The Zany in Schaumburg had them also. I picked one up on friday night. I have it about 50% complete. While I have some minor complaints about the set, I think this is one of their best.

Just checked out FBTB. There's a pic on the main page showing the SW minifig sets (2nd series). The pic of Chewie and Biker Scouts show the wookie holding a black crossbow! That's cool! I heard that he wasn't gonna have his Bowcaster. -Chris (24 years ago, 27-May-00, to lugnet.starwars)
