I haven't been to Walmart in a bit, but last time I went to Winners near
my house, the selection was rather weak...they had just moved their Lego
around for the third time this year. Their HP sets are over priced, but
they do have a unusually large assortment of Technic off-shoots (small
technic sets like the mini-bike, Robo-spinners, etc)
I have been quite selective with the sets there picking up a bit of sets
from the studio line. I took the liberty of buying another movie backdrop
set for $25 CDN on clearance. I didn't think that was too bad of a deal.
A bunch of decently useful pieces (over 200), a motor, wire, and long
battery box (AA).
