  Re: 2001 Lego avail. in Syracuse!!
 
(...) Although I haven't been on a rampage in a L-O-N-G time, I am intimately familiar with the "bills" problem...lol My car insurance, rent, utilities, etc. have all risen significantly (yet another reason to leave syr).

  Minifig mercenaries and modern weapons...
 
(...) I ran across a small bag of "infantry weapons" that were packed away with some Space/Aquazone models. I remember designing a few of them after seeing Swarzenegger's Predator on Laser disc at a relative's house many years ago. Some of the (...) (26 years ago, 27-Nov-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ny.syr)
 
  LEGO on LI
 
I'm going to be on Long Island for business, again, this week. Is there any must see activities thereabouts for an AFOL? Would any of the natives be interested in getting together for dinner this week? Thanks, Gino A... (from the boonies, Ohio that (...) (26 years ago, 27-Nov-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ny.ny)
 
  Re: 2001 Lego avail. in Syracuse!!
 
Thanks for the info, I was there today just looking around. I think I have had it with spending money for a long time. I was on a rampage the last 5 months with Lego and now I need to watch it because I have more bills. I'm also a little P.O'd with (...) (26 years ago, 24-Nov-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ny.syr)

  Re: cheap 7191 & 7181 ?
 
David, I DO live in NYC. There is a TRU at Union Square with the sale specified by Ken. There is also a TRU at 34th Street & 5th ave. (I am sure they have the sale, but haven't been there). Both are easy to get to by subway. There are other TRU's in (...) (26 years ago, 22-Nov-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ny.ny)
 
  Re: cheap 7191 & 7181 ?
 
(...) David, I don't live in NY, but I will point out that TRU(1) has both sets on sale right now (7181: $79.99 @ 7191: $119.99). However, your girlfriend will have to hurry - the sale ends tomorrow (11/22). Can someone in the NY area tell David the (...) (26 years ago, 22-Nov-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ny.ny)
 
  cheap 7191 & 7181 ?
 
Hi, Sorry to barge in your local group, but I was hoping for some help. My girl friend is visiting NY and since I'm stuck here in Israel with very poor sources of LEGO, I asked her to get me <set:7191> or <set:7181>. Since she doesn't have an (...)

  Re: Ref visit to new york
 
What part of NY? I can tell you about NY City. In Manhattan the custom is to charge 10% more than usual for Lego. The major chain stores to get it are Toys R Us, Kmart, Bradlees, and the lesser stores are KB Toys (20% markup!), Zany Brainy, maybe (...)

  Re: 9735 Robotics set at BJ's Wholesale
 
(...) Doesn't BJs generally buy overstocks and such? If so, then maybe it's *good* that you're not seeing that much LEGO there, because that means that it's actually selling... J (26 years ago, 5-Nov-00, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.loc.us.ny.syr)
 
  Re: Anybody seen the Chrome Knights?
 
So far, I've checked 2 KayBee stores (one regular, one ToyWorks), and not found them here in western Ohio. I did find them at 1 of the 3 Meijers stores I checked, but I don't think that Meijers has extended its reach to upstate NY yet, has it? Paul (...) (26 years ago, 5-Nov-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ny.syr)

  Anybody seen the Chrome Knights?
 
I know they are available through Shop at Home, but I will have to wait til I am ordering some more items to make the shipping worth it...lol I would just like to see these Knight's Kingdom Chrome Promo sets in person.

  Re: Meet Saturday Nov 11: Ambler PA
 
You might also consider bringing items to trade into the *LUG box you will hopefully have for the meeting. LUGOLA will be shipping it out to you first, so have fun with it! I can't even speculate what will be in there yet, but I can tell you that my (...) (26 years ago, 31-Oct-00, to lugnet.org.us.gardenslug, lugnet.loc.us.ny, lugnet.loc.us.nj, lugnet.loc.us.pa)

  Re: New meeting date: Sat Oct 21
 
I understand it's tough for you to drop by, Lindsay. Oct 21 was a non-event. It happened to be competing with the World Series too. Stay tuned for Ambler, Nov 11. Speaking of which, since Cletus isn't on Lugnet there are no instructions up here (...)
