On a side note, at COSTCO, they are selling an actual chest (18"x18"x36"
{approx}) of Dragons for just under $80. The set includes 9879 (Vorgan Ice Fang)
and 9889 (Portal of Fire). I thought it was a cool promo and had the Mrs. get it
for me for my B-day (still some days away now). (I'm not allowed to touch it
till it is my B-day.)
I myself will be on the look out for the sets mentioned above... and will let
you know if I see them in the D.C. area.
C-ya,
Rich
