  Re: Is Robotics Discovery Set good?
 
(...) come as (...) I think the Robot Invntion system is too much money. Since i'm gettng the Cyber Strikers set, a $60 dinosaur book, and perhaps other things for Christmas too, I don't think I'd be allowed to do that. And I don't really like (...)

  Re: Is Robotics Discovery Set good?
 
(...) The RDS is a really cool set. And if it is your first time programming then i think its the way to go.

  Is Robotics Discovery Set good?

  RE: ZNAP sale
 
(...) The 3571 has the motor, battery box, cable, and two flex shafts. The flex shafts are the best part, IMHO. ZNAP will be reissued in a few years I'm sure, once they've designed better mating to standard Technic. Cheers, Ralph Hempel - P.Eng (...) (24 years ago, 19-Oct-00, to lugnet.loc.ca.on)

(...) Bluewater is actually an out-of-town shopping centre in Kent, about 20 miles to the east (and a little south) of the centre of the city of London, which in case the reference to Kent didn't give it away, isn't the one in Ontario. I believe it (...) (24 years ago, 18-Oct-00, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.loc.uk, lugnet.loc.ca.on)
