In case anyone interested in such things hasn't been to FBTB recently: Tim announced both on the front page. Haven't seen any pictures yet unless they're buried in a discussion thread there that I missed. UCS Snowspeeder due out in November. (...) (21 years ago, 12-Sep-03, to lugnet.starwars) !

(...) Well, they *are* a discount retailer... Can't expect them to necessarily carry the big ticket items. Although, that being said, the Zeller's in my part ofthe work carry the expensive sets. (UCS Yoda, Hogwarts Castle, Chamber of Secrets). I've (...) (21 years ago, 11-Sep-03, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.loc.ca)

(...) Zellers just plain SUCK when it comes to Lego. Even more so since MegaSuk appeared. I have yet to see even ONE Zellers carry a large set ($100 or higher) of ANY Lego theme. (21 years ago, 11-Sep-03, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.loc.ca)

Well, after finally finding the Hailfire Drois at TRU in Yonge St in downtown TO, I called S@H and added teh MINI's to my outstanding order for 4502 and 10123. Yes, this can be done. I ordered 10123 when it was available, then called and added 4502 (...) (21 years ago, 11-Sep-03, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.loc.ca)

I was contacted by a Dutch Star Wars fan club, the Echo Base Foundation about possibly donating some MOCs to their charity con later this month. This year, the Make a Wish Foundation will be the beneficiary of all profits generated by the event. (...) (21 years ago, 11-Sep-03, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.general, lugnet.space, FTX) !

(...) Heat was my first suspect as well, however what possible source of heat is there in the center of the top of a modern fridge? The lightbulb inside? maybe it's not going out when I close the door! :) And how hot would it have to get to fuse (...) (21 years ago, 11-Sep-03, to lugnet.starwars, FTX)

(...) I would lay strong odds that it's related to temperature fluctuations; perhaps a 'hot spot' on the top of the fridge. Certainly it isn't because of weight. For well over 6 months, I had a 26 pound Battlestar Galactica frame sitting on it's end (...) (21 years ago, 10-Sep-03, to lugnet.starwars, FTX)

Last year, several people in my office, including me, went together to place two big orders both well over 99 dollars. That way everyone gets free (...)

(...) They had all the new minis at a TRU in Ottawa in early July. I've also seen a few in various Toronto TRUs and the price tags for them at a few Walmarts, but no sets.... aside from a few MTT sets. The only place I've seen a hailfire at a Sears (...) (21 years ago, 8-Sep-03, to lugnet.starwars)
