Ah yes, the Sawmill Road Meijer's, I worked there for a year when I went
to Ohio State, during 1993-1994. Ah, the memories! :) I hope you enjoy
your sets as much as I did!

the Landspeeders and Speederbikes) another for Mike Huffman and the third set
for my brother who is away at college and has no car.

I like the smaller two sets, which were built immediately when I got home
- after driving the speed limit of course :-).  It wasn't until I built the
Snowspeeder later in the evening that I had the flashbacks and distant memories
of well-designed sets.  I'm talking about the kind of set that has a variety of
general use pieces, but combines them into a creative, fun, inspiring creation
that can be displayed, played with, or taken apart and rebuilt into any of
100 different things.  The Snowspeeder is quite a piece of work, IMO, and I'm
hoping the X-Wing and Tie/Y-Wing sets are equally impressive (they will be
built tomorrow, maybe I'll come home for lunch!).
