  A little help getting a new EpII set...
 
Hi there. Hate to ask a favor of my fellow LUGNETters, but... I'm hearing reports over at From Bricks to Bothans [(URL) the new Star Wars Episode II sets are being mistakenly put out for sale early by many Walmarts across the country. I'm in need of (...)

  Wal-Mart, Ep II sets, and so forth.
 
(...) Hey Brendan (and all): Yeah, I've found these EpII sets here in Jersey. But alas, no 7103s--the set I wanted most of all! (Waaah, etc.) Today was Bounty Hunter Pursuit day for me. However, if I find one, it's yours, Brendan (and at a smaller (...) (22 years ago, 23-Mar-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Re: A little help getting a new EpII set... UPDATE
 
UPDATE! Somone has very kindly stepped forward to help me out. So if you find any 7103's at your local Walmarts, please, just enjoy them for yourselves. If you absolutely feel the need to send them to me, though, that would also be acceptable. @8^) (...) (22 years ago, 24-Mar-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.general)

(...) LFB -- If you don't mind my asking, what section of Jersey are you in? I've checked five Wal-Marts in central and south Jersey the past few days and came up completely empty handed. Thanks, in advance . . . . -Jonathan (22 years ago, 25-Mar-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) Piscataway, NJ; North Brunswick, NJ. Both are now cleared out, but I scored at both on Saturday and Friday. (I think the No Bruns has Spider-Man sets yet, though.) best LFB (22 years ago, 25-Mar-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) Oooh . . . much farther north than I've ever been in Jersey, but thanks for the very quick response! -Jonathan (22 years ago, 25-Mar-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Re: Wal-Mart, Ep II sets, and so forth.
 
(...) I haven't checked Manville yet, so that might be a possibility. It's off the beaten path, and I think it's part of the same "district" as the two spoiler stores I visited. Also: Of course it's quick. I live to serve. :D best LFB (22 years ago, 25-Mar-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Re: Wal-Mart, Ep II sets, and so forth.
 
(...) Thanks for the advice! I don't know if I'm going to take it, though. According to mapquest it's over 50 miles and almost two hours from my house in Philadelphia. I work in Trenton, however, which is a little closer, so I'm still debating it. (...) (22 years ago, 25-Mar-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Re: Wal-Mart, Ep II sets, and so forth.
 
(...) Nor have I. Maybe tonight. Princeton WalMart is loaded with SpiderMan and Jedi Starfighters (but I guess that's not early?). I heard a rumor that I could get Jango there, but found none. Chris (22 years ago, 25-Mar-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Re: Wal-Mart, Ep II sets, and so forth.
 
(...) Darn it . . .. I was just going to check Princeton tonight, seeing as how it's not far from my job in Trenton. Oh well. At the very least, it's only four weeks until they should be available in all the stores. -Jonathan (22 years ago, 25-Mar-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping)
