I've been pretty vocal about TRU and their price shenanigans for some time; but I am surprised (genuinely) that latest wave of super hero sets have been marked up a mere $2. (As opposed to $40 sets marked up to $70 and "slashed" back down to $60 or $65) ... While I agree that the price in...

I was able to grab the LotR Black Gate for $40. I also saw the Comanche Camp for $11. I didn't pick that one up but I'm second guessing my decision. I may just stop on my way to work in the morning to get it; any advice?

Yes, we found those images on brickset. While more helpful and detailed than the pictures on the bag, it would be nice to have the actual instructions. PDF, scan, etc. is more than sufficient. A Step by Step guide for two boys under 8 would be very appreciated.

My kids have been trying to put their MBA 20202 polybags together and are having a difficult time re-creating the 3 models pictured on the bag. I also can't seem to find the instructions online anywhere. Does anyone have a "copy" that they would be willing to forward to me?

Our event was the same color/activity page and mini poster. Also, every participant, including both of my boys, got a MBA poly 20202 as a thank you for coming.

Now THESE are the sales that I've come to know from TRU! Not those REAL sales that we got before Christmas...

I was able to get one of these in-store yesterday for $4.99. There seemed to be quite a few but I grabbed it now rather than waiting in fear that I wouldn't find it again.

Any news on the other polybag yet...Legolas right? Last year we got both gandalf and elf polys in the same week.

The deal is still good. I got the Sail Barge for $70 and was able to use my reward dollars too. My wallet thanks you for the heads up.

Well... :-D I stopped into a different TRU yesterday. Still trying to find that series 11 CMF storage case which they still didn't have. Why are they the only store that carries these special edition cases? I did however decide to see what I could use my $10 promo gift card that expires 11/2. I saw ...

eBay, OK. I looked in Toys R Us on my way home from work, but no dice. They didn't have a single winter set in stock.

Now what is bricklink and how would I use it most effectively in this situation?

Thanks for the info! At least I'm not too far behind. I was afraid that these have been around for the past decade and would be near impossible to find. Considering I'm new at this, can anyone point me in a good direction to grab these at a decent price? Or, does anyone have any extra of these that ...

I'm reasonably new to buying LEGO sets because my kids (7 & 5) are really into building. As a result, I'm becoming more interested in different sets. These holiday sets really grabbed my personal attention so I just put in a shop at home order to get the 2013 promo set 1/2. I had no idea that th...

I stopped into my local TRU because I'm still trying to pick up the CMF series 11 storage case (which they didn't have). Anyhow, I noticed two things. One: Palpatines Arrest was 25% off bringing it down to $89.99 (MSRP) and Two: there were 5 boxes of the week 2 minifig pack on the shelf with a $19.9...

As a newbie, I thought I'd share my tip. I've seen most of what has been talked about in this thread so far but no mention of Jabba's Palace. 2 of my local Walmats have it for $64. You may want to scan that one. Also Weathertop was priceed for $40.
