  Re: US S@H Specials, Oct 18 - Oct 24, 2000
 
(...) Ooh -- if you're a fan of the old-style Toggle Joints with teeth, jump on that 5289. There are 4 of the old 2L Gray Toggle Joints and 4 of the old gray piston rods with opposing side studs. The rest of the parts aren't particularly uncommon (...) (25 years ago, 18-Oct-00, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics, lugnet.space)  
 
  Feedback on the Airtech Claw Rig (8868)
