I picked up the Technic 3038 [CyberSlam Spider attack?] for 38$ CDN [ about 25
to 30$ US].. it was opened but everything was intact in their plastic bags.
I'm not crazy about Cyberslam but this was too good of a deal to pass up
considering it had a technic 9V motor kit IN IT. That blew me away. I also
noted the 8239 was on sale at half off, IMO not worth it at retail but at half
off its a good deal since it has the small technic parts case.


That was a poor deal.  I got 2 (and given 1) that were bought for $29 CDN
each...:)



On other note I came across my first true "lego find"... a sealed 8857 chopper
bike. The box was really worn but not suprising since its been kicking around
a shelf for a good number of years... I picked it up along with a newer 5533
and ran to the checkout.

Got 2.  One is in my "for sale" pile, $50 US plus shipping would get it...
A Walmart in North Sidney, NS had _skads_ of them, I picked up one, then got
another one here in St Johns. (both pre-christmas)

There are explorien starships, (the big one) on the shelves here still...and I
just picked up a Nebula Outpost for $9 at TRU.

no, there are no more of the spider slammers to be had here...they were gone
long before Xmas...and I figured 3 or 4 of them would be enough.

(...) I find TRU can yield an occasional bargin. Here in Toronto I came across a few good deals at TRU. I picked up the Technic 3038 [CyberSlam Spider attack?] for 38$ CDN [ about 25 to 30$ US].. it was opened but everything was intact in their (...) (25 years ago, 8-Feb-00, to lugnet.loc.uk)
