  Re: What are the most valuable Service Packs?
 
Hi Alan, So you got got the other two 5071 packs. I got another two packs prior to these but they had different numbers...I think they were 114# or 10##?

Very gracious of you to say so, Lar. Thank you...I think. All of this talk about the dark side makes me feel like Darth Wider or a Girth Maul;-) BTW Lar, what is keeping your pants up these days?

I doubt this pack is really all that rare, but one of my favorites is the 5071 Large Wheel Set.
