Found in East Windsor, CT: 2554, 2556, 2543 (UFO Zipper), and a
medium-sized Belville set (forgot number). The attendant said "lots more
are coming in."
Something worth pointing out: since these are new Americanized boxes, there
are now official part counts for these sets. Right now, I can only remember
the part count for the 2556 is 580 pieces (an amazing deal for $25).
Die-hard completist-collectors (you know who you are) will also want to make
sure they grab these Americanized boxes because of the different text and
copyright information on the sides of the boxes. In other words, a Space
collector truist would want both the non-US and US version of 2543 because
their boxes are different. And they are indeed going fast, thanks in large
part to:
