Hey Guys,

I went in TRU in Moncton NB, and bought one (with two stripes) and I asked my
daughter to sort the pieces and here is what I got:

Neddles to say that I'm very pleased. AND only 3 pieces were new dark bluish
grey, all the rest were regular light and dark grey.  {;^D

On a funny note, I bought a first one and opened it right away, and there were 5
identical bags of bricks which I didn't like, so I went bak to TRU and told them
that I didn't like the bonus pieces and I want to exchange it...They accepted!

I wish I had more dough to buy much more...

Which should make the 2714 tub (...) (22 years ago, 30-Oct-04, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.org.ca.parlugment, lugnet.loc.ca, lugnet.market.shopping)
