as a kid my most sought after was the aerialbot gift set.
in toronto it was pretty much non-existant or from what i took from my parents going crazy trying to find me one for what seemed like months.
then one day my day calling around said. "get your coat and get in the truck, fast"
i said ok? and we drove to consumers distributing (is what its called not warehouse)
my dad had found the only one left in Toronto area he said and they were only holding it for like an hour.
i still remember everything about that day to this day. its probably my most memorable TF experience/memory.
