Crikes, you're in a perfectly good part of Ontario,and you drive across the
Ambassador / through the tunnel everyday to work in Detroit? Strange folks, you
are.

Well, if you need a Snowspeeder, I can bring one from my Ames haul with me when
I'm back in Detroit in two weeks. ;) Those I had little trouble finding, and I'm
glad because they have very useful parts for my naval construction.
By the way, I stopped into a ZB yesterday, and not only did they have the MF
(which I haven't bought, it's US$90, but I will act as a proxy if people in, say,
Oz need one RIGHT NOW), but apparently the Mos Espa Podrace 7171 is now clearanced
at $50. I'm not sure if this applies to all ZBs, but I'd be shocked if it didn't.
And, of course, they had no soccer buses.
