Yay! S@H should have them hopefully. 8464(8459) is going to be popular. I
could not figure out the original number of the gas station. Any help?

May be they just got enough mails. I guess they pick those sets because they
are new enough so that the current molding and sorting process can still make
them easily. They may also pick them base on their internal marketing numbers.
Their aggreement with Lucas may keep them from re-releasing space sets.
Now if they are going to take vote, 8880, 5571 and 6080 would be on the top of
my list.
