It says:

  "Sorry, item is not available in this country."

What are they?

They are sets of basic bricks (no motors) which let you build some
interesting things. One is insects with long hinged legs (I think, hard to
tell from the photos), there are two robot sets, one with a lot of cool
looking blue bits (Eric?), two sets of vehicles.

They are listed in the Lego magazine which my daughter just received, and
it caught my eye. Not listed at Amazon, but I googled and found these:

http://www.brickset.com/search.aspx?Theme=Designer%20Set

Robobots: http://www.brickset.com/search.aspx?Set=4099-1
Creatures: http://www.brickset.com/search.aspx?Set=4101-1
Mini Robobots: http://www.brickset.com/search.aspx?Set=4097-1

and here http://www.fbtb.net/ny2003/ then search on 4099, 4100, etc.

If you want me to buy some here (when available) and forward them to you,
let me know.

Bruce
