My local newsagent has the £1.99 magazine. The mini tie fighter looks very unexiting. If anybody wants, I can post it to them for £2.40 including p&p in the UK. David (22 years ago, 9-Nov-02, to lugnet.loc.uk, lugnet.starwars)

Yes, you did, my apologies. That's about comparable with the €5/100g at Legoland. You'd almost think they'd planned it :-) There isn't anything that I really need in the selection you describe, though, so I probably won't wander over this weekend. (...) (22 years ago, 7-Nov-02, to lugnet.loc.uk)
