Hi Ben,
If you are just looking for the Micro motors your best bet is probably S@H..
the barcode truck doesnt have any pnuematics , it uses the flex system cables
the crane truck and the indy storm use only that new "hydrolic action"
compression cylinder for opening canopies.... the only set that you mentioned
that has the actual pnuematics is the blue tow truck ... now that the technic
sub set is sold out( its possible you might find this thru the Lego outlet
store in Virgina) the only set that I know of that has the blue tanks is that
blue tow truck. As for more of the large, and small cylinders and switches, S@H
again is probably the way to go. Hope this helps.
John
