| | | | | Re: Run, don't walk!
|
| (...) Yeah, it's a nationwide thing. I think they put the special packs on the shelves back in summer sometime. There's also a TRU exclusive with the Gungan Sub and a couple of the small sets. ~Grand Admiral Muffin Head (23 years ago, 15-Nov-01, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.loc.us.tx, lugnet.loc.us.tx.hou)

| Hi. I just moved to central texas from california about 2 months ago. I am finally settled in and was touring the locals. Thought i would chime in. I am about 45 minutes south of fort worth, near a little town called Hillsboro. I havent been real (...) (23 years ago, 14-Jul-01, to lugnet.loc.us.tx.hou)

|
| (...) Local groups are tough in that respect... I only check my own loc group(s) once very few weeks... there's usually either a ton going on, or nothing at all. :-/ Depends on the season, I guess... -Shiri (23 years ago, 12-Jun-01, to lugnet.loc.us.tx.hou)

| | | | | Turaga
|
| Jeez, this section moves slow. Anyway, has anyone seen Turaga available in Houston, especially around the Missouri City area? (23 years ago, 6-Jun-01, to lugnet.loc.us.tx.hou)

|
| The subject says it all. They had seven or eight last night (just be sure to leave me a couple - I haven't bought any yet ;^) For what its worth, I've found the Telephone Rd. K-Mart to be the best place in town for finding bargains. (I once got 2 (...) (23 years ago, 2-Apr-01, to lugnet.loc.us.tx.hou)
| | | | | RE: Hello...
|
| 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 (...) (23 years ago, 27-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.us.tx.hou)
| | | | | Re: Hello...
|
| 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 (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.us.tx.hou)
| | | | | Re: Hello...
|
| (...) 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 (...)
