I found the Star Wars sets at K-Mart in Cary. I picked up all five. After I got one of each, only one X-Wing left, several Snow Speeders, and tons of Landspeeders and Speeder Bikes. I just finished assembling the Landspeeder. Frank (26 years ago, 24-Mar-99, to lugnet.loc.us.nc.ral, lugnet.market.shopping)
