Re: Collectable minifigures slowly coming to USA

By the time I got to TRU this weekend, there was two boxes but people have picked over it pretty well because I noticed the barcodes were for the same couple minifigs (that I didn't take the time to deciper which ones were left). If it's closer to the distribution center I think you'll have a better...

Re: 19% off Lego Fallingwater (21005) on Amazon.com

Prices for this item keep dropping, now it's down to 32% off directly from Amazon with free shipping. I wonder if that means it's close to being discontinued. Anyone have any thoughts on that? Almost makes me want to buy another before they're all gone and then the price gouging begins.

Re: [USA] Wal-Mart clearance items

Not the WM near me. Too bad, waste of a trip. Will the find in store tell you the if it's on sale or not?

Nice, even better! Wish I'd known about that before I ordered. Too bad BN.com doesn't apply these to the other series sets.

32% off Lego Fallingwater (21005) on Amazon.com

Not a bad discount if you're looking for one of the Lego from their recent architecture series. This one is the largest of the bunch and isn't overly priced (compared to the others which have much less pieces and details). Here's the link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002IXYSGO?ie=UTF8&tag=...

Re: Lego Stores Sale

This appears to apply to all the Lego stores since I've seen it at two separate locations now. It's Spring clearing for new items...there's only so much shelf space.

Re: FREE Silver Storm Trooper with 10.99 Purchase at Toys R Us

Does anyone know if there will be more of these? We just missed getting them at the store. They may restock but keep in mind the promotion ends on March 20 and only while supplies last. I suggest calling other local ToysRUs stores in your area for product availability. I wish I could but live in a ...

Re: Battery Life for Batteries Boxes

In general I agree with what you stated, but I did a little more research into this and here's some information that might be useful for others. Apparently, the rechargeable battery will last over 2 hours on an Emerald Night set based on the reviews I read on S@H. And it takes about 3 hours for a fu...

Re: Lego sets sold out everywhere

Yeah, same experience here... local target was nearby empty. Local Lego store had most everything, but business was brisk and they were moving a lot of sets when I was there. Some of the more popular items are sold out and will not be restocked until after Christmas so I guess they didn't expect the...
