So far, the show layout track designs I've been messing with seem to call
for extra straights, so I may call upon your supply for a brief loan.  I'm
going to swing by LEGOland CA later this week to pick some up.  Anybody need
anything?

Ed,
Have fun at LL!  We'll all be cursing...er...Wishing you the best time. :)
I don't know what Xmas Promos they are running, but, If it's possible, and
you get an extra, maybe we could come up with an adequite trade/purchase
price for a Promo Brick?

One of those $6.00 Gift Box Sets would be nice as well, if you can manage...


I can manage, of course!  However, I've noticed that they may have made a
substitution in comparison to last year...see

If they still have any Green road plates available, I would like some of each
except curves.  Straights would be most useful to me.  If there is a sale on
Green baseplates, those might be handy, too.

Ohkee-doughkee.  I see Amazon has green baseplates for $5.24:

...and straights for $6.74:

...but I'll pick some up unless you stop me before Wednesday night, since it
appears that Amazon inflated prices before their reductions.


I placed an order from S@H this week and included 4 boxes of straight rails, so
that will help our layout a bit.  I can give you a new total count if you
need it, Ed.
Having extra track on hand for the show will be a good thing.  We might want
some from Wayne--and especially points.  I don't think we have heard if John
Rudy will be able to provide us some track or not.


Yup, Kev, I have...

Looks like we're in pretty good shape, but more is better :^)  My goal was
150 straights to get a double loop for a layout that's 12x16' or so.  Man, I
gotta post those TD layouts...

Did you get the reference photos for our building day "project"?
I've been doodling a few designs for other buildings in classes (Christmas
Break, T minus 3 days and counting), so I'm working out ideas.

BTW, while I'm posting, Walmart in Fairmount and TRU in Dewitt both have
2003 LEGO...Sparse, but there...

I purchased the Johnny Thunder River Boat Set for kicks, they had the
elephant and tiger sets at TRU as well...
My Mom told me about Fairmount, so I don't know what they had, but I think
she said Star Wars...

(...) Oh, man...the gift box set is uninspired, especially compared to last year. I overheard some Moms complaining about it. I was too embarassed to take a picture of the actual set, and I wanted to avoid looking like this was something cool that I (...) (22 years ago, 20-Dec-02, to lugnet.org.us.lucny)
