(...) Mine had it on sale (or Rollback, or whatever) for $7.88. It's not a terrible set, with 200 pieces, but it's not great. The main body of the bike, as well as the front fork and whatever the back "fork" is called are each one-piece elements, (...) (22 years ago, 27-Feb-03, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

(...) The Wal*Mart near the north of Pittsburgh had four in the clearance aisle, but they were still ringing up @ $14.88. When I bought my copy a few weeks ago, I think they had about a dozen. Dave! (22 years ago, 27-Feb-03, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

Also included are some of the rough-hewn 2x4 bricks and possibly (...) (22 years ago, 25-Feb-03, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
