(...) I agree. I hope those within driving range will at least drop by at some point to see it and tell the store how interested they are to see the feature added.

(...) Scott L. told me they were. I have to check when I get home but the bags are a lot bigger than the grab bag bags I've seen before. Volumetrically the bag, which is much longer than it is wide, when stuffed, resembles a cylinder or lozenge that (...) (20 years ago, 8-Sep-04, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.loc.ca)

(...) It's not generally available yet, if you mean the 4+ Jack Stone pirate range. Classic Pirates went on clearance in 1998 and have been "resting" since then.

(...) Odd...I swore I saw them at K-Mart just last week, in the US. I am almost positive they are available here. LEGO has pretty much ended doing "US-only"/"Europe only" sets outside of promotional sets. (20 years ago, 7-Sep-04, to lugnet.market.shopping)
