Hi.

Does anyone have a source for foam balls similar to those found in
Robosports? There are foam balls listed in the Pitsco catalogue,
but they claim to be three inches in diameter which is way larger
than the foam balls in the Pitsco cataolgue. Supposeably, the
Lego League is using foam balls acquired from a magic store, but
they bought out their stock.

Also, does anyone know of a LEGO add-on kit with the large
blue pneumatic cylindars? Pneumatics II costs $100.00, but
all I want is the pneumatic components.

Does anyone else feel particularly frustrated by the picture
on the back of the RIS 1.5 box with the pneumatic add-ons?
