Good sets to get T-pieces and studded technic pins?

[Nitewatchman]

Are there any impulse sets/low-price sets with a good number of those T-connectors and studded technic pins?

By T-connectors I mean these:


And by studded technic pins I mean the blue piece in this:


Anyone? Beuller?

The reason I need these is because I've been putting off completing my A.R.K. squad(which none of you probably remember) and three T-joints and a few of those studded pins are all I'm really lacking. Also, anything with excessive amounts of lightsaber pieces would be good, as I can use those to improve the hip joints.

Go on Peeron and look through the cheaper sets that are out now.

I'm in the same boat man... I ran out of those T pins. I had to steal some from other creations and supplement them with hose nozzles. I honestly don't even remember what sets I got them in.

My problem is a little different.... I wanted to order a bunch of Brick Link but I can't figure out what the official name of that piece is. I never did find them on Brick Link.

Does anyone know what they are actually called and / or how to find them on Brick Link?

Here's the Technic half-pin: http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=4274

And here's the t-bar (under pneumatic): http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=4696b

Wow, that was hard. Took me literally 2 minutes to find them both
