I hope this hasn't been mentioned before. I'm not thrilled about the Racers sets, but figure those who are need to know. You can now find the following sets at S@H: <set:4566 4566 Gear> for $2.99 USD <set:4567 4567 Surfer> for $2.99 USD <set:4568 (...) (24 years ago, 16-Dec-00, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.general)

The 48x48 gray baseplate got a new number once. I was able to buy several hundred at clearance prices because they had the old discontinued number on them. I would hardly call them re-released, though. Mike Poindexter Erik Olson <olsone@spamcop.net> (...) (24 years ago, 15-Dec-00, to lugnet.admin.database, lugnet.general, lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.duplo)

(...) ...The body is a slight mod of the battle droids, the leg beam has a ridge at the edge so the legs dont slide off... also the parts are made of slightly better ABS. They feel sturdier and less flimsy, more playable (the head also sticks on (...) (24 years ago, 15-Dec-00, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.space)

(...) Mechs (...) with (...) My local TRU doesn't have the base either, but they do have the excavation crawler. What else does the base have aside from pneumatic tubes? I mean, I can see from the pics that there's a small mech, and docking ports (...) (24 years ago, 14-Dec-00, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.space)

(...) Yeah, the neatest thing about it is that you can send the martian either direction by rotating the air pump. And there are three possible tubes to send the carrier in and you can send up one and down another all without having to remove the (...) (24 years ago, 14-Dec-00, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.space)

Ah Cool, so that is what it does. I was trying to discern from the pictures. The local TRU didn't have the big set. I picked up the two Mechs & the Tri-Trike or whatever it is called. I love the mechs. I'm going to have to get some more. And with (...) (24 years ago, 14-Dec-00, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.space)

I have seen all of the Mars sets and think they all rock! I am really impressed with the station. You can actually use an air pump to shoot a single martian laying flat in a little carrier through several tubes. I have had trouble tearing myself (...)

Town sets from 1978 got new dates when their packaging was changed. They weren't discontinued, just refreshed. (24 years ago, 14-Dec-00, to lugnet.admin.database, lugnet.general, lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.duplo)

(...) I guess it all depends on how you define a discontinued set, and even what constitutes a re-release (and does a set have to be discontinued to be re-released?). If we define a set with more than one copyright date as a re-release, then there (...) (24 years ago, 14-Dec-00, to lugnet.admin.database, lugnet.general, lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.duplo)
