  Re: Mindstorms RDS at Frys $69
 
So was this a "today only" thing, or should I stop by Saturday? What about the RIS? (...) -- Tom Stangl ***(URL) Visual FAQ home ***(URL) Bay Area DSMs (25 years ago, 13-May-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)
 
  Mindstorms RDS at Frys $69
 
The Robotics Discovery Set is $69 at Fry's today. ("Scout" - a Blue programable brick, 2 motors, 2 clutch gears, 2 touch sensors, 380 other parts). You can program it from the LCD interface or get a remote control. Trivia: Motor "C" on the remote (...) (25 years ago, 13-May-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)
 
  Re: Znap
 
(...) Thanks for the offer, but an apology is not necessary. Besides, I've already got all the Znap I want. Actually, I don't like it that much. I built one model of each of four sets and it was fun, but I don't like it as much as either Lego or (...) (25 years ago, 28-Apr-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)
 
  Re: Znap
 
I'm sorry, Eric - I didn't get in to the TRU until late Friday night. I would sell the Znap to you at the $22.50 + tax cost by way of apology, if you want. Paul Sinasohn bearitone@my-deja.com (25 years ago, 28-Apr-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)
 
  Re: FOTD 4560 + X-Wing
 
(...) Yup. I got my 4561 from Toysmart for $72. Russell Clark, BayLUG/BayLTC (URL) 39423705 (25 years ago, 26-Apr-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)
 
  Re: FOTD 4560 + X-Wing
 
(...) I got a copy of 4561 with the speed controller at the salvation army for 50% off. it was open but contained all of the pieces, including a speed regulator (which is almost worth as much as what i paid for it). the set had target stickers all (...)

  Re: Znap
 
(...) I think the better time to post that information would have been last week! I didn't get any replies to my previous request for information... Btw, did you know 2 out of 3 of the $20 sets also have 9V motors? I noticed a difference, though. (...) (25 years ago, 26-Apr-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)
 
  Re: Znap
 
The Winchester TRU had the "blackmobile" $20 set and the $30 helicopter transport set last week, but none of the smaller ones. BTW, they also had the Millenia Throwbot with the free legoland ticket (child free with paid adult). -gyug (...) (25 years ago, 25-Apr-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)
 
  Re: Znap
 
(...) The Emeryville TRU had a good selection last week during the BOGO50 sale, so i got a $29.95 set with a 9volt motor, figuring that $22.50 isn't too bad for a motor set.... Paul Sinasohn (25 years ago, 25-Apr-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)
 
  Re: Znap
 
The Sunnyvale TRU now has Znap. Two small sets, a $10 set, three different $20 sets, and a $30 set. Quantities were good. Too bad the BOGO50% is over. /Eric McC/ (25 years ago, 25-Apr-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)
 
  Re: FOTD 4560 + X-Wing
 
(...) I would have to disagree that the used 4561 for $92 is a good deal. These were regularly available new for less than that from a couple of online companies (KBkids, ToySmart) as well as at Targets after Christmas. In fact, there are even some (...)

Hi, Is there a need for 4560/4561? I think I can put my hands on a few sets. Eric. (...) (25 years ago, 25-Apr-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)
 
  FOTD 4560 + X-Wing
 
Toy Go Round yields another find. #4560/4561 Railway Express, 99.9% complete for $92 and an X-wing, also 99% complete for $20. Not bad. Some fantastic parts for such a crappy train design. Mike P., Tom S., and Zonker, I will be sending out e-mails (...) (25 years ago, 25-Apr-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)

Hello, all! I am having a get together on this upcoming Saturday at my place (Selma, CA - just outside of Fresno) and will be having all the local Adult Lego Fans here and was wondering if you wanted to come down.

  Znap
 
Hello, The Sunnyvale TRU still doesn't have any Znap. It's in the computer but not on the shelves. Has anyone seen Znap in the Bay Area, and if so where? Thanks, /Eric/ (25 years ago, 7-Apr-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)
