  Re: Shop report - Toy Stack, Lakeside, Thurrock, Essex
 
(...) I was just at the Toy Stack at Bluewater mall, east of London and they have many (all, I think) of the same items.

(...) That was a relatively small foray. ("small potatoes", as we say) I once (at Potomac Mills) bought so much that it took 6 large cartons to ship it all to me, and that was all just one particular set (the future car). However, you must admit, (...) (24 years ago, 29-Oct-00, to lugnet.loc.uk)

(...) It is a pity the (so called) Future Car could not be claimed to be a "beauty" also. I too bought too much of this one in the past. The word "dud" comes to mind. The mind boggles at what you did with your six _large_ "cartons" of them. I think (...) (24 years ago, 30-Oct-00, to lugnet.loc.uk)

  Re: Shop report - Toy Stack, Lakeside, Thurrock, Essex
 
(...) The thing that made me pretty interested in the set at the time was that if I remember correctly, the combined cost of getting 4 wheels from the service catalogue was actually not much cheaper than the 16 UKP it costs for the set! Of course, (...) (24 years ago, 30-Oct-00, to lugnet.loc.uk)
