|
| (...) I've been working on a Cloud Car alternate model, and it's not as easy as it looks... there are a lot of great pieces but not enough basic pieces (bricks and plates) to make much of anything that doesn't look a lot like a Cloud Car... :-( At (...)

| | | | | Target update: Redwood City CA
|
| I visited the Redwood City Target today, and they are still at 50% off, and all they have left (that I could find anyway) is the Arctic value packs. I bought one of them at $4.90, but they have a large stack of maybe 30 or so of them on an end (...) (23 years ago, 16-Jan-02, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf, lugnet.org.us.baylug)

|
| (...) That's pretty much the picture at the Targets I've visited in Redwood City and San Mateo. San Mateo had some RoboRiders, which I thought had been gone for a long time. Also I've seen some of the Dinosaurs for 50% off. The soccer sets (not the (...) (23 years ago, 12-Jan-02, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf, lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.org.us.baylug)

| A survey of the new catalog shows the clear winner in the parts-per-dollar metric: #7119 Twin-Pod Cloud Car, 117 pieces for $9.99. Then again, with all the die-hard train fans, maybe I should enter something based on #4519! :) (...) (23 years ago, 8-Jan-02, to lugnet.org.us.baylug, lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)
