(LOL) I dread to think...
Regardless, there's a good chance I can't make it (Friday, after all... my
significant other would probably lodge a significant protest. She's a lot
tougher than she looks)
However...

As it turns out, Technic is about the only line from TLC where I leave the
original models assembled as is (Also the larger Model Team ones, but I
digress. No, you don't want my model team stuff... it's even dustier than my F-
15 was. But dusty technic looks okay, mostly because it's thin girders as
opposed to large surface areas)
Assembled Technic I never disassembled:
Red Technic Test car
http://www.lugnet.com/pause/search/?query=8865
Red Technic motorcycle from a few years ago (can't remember the name or number)
All 3 Star Wars droids (minus pit droid tools; I have no idea if the set was
missing those parts or if my cats ran off with them, so I never called Lego
for replacements.) I built the Destroyer Droid incorrectly (it LOOKS right,
but doesn't properly spring open... so you can use it for display purposes but
not for a functional demo. This is the first set I ever screwed up
functionally ... I can't WAIT to disassemble it all and start again.)
Yellow Pontoon plane -- for personal reasons I really don't want this one to
be a 'hands on' display, but it can quietly sit somewhere.
Model Team: only the white Highway Rig (VERY dusty) which I'm just starting on
making a double-width minifig scale version of. (btw, the real reason for the
scale I chose is that it's to the same rough scale most of the Star Wars line
is in, using the 2 seater LandSpeeder as a starting point. Not some strange
aversion to road plates)

I doubt I'll be there, but I can certainly leave a number these sets in the
care of either Dean and Alex, or Bryan (mostly because they're the only ones I
know who live conveniently close to myself)
Oh, also the UCS X-Wing (Dave and Bryan both have one also).
Optimus is sturdy enough if he's left as a truck; otherwise he's fairly
fragile (I'm work on that later). And the big F-15 Eagle looks good next to
the X-Wing, hint hint.
Keep me posted about what you'd need.

| Hi all, Beware, this is a loooong post. But good, I hope! (...) For those that are confused, this is our regular monthly "private" get together event. (...) I thought Dean would address this. I'll know he'll add more when he gets the info. (...) (26 years ago, 11-Sep-00, to lugnet.org.ca.vlc)
