  Re: Anyone home?
 
I'm in Poquoson right now, for college, I'm in Harrisonburg at JMU. Washington DC? I don't even have the car to go there. So what do you think? HRMALUG (Harm a lug? Hampton Roads Metro Area Lego Users Group) or SEVALUG (Save a lug? Southeastern (...) (26 years ago, 10-Jul-00, to lugnet.loc.us.va.new, lugnet.loc.us.va.nor)
 
  Re: Anyone home?
 
(...) Cool, we'll be over tonite, Nathan. Buy a keg. :-) But seriously folks, why the heck not? There's at least three of us. Does that count as a LUG? We could probably come up with enough Pirate ships to have a game or two, at least. SteveC (...) (26 years ago, 7-Jul-00, to lugnet.loc.us.va.new)
 
  Re: Anyone home?
 
(...) Well, I'm close, but I'm in Norfolk. =) Let's start a LUG down here in Tidewater, driving 3 hours to DC for WAMALUG kinda bites... =) ~Nathan (26 years ago, 6-Jul-00, to lugnet.loc.us.va.new)
 
  Re: Anyone home?
 
(...) Well, not everyone, but this group gets so little use i hardly check it anymore. So, how the heck are you? And where? I'm in Denbigh, about equal distance between Denbigh HS and Menchville HS. I collect Pirates, Adventurers, Res-Q, and Star (...) (26 years ago, 6-Jul-00, to lugnet.loc.us.va.new)
 
  Anyone home?
 
Hello- I'm Chris Fortier, and this is my local area group. I was just wondering if anyone has looked at this board in nine months...maybe everyone has just shipped off to Norfolk...oh well! (26 years ago, 3-Jul-00, to lugnet.loc.us.va.new)
 
  Advent Calendars @ NN TRU
 
Newport News TRU has a bunch of Advent Calendars. They are not on the regular LEGO shelf, they are on the facing shelf closer to the front of the store, near the stuffed animals. They also had 8448 Super Street Sensation for $129. SteveC Perilous (...) (27 years ago, 22-Sep-99, to lugnet.loc.us.va.new)

Also, I'd like to see more amazonian natives (though a return of the Islanders sub-theme of Pirates would be even better).

Of course, this doesn't take into account the relative value of (...) (27 years ago, 3-Jun-99, to lugnet.loc.us.va.new, lugnet.market.theory)
 
  Cost per piece?
 
Heya one and all... Newport News resident and first time poster here. A couple of weeks ago, Frank Filz mentioned something about a set and said it "makes the 10 cents a piece". What does that mean? What is considered a good price for a set? Based (...) (27 years ago, 2-Jun-99, to lugnet.loc.us.va.new)
 
  Speeder Bikes at Big K! 20% 0ff!
 
Big K at Warwick and Oriana (or Old Oriana, can't remember which.) Just left there (1pm 4/29) and there were probably 20 boxes of Speeder Bikes. But here's the catch, they weren't in the LEGO aisle. They were two aisles over (one aisle off the wall) (...) (27 years ago, 29-Apr-99, to lugnet.loc.us.va.new)
 
  SW at BigK!
 
The Big K at the corner of Warwick and Oriana (next to Hill's and Discovery Zone) had 5 Speeder Bikes last night (Tuesday). Four of them are now tucked behind a Countdown Corner next to the Megablocks buckets. Good Luck! (27 years ago, 21-Apr-99, to lugnet.loc.us.va.new)

  SW at KMart again! Well, kind of...
 
On a whim i dropped by the Tabb Super K. It was my anniversary and my wife wanted to get me more SW LEGO but couldn't find any. Among the squeezed-down-to-les...aisle-side LEGO section I found ONE Snowspeeder. I'm happy, but I'm sure you guys (...) (27 years ago, 14-Apr-99, to lugnet.loc.us.va.new)
 
  Visit including Lego Shopping in the Newport News & Wider Area
 
I just got back from a weekend in Newport News and Williamsburg. I stopped at TRU in Chessepeake, Newport News, and Hampton. At both of Chessepeake and Hampton, I found a bunch of older Lego (with the widest selection at Hampton). The big find was (...) (27 years ago, 12-Apr-99, to lugnet.loc.us.va.new)
 
  Dang! Missed Again!
 
Thanks Steve, but I missed again! (At Super K).... Dang! I'll keep trying.... and thanks for your 'mini' review on the SW Speeder Bikes. **Maria** (27 years ago, 7-Apr-99, to lugnet.loc.us.va.new)
 
  SW not at KMart!
 
Sorry gang, went last night to take advantage of the buy 1 get 2nd for 50% off sale and no Star Wars. Keep looking! SteveC Perilous Pirate Page (URL) (27 years ago, 30-Mar-99, to lugnet.loc.us.va.new)
 
  SW at KMart!
 
Tabb SuperK had SW on Friday night. I was on my way out of town (the Big K in Kill Devil Hills, NC had them too) and stopped in for some travel supplies. Got the Speeder Bikes. Very cool set. No true hand weapons for the scout troopers, tho. There (...) (27 years ago, 29-Mar-99, to lugnet.loc.us.va.new)
 
  Re: Any SW in VA?
 
"Maria W. Campbell" zapped: (...) I went in last night (3/22) and even the shelf stickers were gone! I guess I can't rely on the TRU info from TRU people, either. She said that the trucks would be in on Thursday and they showed up on Wednesday. Good (...) (27 years ago, 23-Mar-99, to lugnet.loc.us.va.new)
 
  Re: Any SW in VA?
 
(...) Thanks for the info. TRU in NN did have a <small> shipment on the 16th... but I didn't know it. The Star War Lego sets sold out in less than 20 mins. (a stockgirl told me) on the 17th when they were just put out! That really jerked my chain (...) (27 years ago, 23-Mar-99, to lugnet.loc.us.va.new)
