Toys R us would be my guess! But I guess we'll have to wait and see. Hm, I may have to go to TRU this weekend and see....

In the end, we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. We will understand only what we are taught.

If I hadn't just been there last night, I would go check now! Maybe that's why they've clearanced some stuff -- to make room!

I hope I'm wrong but the garbage truck reminds me of the chinese firetruck with the hard plastic wheels.  The short bus could be too.

Yeah... I was wondering what the quality will be like, too.

Does anyone know what it says on the sign board of the bus. On the bottom is says "SCHOOL BUS" but what is above it ? My translator says school bus in German is "Schulbus"  and it does not look like that. The small buses we have only say School Bus and nothing else so I was curious as to what this is.
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

It looks like "Ecoliers" to me, which would be one way to say "school children" in French.  This set may be destined for Canada as well as  the U.S.

Dang it, Heather, you beat me to the punch!   :lol:

It looks like it might be a sticker - if so, and if you have to apply it yourself, you could just cut it in half.  If not a sticker, you could possibly cover the word "ecoliers" with a piece of electrician's tape.
