  Re: Brad Justus...
 
(...) The one thing I think people are missing is this. TLC must be careful not to make the Bulk ordering too easy for the consumer.

I don't know, the boxes and instructions had Hasbro on them with a 3 figure set number so in your case I don't think I can help. If someone can help me get an ASP server I'll (...)
