I almost popped out of the moving car as we pulled into the gas station and
I saw the sign showing these sets.
I had never seen these sets before and they are pretty decent town sets
(when LEGO provides no regular town sets any more) and pretty reasonable
prices.
I hope to go gas up the other car tomorrow and get some more of these. I
hope my local AFOL "buddies" don't snap them up first!
