I was getting ready to pop and throw away all of my huge Rapid Fill bags, then I figured out how they work. That thin strip of plastic that sticks out through the seam in the bag is the key. There is a penny-sized hole at the end of the strip that (...) (24 years ago, 30-Nov-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)

Does anyone know where I can get the following sets (preferably retail, but if anyone has extras and is willing to sell them without a rediculous markup, I'm all ears). Thanks in advance. 1271, 5906, 5911, 5912, 5913, 5914 Justin (24 years ago, 30-Nov-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)

These were all on sale for $67. This isn't a huge discount, but 5987 is a fairly new set, so I think this is pretty good. This was in Orange County, CA. I assume that it is nation-wide. The sale goes until 12/2. (24 years ago, 30-Nov-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) 20 Buckets fit nicely (without *any* packaging) into 3 tubs, with space left over.... There's where the waste starts - original packaging at LEGO. Perhaps EToys is just continuing the LEGO practice. -Jon (24 years ago, 29-Nov-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)

The nice thing about the buckets ONCE YOU HAVE THEM, is that you can compact 2.5 buckets into one, so those 40 will end up being 16 buckets. And if you just throw them in a cardboard box, you can cram them into a decently small box. I still have 16 (...) (24 years ago, 29-Nov-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)
