  Still looking for StarWars in Vancouver?
 
Most of the places carrying StarWars stuff have completely sold out. However, earlier today (Fri April 2) I found two stores which have all five sets. Kids Wonderland (Phone: 273-8398) in the Richmond Centre Mall (between No 3 Rd & Minoru, and (...) (25 years ago, 3-Apr-99, to lugnet.loc.ca.bc.van)
 
  Snowspeeders have Landed
 
Me thinks this is news for the area... Found about 8-10 Snowspeeders in TRU-Metrotown. $28+tax. The one I bought had a questionnaire that entitles me to a free gift...wohoo! TJ (25 years ago, 25-Mar-99, to lugnet.loc.ca.bc.van)
 
  Mindstorms at Bay Downtown
 
Although Mindstorms is nothing new, having it at the Bay is. Especially with their frequent 20+% off Lego, S&S's etc. The RIS was $300 and the two expansion sets (Robo Sports and Extreme Creatures) was $80. Timing a Lego sale (20%) with their (...)

Hi there Dave, I only got re-hooked this Xmas too. Not to Mindstorms (hey, I spend all my working hours on the computer, not gonna _play_ on it too!) but to buildings and trains. And boats. Lotsa fun. The house is full of Lego! Kevin (25 years ago, 9-Feb-99, to lugnet.loc.ca.bc.van)

  Re: Bay Sales?
 
Linc Smith wrote in message ... (...) They have a sale, but LEGO is not included. The Bay marks up their LEGO too much anyway, but they will match other stores' prices. Randy (25 years ago, 24-Jan-99, to lugnet.loc.ca.bc.van, lugnet.loc.ca.bc.vic)
