Hey everyone, I was at my local TRU yesterday and was asking about the new
starwars sets and when they would have them. He said "we won't have those
sets" when I asked why he said that the starwars sets had "flopped like a
pancake" (whatever) and they weren't going to carry the new sets. I would

I'm itching to get my hands on them!!
Thanks,
Ron
