In the Alpha Team instruction manual it says "Evil Orbs have turned LEGO townspeople into mindless zombies.". Could "LEGO Town" be replaced with "Zombieville"? NICK D^`; (24 years ago, 16-Nov-00, to lugnet.town, lugnet.games)

(...) Yep. I know they showed up chrome in a few different sets. Well, OK, at least two, one of which is 2963. They look even weirder (i.e., more un-LEGO-ish) without the chrome.

In the US it's sometimes a promotional set, as in, TRU tried to GIVE them away with purchase of any $20 Lego set. At one TRU I saw dozens of them sit there for a long long time.

I haven't seen any lately, but I haven't really paid any attention (the set never really interested me.) (24 years ago, 11-Nov-00, to lugnet.loc.ca, lugnet.town, lugnet.market.shopping)
