As usual - portal of Atlantis was out of stock as soon as the sale went live on the website... They have plenty of battle packs though... No surprise there... I was over at the Burlington TRU at about 9:30 - it was reasonably busy, but not insane. They had a good supply of battlepacks and the Porta...

... Having salvaged the wreckage of an alien starship whose original point of origin could only possibly have been from outside the currently-explored galaxies, Tanuki Corp. was able to reverse-engineer the intricate propulsion system into the faster-than-light Tanuki Corp. StarDrive module for the...

yes, at least mt TRU has it.

So I was browsing through Walmart Canada's website looking for clearance deals, when I stumble upon the Power Boat Transport set. They have it listed at $25! I thought that must be a mistake, since I was just in Walmart this week and I would have noticed that as this set retails for $49.99. So, afte...

I am at the counting stage of my (possible) entry. Since this is my first contest, I just have a question or two: I saw the post about mini figure count, but do I count hands and arms separately? so a figure would be: Torso Legs Head Arm- L&R (2) Hand- L&R (2) Hair/hat for a total of eight....

Hasbro(or is it another toy company?) has the rights to make Star Wars action figures. They signed a deal with Lucas giving them exclusive rights to sell Star Wars action figures. They argued that the Star Wars magnet sets were a violation of that agreement because you could argue that people were j...

Actually, Walmart doesn't do sales, they do rollbacks. Same you know what, different pile. A rollback is a sale, just some rollbacks last longer then others.

yep

Before everyone freaks out and swear off mini figures, is this price the MSRP or the B&N price?

Just bought a Wihitecap Bay for $50 (CDN) at one of the Walmarts in Barrie. YMMV as the other Walmart in town is still selling them for $99.99

Yeah, I've had numerous problems shopping at the Barrie Ontario TRU. I once walked away from a transaction in progress when they wouldn't let me use two deals at the same time. Sorry to hear about your troubles. They should have given you the deal.

Thanks for posting that. I was so busy Saturday I completely gapped on this event and by the time we got there (12:45) they were all "sold out". My daughter was very upset. At least now I can scrounge up the parts and she can still build it.

As I ponder my potential build for this contest, I need to ask, do Halloween, Thanksgiving, New Years Eve, Valentine's Day, and St Patricks day count as "Winter" holidays? I assume New Years Eve and Valentines day definitely count as they are definitely in Winter, but what about the others?

Obviously can't speak for all Zellers, but the Barrie Ontario location had a few of each as of this morning. Both at MSRP (39.99 and 49.99 respectively).

Has anyone seen this set in-store yet at any Canadian retailers? I'm guessing the two Lego stores themselves have them but how about the other retailers? Hoping maybe Zellers has them since they have their BOGO 50% off sale on right now...but then again Lego themselves have the double VIP points th...

After bootstrap bill visits him it is the monkey that takes Jack's hat and throws it overboard early in Dead Man's Chest - and the other ship finds it and they get taken out. Besides the pub scene I don't think he wears it much until the kraken eats him etc etc. But even so...I still would like the...

Actually no, in Dead Man's Chest, when Jack realizes that Davy Jones is coming for him, he orders the crew to get to land as fast as possible. Just then, the wind blows his hat off into the water. The crew expect him to order them to get the hat, but he tells them to forget it and get to land. So a ...

Well, TRU has gone and done it again. They've changed the sale for week 3 as well. Instead of Pharoah's Quest, they have put Creator (yeah) and Star Wars (yeah) on with the Hero Factory and Sponge Bob sets at 20% off with minimum purchase of $35. Still get the magnet set. Might actually buy somethin...

ok this may sound dumb but out of curiosity. if i wanted the roman legionaire lego minifig. Is there any way I can purchase dozens of them without buying blind? Is there any way LEGO allows it so you can order a certain figure? Here's how you do it. Go the store and buy a whole box. Take them home,...
