I've been to this store twice, while on business trips. Mike has it mostly
right, though I'm not sure if it qualifies as a full LIC. It carries Scala
as well as Bellville. Last time I was there, they had a wide selection of
Robotics sensors (none on sale)
There are 3 or 4 'play tables', from which some interesting parts can be
gleaned (they turn a blind towards this activity)
The clearance stuff tends to be non-set stuff, such as pencils, plastic
boxes of candy shaped like shields (I like the Wolfpack one), and
accessories (hair clips, duffel bags) from the Scala line.
If you are going to Chicago anyway, it is worth a visit - look at the
girders on top of the large skyscraper building!
It is located in downtown Chicago, about 4 or 5 blocks north of the river,
inside the Loop. Use one of the map sites to find it - I think it is 800
Michigan Ave.
Have fun!
