Crap... missed out while the boards were down. Did you happen to notice whether they have blue 32 x 32 base plates? They're gone off of S@H again. If someone is heading down to S@H (or anywhere for that matter) and spots some, I'd like four.

Sears Outlet in Coquitlam (across from Lougheed) has the Dino Attack T1 Typhoon for $62.xx. There were also the Bionicle minifig sets there, but I didn't check out the prices.

Two 4400 Spumoni Tubs for Trade *** DONE DEAL ***

I was doing some sculpture building yesterday and I started to run out of white, black and red. The 4679 tub was good for these particular builds. I bought three of the 4400 tubs originally, one for my niece and two extras which have not been opened. At that time I was starting out and I read in wis...

Real Canadian Superstore

Blowout specials at Real Canadian Superstore

Dino Attack T1 Typhoon $60 reg $100
Vladek's Dark Fortress $90 reg $130
And some Bionicle stuff

No VDF at SW Marine Drive. Quite a few T1's left. Too bad I picked these up awhile back through S@H. Would have saved an extra $10 on each one.

It's the obsessive compulsive in me. Actually, it's because having three of that piece kind of sucks.

I also need a 4 x 4 Corner Round Brick if someone is willing to sell me one in great condition. I acquired a Freestyle 4151 set and this was one of the key pieces missing.

Buddy, can you spare a square?

Okay... I can't remember what movie that's from but I've got a simple request that will probably blossom out to a full blown wants list. I'm looking for a 1x1 trans-clear plate, quantity one. I acquired a used Rocky River Retreat a few months back and this was the single piece missing. I haven't fou...

Sorry 4pm rolled around and I was nowhere near a computer. As much as it pains me, I'm going to pass on the Building Bonanza. It really is a great set, though.

Since it's fixed shipping, it doesn't matter how much you order. You're good to go with what you've got. Although, I am swaying and I am very tempted to get a second Building Bonanza. I'll let you know by 4pm.

Based on what you want in the above order and including two Building Bonanza, you might be better off putting your whole order under catalog code SPC55F. The City stuff is still on discount under this code. However, I just checked and this code gives $5.95 fixed shipping. However, I can't commit to ...

I missed out on it and hadn't noticed that they've added it to a different code. I'll give it some thought, but it's becoming mighty hard after seeing some of the 2006 stuff. Gotta start saving up for the Exo Force line!

Cool, they also have the HP4 stuff too!

Dino Attack: T1 Typhoon

I saw this on another forum (member from Abbotsford)

"Was in Costco again today and noticed they now have the Dino Attack T-1 Typhoon vs. T-Rex for $69 - it's normally $99 everywhere else they sell LEGO."

Would be cool, if I didn't have it already. Paid the same price, though.
