Hi, I was at the St. Jacob's Outlet Mall on Wednesday and pickins are pretty slim at the LEGO Outlet. The only things that I saw that might be worthy of a trip are the Gungan Sub co-pack for $39.99 and if you look at the sales counter very closely, (...)

(...) The only reason for the add'l module in the middle is to accomodate the fire station. I can't think of where else to put it. It's 2 road plates deep. But if we nix the firestation, that won't be too big a problem either. Dave K (21 years ago, 10-Apr-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
