Bought an "Escape from Privet Drive" this week, Camberley Argos £24.99, and thought I'd share a few thoughts about it. I bought the set mainly for the car, really just to see how it was put together. - it uses SNOT techniques at the front, but they (...) (22 years ago, 21-Sep-02, to lugnet.loc.uk)

MK is a bit, how shall I put it, "low rent" though, but it's location has got a lot going for it. The Bluewater shop was a bit of a disapointment, as was the shop at LLW actually. Toys R Us often have a good range in general. "David Graham" (...) (22 years ago, 19-Sep-02, to lugnet.loc.uk)
