  ZNAP Motor deal?
 
I just got back for TRU. Looks like ZNAP have landed in town (Crearwater, Florida)! I’m not impressed with the sets and it look like they are taking up most of the Technic shelf space. But there may some good parts in these sets: EX: 3552 Hover-Sub (...) (24 years ago, 15-Apr-00, to lugnet.znap, lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)

  Re: What is Znap?
 
I saw lots of Znap and Construx on sale in ICA Maxi and Leksakshuset in Ingelsta, Norrköping. In some cases, prices were more than 50% off.

(...) There were flexible axles in the Znap (motorized) sets. But they are much different than the ones in the 8448.

I have seen most znap sets on sale in germany this week. TRU has them for 50%-75% off. For example the large set 3591 which is usually around US$75 is now available for only US$25, what a low price. Nearly the same thing for all other Znap sets. (...) (25 years ago, 14-Dec-99, to lugnet.znap)

The 3552 or the 3571 are really good value. Both have motors, flex axels, and good wheels. My local Argos was selling these cheap at the weekend. Scott A Chris Magno wrote in message <38012E18.5BDE96F0@home.com>... (...) (25 years ago, 12-Oct-99, to lugnet.znap)

  Znap
 
Actually, Znap is much closer to Construx, not too much like K'NEX. Basically it will interface with Lego through Technic, sort of like interfacing Duplo and Lego through 2x bricks. Once you make the 'transition', you can do whatever. I am (...) (25 years ago, 22-Sep-99, to lugnet.znap)
