Unless we come up with a specific weekday evening which is good for more folks,
and/or we feel that having a gatherthing this weekend would make folks less
likely to do a weekday meeting the following week or so, I'd suggest we go
ahead with a meeting this weekend, and if we manage one next week also, hey,
that's cool!

Actually, I meant TRU value packs... They have a $29.95 one (Tie/Y-Wing +
Snowspeeder) and a $19.95 one (Sith Infiltrator + Naboo Swamp).

I'd love to see it also. We could watch it as an activity.

It's a real shame the 4561 is such a lame train (not that 4559 was that much
better - 4565 or 3225 are the only decent trains which have been available in
the past couple years). Probably the best bet if you don't mind giving her a
"custom" set is to scrounge up the various train bits from S@H service packs,
and hunting down a cheap controller and train motor.

So do I.
I've been making some very serious progress on sorting stuff. My pile of
not-huge sets is steadily diminishing. I've been processing about a copy paper
box worth of sets per evening, sometimes more. I might manage to catch up just
in time for the 2001 sets at Christmas...
