Dave,

I saw these at Wal-Mart in Stow Ohio Wednesday for $9.97 each. They had a whole
pallet of these on display. I would have bought one if I had had the cash...
Maybe next week.

Here's another cool-looking model.

Cool, I like it (Hydroplane).  The other new Pro set I've seen locally is a
pretty neat little $10 jet fighter, called simply "Jet Fighter."

I own a few of that kit--for the price, it's superior to any aircraft
model LEGO has produced recently, although parts of the design are a little
weak.  Here are a few sightings of new kits, apparently marketed as "Mega
Modelz" instead of, or in addition to, "Pro-Builder:"

These auctions aren't mine, I don't know the sellers, and I don't intend
to bid on them.  I anticipate that the list prices of these items will be
lower than the opening bids, so I need only be patient (I hope) until they
arrive locally.  Of course, these new kits don't yet appear in my most
recent catalogs, nor on the website.

(...) what can be done with basic bricks (remember when LEGO used those?). I don't have a piece breakdown yet, but with ~545 parts for $9.97 I'm not complaining. I'll post a more elaborate review soon. There's a new Harley kit I haven't seen yet, (...) (23 years ago, 30-Oct-01, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
