There are more of us here, but we don't post very much. My wife and I moved to Austin last summer from LUGNET heavy Knoxville, Tennessee. While it is nice to have a local community, it's also refreshing to not have to compete with Mike Stanley and (...) (24 years ago, 29-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.us.tx.aus)

Sorry about the double reply, but I think this message is still in lugnet.loc.us.tx.aus, and not Texas wide. (...) (24 years ago, 29-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.us.tx.aus)

Hi guys. There doesn't seem to be much response to the Austin-level dig, so I'm going one level up and try state-wide. We'll see what we end up with. I can't believe I'm the only LUGNET member in Austin! There's bound to be more. Peace, Pat (24 years ago, 29-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.us.tx.aus)

(...) I live in College Station (halfway between Austin and Houston). I wouldn't mind going in either direction to get together with other lego enthusiasts! I know there are others in these regions... Tom (24 years ago, 27-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.us.tx.aus)

Yep, the Technic pickin's are definitely slim. In addition to eBay you might be able to find a few sets on Brickbay. <shameless plug> I'll have a few listed for sale in my own shop there soon, I hope. </shameless plug> Doug (...) (24 years ago, 27-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.us.tx.hou)

So, what is the local Lego User Group for Austin? I've been in Austin since August 2000, I am 33 years old, and love building with LEGO. Just now starting to dabble with trains. Wondering if there are actual LEGO groups that get together and (...) (24 years ago, 26-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.us.tx.aus)

I'm actually in Austin, but situation is the same. No real Technic sets anywhere (except for the Silver Champion at ToysRUs for full price). My best luck has been E-Bay. Just about any set you want is there. I'd suggest you watch awhile and look at (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.us.tx.hou)

(...) My experience has been that K-Mart and KB-Toys are best for finding cheap and/or old Lego. Regarding, Technic, virtually the only sets that seem to be shelved these days are the Robo Riders, or, as you said, the perenially discounted Cyper (...)
