Yea, I looked at those when you announced them on some other lugnet group, very
cool!
From your pages you look to be Space fan. Me too, my main themes are Space,
Castle, and old-style Town, plus a little Technic since I got Mindstorms. :-)

I've had some good luck at the K-Mart at Mopac and Parmer. Their toy section is
usually in disarray, but I've found some bargains hidden in the piles. Last
time I checked (about 2 weeks ago) they had an opened but complete looking 5988
Pharaoh's Forbidden Ruins for 50% off. I've also found some other bargains
there in the last few years (2 Renegade Runners and ~ 4 Star Hawk II's). Since
I live up in NW Austin it's a short trip for me, I could post anything I see at
this K-Mart in this newsgroup if you'd like.
I've also found a few bargains at the K-Mart on the south end of 35, but their
normal selection sucks. I haven't been to the K-Mart on 35 north of Austin for
a while.
The NW TRU's Lego isle seemed smaller than the other TRU's around here... In
fact the whole store seemed smaller. Has anyone else noticed that or think
otherwise?
I'll update my Lego store shopping list and post the URL here.
