According to the staff at the Sherway (Toronto) LEGO store, the July monthly model build won't be on July 1 in Canada (Canada Day Holiday) a new alternate date will be announced. If anyone hears what it is, please let us all know!

Yes, let me know so I can post the correct date once the post goes up here (usually a week before).

A free surf board is nice (goes and borrows some children).

Anyone want to guess what the new set will be? I'm thinking that Cuusoo mech set.

At last the PAB wall is getting refreshed! I'm looking forward to new elements. Years ago the PAB wall was full of unique pieces, but the last few years my local store has mostly carrired standard bricks, plates & 1x1 translucents square or round pieces.

I am looking forward to the PAB refresh. At least I did get well stocked on grey bricks earlier this year but been hoping for some new pieces. This is good to hear.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to that too. Wondering what they will have!

Anyone have any idea what this is going to be? We live about 150 miles from the closest LEGO store, but am wondering if it's worth a drive.

On St. Patrick's Day the special prize at my store for finding the "4-Leaf Clover" was only movie poster. I hope it's something better than that.

The date for the monthly model build at Canadian stores is Tuesday July 8:

"Upcoming Mini Model Build:
LEGO Beach Van: Tuesday, July 8 begins at 5:00 pm until supplies last."

from http://stores.lego.com/en-us/stores/ca/sherway-gardens

I checked a sampling of other stores in Canada and they all seem to show the same date, but you might want to double check your local store to be 100% sure.

For those who know the Lego store PAB wall circulation better I have a question:

When the July refresher is more likely to happen, beginning of the month, middle or is it on a weekly basis?

I was there (family vacation) at the beginning of June and found some nice pieces, but went back this past weekend (vacation again!) and found nothing new.

I wanted to know if this is the norm from month to month.
I live about 2 hours away.

Thanks

As far as I know, this is the first time they've really announced a refresh - usually things will change a a little bit from month-to-month, but I am hoping that this July update brings us some interesting pieces. I've noticed a lot of the same old tired stuff from month-to-month.

My guess is since they are promoting it, it will happen early in the month.

It seems like the wall has been fairly stagnant the last few months. I usually try to go about 3 times a month to fill a cup but the last few times it was exactly the same. I filled a cup with some more grey bricks and the last time I didn't even fill a cup.

I am hoping they are saving all of the new pieces for the July refresh.

Thank you for the input.

If I go again, I will post if I find something out of the ordinary.

Took my son today to the Lego store in Oakridge Mall Vancouver, found all 4 turtles plus shredder and splinter and my son got to build a minifigure to take home free.

The yorkdale Toronto location gave us a poster for finding the turtles. No minifigures.
