(...) I guess I'm a lego sucker....because I bought a plain blue one for that... ($30). I know a few more people that would appreciate a "free" soccer ball. I already have a ball from the "Blue BUS/Ball pack" Ben (23 years ago, 20-Feb-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Actually, it is that bad. The first ball is cute. The second, well you can give to a friend. The third and fourth are utterly useless. $29 for a hundred or so pieces is a ripoff, no matter how you cut it :) Calum (23 years ago, 20-Feb-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
