Oh, for anyone who happens to run into a lego store anytime soon. See if there are any copies of X-Pod Playoff available and pick me up one. :-)

It's LEGO set number is 65535. It comes with the four original colours of x-pods + the hard to find black robot pod.

Nope, it's a board game that Toys R Us carried for about a minute. And Lego Shop At Home never carried it.

It came with a playboard and the four original x-pods ( the small 50+ piece sets that came in a round pod case that could be used as building pieces as well ) plus a "rare" black x-pod.

Last night it turned up in a Buy-it-now for $20 on ebay. Sound about right?

That would be the item. $20 is about the normal price. But DAMN! $10 for shipping?

DAMN! I knew the black ones were rare, but THAT rare? I kinda heard that, so I chose the black one over the not-as-good-looking green one.

I thought the game instructions were downloadable. Or were you still needing the original kits? I bet you can adapt the rules with the current kits, with a bit of time...

I kinda like the new white robot kit. The black one is still dear to my heart and all (with a special place in my cubicle, along w/ my Sonic Screwdriver), but AJ has totally impressed me with what he can do with it.

He made a nice assault SUV with the new Auto set that Nate got.
(I could swear you met both my older boys at the C10 meet & greet, I think)

Far as I know, except maybe at lego store themselves, the only way they were sold was in the game set and if you ordered a certain amount from lego shop at home when the sets first came out.

Yeah, the rules are downloadable. But I don't have ANY of the first set and figured it'd be a good way to get all five.

and yeah I met your two older boys at C10. Your youngest was still a parasite and not yet a crotchburster. ;-)
