|
| A couple weeks back I posted a pretty critical but not mean-spirited (IMHO) critique of the mall tour as it passed near me (reference message Dear Lego n=2518). I was then contacted by Jeff Ardis the tour manager by e-mail. He stated that indeed (...)

It has been mentioned that we'd prefer adults (mainly for liability and some other reasons), though we've had at least one meeting with a minor. By the same token, we (...)

| Northern Utah Wal-Mart stores have now begun their LEGO clearance. Most sets are around 25% off but a few Ninja sets went straight to 50%. Shopko is still at the 50% phase and should drop to 75% or more in the next 10 days. Meanwhile, Target is due (...) (26 years ago, 11-Jul-00, to lugnet.org.us.wafol)

| The Murray TRU had the buckets, too--and most of the "new for summer" sets, too. Now, how do I go about justifying 250 bucks (UCS:TIE=$100 + UCS:XWING=$150) for little piles of plastic?! I also noticed the new "Toolo" sets. They're called Action (...) (26 years ago, 8-Jul-00, to lugnet.org.us.wafol)
