Regarding TRU, that sounds true, but I didn't see Mindstorms in the lego
section. Is it somewhere else in the store? I was there last week. They
have the 4128 large Freestyle buckets there.


I saw an empty shelf labeled Mindstorms at the end of the Lego aisle, but
there weren't any copies.  I have seen them at the Hamilton Fry's, though,
along with both expansion sets.

What I was really after, though, was if there were any stores with a
consistent selection of Technic sets.  I can get a copy of the 8480 Space
Shuttle for a total of $127.44 (including shipping), shipped from the Lego
Imagination Center (407-828-0065).  That store is in Atlanta, I think.

The 8480 set includes 2 motors, and some other parts that can be used with
Mindstorms (which has 3 motor outputs but only comes with 2 motors).  Since
it has around 1300 parts, it should complement Mindstorms nicely.  And from
what I have heard, it's a fun model to build as well.

So if there is anyone out there who has found bargains/great selection of
Technic in the South Bay, I would be interested in finding out.

If I see a good supply of Technic here in the east bay would you like to know? (...) (26 years ago, 2-Oct-98, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf.sj)
