On my way into work today, I stopped by the Toysrus and Kmart in Emeryville. No y2k Lego, sorry to say. Did buy a bunch of Droid Starfighters and Landspeeders at Kmart where they're having a 25% off Star Wars toys sale. Mmmm... more beige and brown (...)

(...) Is fred looking for 2x3 black bricks? I have quite a few that I was going to use for train roadbed, but I could part with some if it will help with your project. I have about 1200 of them. How many do you need? Mike (25 years ago, 14-Dec-99, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)

I have a whopping 28 2x3 black available (I SWEAR I have more somewhere, but can't find them. 2x3 black seem to be rare!). Is this a community effort, or are you doing it yourself? I can trade them to you, see my Wants page at (URL) to see what I (...) (25 years ago, 14-Dec-99, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)

Hey you all. I must be out of the loop too much here. When I saw people talking about 7124 I went and looked it up. There's a picture there.

(...) Yesterday I stopped by the Zainy Brainy and Toysrus in San Mateo. No y2k. Since new sets only appeared in the east yesterday, I wouldn't expect them to appear in the bay area for a few days. - chris (25 years ago, 12-Dec-99, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)

Hehe, I was HOPING to keep all 5 4547s, but I need to trade one away, so I can get a 4558 for the other 4547s to go with.
