If you go to Epcot Center, see the gift shop in Norway. They have some Lego sculptures inside. They also sell (cough cough, Mouse markup) some promo sets (think ninja minifigs.) Hvor mye koster det? (25 years ago, 18-Feb-00, to lugnet.loc.us.fl.orl, lugnet.market.shopping)

Hi, I'm gonna be in Orlando, FL next week and was wondering, are there any good stores in the area? Also, are sales taxes higher than, say, Boston? TIA, -Shiri "so psyched to get there" Dori (25 years ago, 18-Feb-00, to lugnet.loc.us.fl.orl, lugnet.market.shopping)

I was just at the TRU on E. Colonial (near Fashion Square Mall) today (4/16/99) and they had about six X-Wing sets on the shelf. Didn't see any other SW sets. Just thought I'd let people know. Andy (26 years ago, 17-Apr-99, to lugnet.loc.us.fl.orl)
