Hey... Marcia and I are driving down to Georgia to check out the Lego outlet today (among other things). While our budget is not limitless, if there are a thing or two that you want, give us a call in the next 30-45 minutes or so at 583-0394. They (...) (26 years ago, 19-Feb-00, to lugnet.loc.us.tn.knx)

The Target at Downtown West has most all of the 2000 sets, notably missing only the two largest - King Leo's Castle and the Falcon. I really liked the new minifigs, but all of the sets looked a little juniorized to me. Naji (...) (27 years ago, 16-Dec-99, to lugnet.loc.us.tn.knx, lugnet.market.shopping)
