Are you sure that the AT-ST is only $9.97? That seems pretty reasonable for that set. I woudl have expected more like $15 or $20.

Wow, I just picked up my first Life on Mars set, #7311 Red Planet Cruiser. Pretty cool. But what is up with that bizarre gray-green color? Does that have a name, or what? Steve "gdr" Bliss (24 years ago, 19-Dec-00, to lugnet.year.2001)
