MegaBlocks Snoopy and Woodstock set?

  I apologize for the off-brand discussion leaking into the main LEGO area,
but has anyone seen the new Snoopy and Woodstock MegaBlocks sets in stores
yet?  I've seen the pictures of the set in the Snoopy Etc. catalog, and it
looks like Snoopy and Woodstock are built out of fairly generic bricks.  So
I'm going to break down and buy one set for the directions, and then redo it
in LEGO (as much as possible).

  Unfortunately, the Snoopy Etc. catalog prices are always exhorbitantly high,
so if I can avoid them I want to.  Has this set shown up in anyone's TRU,
Target, Wal-Mart, Kmart, etc. yet?

  Thanks for any info you can provide!  (BTW, the emoticon in my sig is
Snoopy!  I designed him for a contest in one of the Snoopy mailing lists that
I subscribe to.  Cute, eh?  :^)

OK, I know it's poor form to follow-up your own post, but I did find the set at an on-line store. Here is a link to the page with a picture: (URL) would still like to see this in person in a brick-and-mortar store first, though. Any info? Anyone? (...)

(...) I have this magazine and was planning to put up a scan of it tonight. Since you posted the link to a pic in another message I'll save myself the trouble. Anyway, I think I'm going to try to build one myself from the pics. Ben Roller (24 years ago, 7-Jun-00, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

If the seller hasn't removed the picture you can see it at (URL). When I saw the picture, I had the same idea as you-- it would be fun to get the instructions and try to build them out of LEGO.

(...) Long time no talk, Ray! I found your Snoopy Mega Bloks sets at the Toys R Us on Winchester Blvd. in San Jose today. They have 7 of them for $24.99 each. Russell (24 years ago, 10-Jun-00, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
