This is something I've been debating about.  The only 2004 sets I've bought so
far are the x-pods.  They are just way too cool to pass up, new color or no.  I
have not integrated them into the rest of my collection though.  I've kind of
started a separate "x" collection. hehe

I've been bugging stores in my area to find out when these will be in stock.  So
far I'm being told April at the earliest.  I am giddy about these little things.
They just look like so much fun.

Am I crazy to think that kids will appreciate not only the 'kid' factor that has
been clearly built into them, but also the low price point?

Best regards,
Allan B.
