It
doesn't look like its made of LEGO, and the large rear engine is always falling
off.  Oh well, cool droids anyway.  Okay parts, I'm building new stuff with it
right now.  It was a really tough choice between this one and the Battle Droid
carrier, I decided that the droid carrier would be worth getting later at full
price so I got this one.

(...) I couldn't afford it, I only had about $15. If I had unlimited money, I'd be Star Wars complete. And I'm getting the Y/TIE set for Christmas too, I'll wait for reports on how similar they are. But if I can, I'll still get it for the (...) (24 years ago, 18-Nov-00, to lugnet.loc.ca)

I drove 1.5 hours to the nearest Zellers in hopes of finding the TIE or AT-ST, but it just had the droid carrier, $14.99, and droid escape, $9.99. A couple of "Life on Mars" sets were also there - the Trike ($18?) and a small set called the mono (...) (24 years ago, 19-Nov-00, to lugnet.loc.ca)
