I actually got 2 Glaciators with my Rig.
Not sure if all of them had an extra one or not.

Well, I certainly wouldn't mind if the set has 2 of them! I haven't received my ship confirmation yet, though.

My wife was happy, she liked him the best. The extra one is on a shelf eating a slice of a real Geode.

Oh, that's a cute idea. My son has a couple of those "break your own geodes" from a local gem & mineral show - I'll have to dig them out.

I have 3 loose power miners and 2 Firax figures, interested?

The sets I found on clearance earlier and the parts went to my currently dormant 7676 Gunship build. I also have the sticker sets.

Hi Koromo, I think for the moment I'm only looking for sets. Thanks a lot for mentioning them, though!

I have seen in 2 Borders stores LEGO Power Miners Fire Blaster (8188) and LEGO® Power Miners Claw Catcher 8190. Borders usually marks up their legos, but with a 20% off coupon that they email from time to time...it brings it down to MSRP.

Thanks so much for the tip! We are definitely interested in a Lego Power Miners Fire Blaster. I'll arrange for a family member to check their local Borders for us (our nearest one is now an hour's drive away :( )

Well, I'd prefer sealed polybags, but I don't necessarily need the box, or the box can be in rough shape/open. So, I guess new, but not necessarily in box...

I did get my shipping confirmation from Walmart, but in the meantime found Titanium Command Rig on clearance at another TRU (for a lot less than I paid Walmart, alas). I guess TRU does still have odds and ends of the series...

gabriellee11 - Thanks again for the tip! The Borders near my Dad's office is still open - he stopped by and they did in fact have Fire Blaster in stock. My son's going to be thrilled - it's one of the sets he particularly wanted.

I stopped by a local train museum, and for some reason they have a bunch of Power Miners sets on the shelf. If anyone is interested in them let me know and I'll check to see what sets are there and pricing.

Ooh, I'll second that. (It seems like a lifetime ago that I first opened this topic!)
