Posted April 1, 200816 yr Hi Does any one know if any major chains in North America carry the impulse sets besides Toys R us? I know Target doesnt, but I dont know if walmart or Kmart do... Thanks
April 1, 200816 yr ....I know Target doesnt...... Yes they do! There are plenty at my local Target. They probably haven't stocked them at yours. When did you last check?
April 1, 200816 yr I haven't seen a single one in stores *sweet* . Not in Target nor in TRU. But I must've missed them! Then again, I don't go there very much! Good luck in your search, though!

April 1, 200816 yr the impulse sets were stocked before easter. then after easter they were on clearance sale. you didn't see them because they were kept in the easter aisle. i bought most on the monday after easter for 50% off (i.e. $2) and then some more for 75% during the clearance week. so far all three retailers, walmart, tru and target, stock them. walmart sold out quite quickly since they priced them at $3.47. target and tru both retailed them at $3.99. and target just "clearance" them after easter.

D'oh!! So that's where they were...
April 4, 200816 yr What do you call "impulse sets"? :-$ They're typically the smallest boxed sets one can get. Usually $3.00 or so in cost. Folks buy them "on impulse..."
April 5, 200816 yr Hey there, DP8! Actually, the Impulse sets here in MI were in the easter basket stuffers section, not Lego, just FYI. (Target)
April 6, 200816 yr Yes they do! There are plenty at my local Target. They probably haven't stocked them at yours. When did you last check? Most don't though, Target's over in Aus. are very bad with lego as in they don't have much variety..
April 9, 200816 yr I've now seen the Lonely Knight, Copper, and Fire-Marshall Bill in my local TRU (USA-NY)!! Still waiting on that Mage though...
