Exactly, her alone is probably worth $30. There are blog posts that explain LEGO Star Wars flipping where people buy a set for MSRP or on sale and then sale the minifigures and almost get the pieces for free because the minifigures sell for so much. Average for her seems to be in the $20-25 range o...

Didn't really have time....also one would hope that if you order within minutes it should go through. I placed my order a good 30 minutes before it sold out. Toys-r-us has really crappy linkage between their online store and actual inventory.

Yep canceled.

I am in the same boat. I am not counting on it shipping at this point.

The one I ordered which was called "used - good" was merely a damaged box. I believe that has been very consistent so far I haven't heard of anyone getting one that was actually used.

Keep an eye out for used ones. When its $119 they have "used" ones from Amazon Warehouse deals occasionally for $102 or $96. If you don't care about a mint box it makes the deal even better.

I heard from a source who works at Toys'r'Us there is no give away.

Hit up a walmart today that had 4 MF, 6 Ghost Trains, about 10 Tie Fighters, a number of Werewolf MF sets, and several other sets in the clearance section.

Only bad thing, was they were all at regular retail price. After this same wally world had the Ghost Trains at $54 just last week.

I got mine that was tagged as "Good - Used" for $96 yesterday. Only condition issue was the box had a big slit in it like someone went too deep with the box cutter when opening the case these shipped in.

What poly bags were you finding?

Back in stock on the warehouse side for $96.60

My wallet thanks the Lego group. I was going to be stuck 3 hours away from my local store on the 26th now I see I don't have anything to worry about.

Also Targets around here are already almost completely cleared out of clearance sets so no worries there either.

Thanks for posting this. I had a chunk sitting in paypal so I was able to jump on this and since I'm in a state where Amazon has a warehouse I have to pay tax anyway so it worked as a wash. I was one of those shocked when it suddenly went sold out. I had 1 already but wanted a 2nd one.

Thanks OP.

Yeah this is going to be a mess. ;) Hey I get the pod racers for $30 or I return the set, either way I'm good.

Its not the 18th yet....you're a day ahead. :D

I found a pod racer in stock and picked it up. If the price drops I'll get a price adjustment otherwise I'll just return it.

Dang it, and I just bought the pod racers from Amazon.

However I haven't seen a Pod Racer set in target for several weeks now around where I live so it could it end up being YMMV.

Got a bunch, my best guess is that each store got 10. I didn't see a store that had more than 10.

Republic Frigate is now a 3rd part seller and not B&N. That is why the price is now jacked.

Picked this up on ebay http://www.ebay.com/itm/HUGE-LOT-OF-LEGOS-ALIENS-ADU-PIRATES-RESCUE-COP-7977-4441-RACE-CARE-PLANE-BOAT-/300796603560 So far I've identified parts from 18 sets from the pics. I have no idea what the orange and blue thing is though in one of the pics. Part count wise it will sti...
