  Tie Fighter, Mindstorms at South TRU
 
Hey, The south Austin TRU has 7-8 copies of the Tie Fighter/Y-Wing in stock, in with the "impulse"/hot buys near the entrance (NOT in the regular Lego section). They also have one Mindstorms RIS in the computer software section (again, not in the (...) (27 years ago, 21-Apr-99, to lugnet.loc.us.tx.aus)
 
  Re: Star Wars anywhere in Austin?
 
(...) Last I check was when the initial shipments were received at the Wal-Marts. The only sets left afterward were some landspeeders and speeder bikes at the 183/35 Wal-Mart. (27 years ago, 9-Apr-99, to lugnet.loc.us.tx.aus)

  Re: Wal-Mart off of 183 (north central austin) has!!!!
 
(...) Well, they had them... :-) Both the 183/35 Wal-Mart and the 620 Super Wal-Mart have Speeder Bikes and Land Speeders. We (coworkers and I) bought 2 X-Wings, 1 Tie Fighter/Y-Wing, and 2 Snow Speeders, which they now appear to be out of. (...) (27 years ago, 15-Mar-99, to lugnet.loc.us.tx.aus)
 
  Wal-Mart off of 183 (north central austin) has!!!!
 
I just checked it out 30 mins ago. They hadn't put the new lots of throwbots on the shelves and they had one shopping cart with 3 x wings and two Tie / Y wing sets. I picked up i xwing and one ywing. I think that they may have more that they had not (...) (27 years ago, 15-Mar-99, to lugnet.loc.us.tx.aus)
 
  Checked 620 Wal-Mart, negative
 
I checked the 620 Super Wal-Mart today, no Star Wars sets. Since the Star Wars Lego ads appeared I always find people (kids and adults) in the Lego isle hunting for them. Looks like local Austin demand will be high. But.... My mom found the Speeder (...) (27 years ago, 15-Mar-99, to lugnet.loc.us.tx.aus)
 
  Re: An organized search for Star War sets? -- none on south I-35
 
(...) I've found a few good buys there right after Christmas (some really cheap Wild West and polybags), they were hidden away in the toy clearance isle. I agree with you, tho, their selection sucks. :-) (27 years ago, 14-Mar-99, to lugnet.loc.us.tx.aus)
 
  Re: Checked a few places, no Star Wars sets
 
(...) I checked the TRU at 183 and 620, negative. I called the Mopac/360 TRU, they said they didn't have them in yet (person on the phone seemed somewhat clueless, didn't think they were getting them in until after Episode 1). (27 years ago, 14-Mar-99, to lugnet.loc.us.tx.aus)
 
  Re: RTLers Big Names
 
(...) The 4 new Throwbots are in the Wal-Mart stores now. (27 years ago, 14-Mar-99, to lugnet.loc.us.tx.aus)
