Man, we need to find more people to fill this place.

Okay, I'll take you up on that offer, and I'll concentrate on shopping cuz
that's what I do best!  I would love to post about great LEGO finds around
Sacto, but there rarely are any.  Your Targets are wiped out before the • LEGO
reaches any significant discount, your Walmarts are so out of the way it • isn't
worth the trip, and the only Tuesday Morning I've ever visited was less • than
impressive.

I HAVE found the following over the past few years:

several 4565's at roughly $61 each out the door from Zany Brainy

a display Mindstorms 1.5 RIS missing the RCX unit and some misc. parts for • $15
from a going out of business toy store in Arden Fair

several pit droids and battle droids for $4 or $6 (?) from Kmart on Howe • Ave.

some Interstellar Starfighters, Arachnoid Starbases, and the large • Insectoid
set for $10.90 each last year at the south area TRU.

But on the whole, not much.

Kinda sad, isn't it?

At a "Thrift World" store I found a large bag containing miscellaneous parts
from space, pitrate, and castle, and it included most of the parts to a
Blacktron 2 set (6933), which was missing only a few major parts (the shocks
and wheels) and a few minor ones, but I have it mostly together!  I also
traded the Castle people for a bunch of Classic Space people as well!  Too
bad this is probably very rare.

Would you know anything about what happened to the 49er flea market?
