FYI people, the SV TRU had SOME of the 3552s with the motor and 9V battery box
as of a few hours ago.  I grabbed 10, left about that many.  So if you want
motors CHEAP at $9.97 per set, better get down there - who knows if they have
more in back or not.

That was the only motorized set I saw, they didn't have much ZNAP.

  Re: Technic & robotics-compatible LEGO ZNAP clearance at TRU
 
Here in San Jose, I have found more than a few TRU that still had many of the 3552, 3571 and 3520. If any one wanted a set they cant find locally, tell me and I will get them for you. (...) (26 years ago, 25-Jul-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)
