February 21, 201015 yr They didn't even have the Luke's Landspeeder at the Lego store. Apparently it's on "online exclusive", which really sucks. I'll have to check Walmart though.EDIT: Darn! The nearest Walmart that has it is 47 miles away. Grrr. 47 miles away?! That's horrible - the closest one to me is less than half a mile away!Your best bet then would be to use the site-to-store shop-n-ship feature at the LEGO Store. There's a computer there that you can use to buy things on shop.LEGO.com and get it shipped to your house FREE (using any other computers won't work, only the store one will). You'll have to wait for the next shipment of Luke's Landspeeders to come in mid-March, but if you really want it, this is probably your best bet. I can't find the online link to more info about this. I remember seeing it before, but I don't know where it is now on LEGO's official website. EDIT: Found it! It's actually called shop-n-ship, and it seems to have turned into the LEGO VIP site... Also, check out the bottom left of the December 2009 LEGO Store calendar (thanks to TooMuchDew): (I had to retype all of this since my browser suddenly stopped responding when I was typing ) Edited February 21, 201015 yr by ILikePi
February 21, 201015 yr Mine had it when I bought mine but I had to ask for them. Ah that explains why my store still doesn't have it. I think when the say "online exclusive" they mean "Lego released them too early and couldn't produce enough so we're keeping them online for such a significant amount of time people will believe us and not notice when they appear in stores months from now for only days."
February 21, 201015 yr 47 miles away?! That's horrible - the closest one to me is less than half a mile away! The closest one that has the Landspeeder, according to Walmart.com. Your best bet then would be to use the site-to-store feature at the LEGO Store. There's a computer there that you can use to buy things on shop.LEGO.com and get it shipped to your house FREE (using any other computers won't work, only the store one will).

I'll check it out the next time I go! Thanks!
February 21, 201015 yr I should never have passed the landspeeder when I saw they had 50 of them at my walmart. (I was hoping they would discounted their exclusives like ahsoka fighter for $20) Now i don't know how long till the next shippment. By the way, theres no way of checking availability in stores in Canada. They don't even have lego for sale online after they started getting lego again..

February 26, 201015 yr various different minifig magnet packs on sale at S@H, depending on your country of residence UK is the Stormie/X-Wing Pilot/AT-ST Driver £6.29
March 3, 201014 yr new magnet sets (ewok one and palpatine one) limited to 5 per customer in most countries on S@H - trying to stop the multi-buy resellers ?
March 4, 201014 yr Sold out already on S@H, I havent even had a chance to order it... It's strange TLC released a product and miscalculate that much, let's hope they produce more.
March 5, 201014 yr Any news at all on the chrome stormies for the UK? I would also like to know if there is any news on this deal/promo in the US.
March 5, 201014 yr Sold out already on S@H, I havent even had a chance to order it... It's strange TLC released a product and miscalculate that much, let's hope they produce more. and the palpatine set sold out now as well
March 9, 201014 yr From the LEGO Star Wars 2010 Pictures and Rumors thread: I bought a couple of the new magnetsets (palpatine, solo) from S@H and they are all chinaplastic. As are the keychains. Aha so you're one of the reasons that the new magnetsets are sold out already
March 9, 201014 yr Has anyone recently seen Luke's landspeeder on any stores? It's like a saskswatch, you know its real, but you've never seen one .
March 10, 201014 yr Has anyone recently seen Luke's landspeeder on any stores? It's like a saskswatch, you know its real, but you've never seen one. I saw them today at walmart when I went to check out the lego's, they had a few of them.
March 14, 201014 yr Right now, in TRU stores (and online) in the US, you get a free Chrome Stormie in polybag with any LEGO Star Wars set purchase of $11.99 or more! Get 'em quick before they're gone! Now I feel kinda stupid having gotten the magnet set at its ridiculous price.

I'll definitely have to go and buy something at Toys R Us. And no need to feel ridiculous Oky Wan - I own the magnet set and I feel the same way. EDIT: One interesting thing worth pointing out is that the minifig has a blaster rifle instead of a sniper rifle: Have a great Pi Day everyone! Edited March 14, 201014 yr by ILikePi
March 14, 201014 yr You can also buy them for $2.99 each on the TRU website. Yeah, but right now it's out of stock. If they restock it, I'll buy four and get a fifth one for free! It'll be like buying a Silver Stormie Battle Pack with 5 figs. And no need to feel ridiculous Oky Wan - I own the magnet set and I feel the same way. EDIT: One interesting thing worth pointing out is that the minifig has a blaster rifle instead of a sniper rifle: SNIP Well, at least we're not one of those people who payed 20-30 bucks just to get it a few days early from Legoland. Hm, good eye. I would have prefered it with a sniper too (I have way too few of those) but oh well. Have a great Pi Day everyone! Hehe, you too.
March 14, 201014 yr Uhm, okay: "Yes". Seriously, though, I bet they wont, just like the chrome or any other promo.
March 14, 201014 yr I've got a question to the people who already went to TRU and got their silver stormie polybag: Do they allow you to buy the polybags separately without buying any LEGO Star Wars sets? I would love to be able to buy 2-3 at $3 each at the store since, unfortunately, I already have the battle packs and I don't want to pay $4 shipping just for polybags (also, Oky Wan pointed out that they're out of stock online). Well, at least we're not one of those people who payed 20-30 bucks just to get it a few days early from Legoland. Hm, good eye. I would have prefered it with a sniper too (I have way too few of those) but oh well. Hehe, you too. One thing I learned when it comes to items that seem exclusive is to wait - usually they'll be available in larger amounts later on. Have a great Pi Day everyone!

March 15, 201014 yr Do they allow you to buy the polybags separately without buying any LEGO Star Wars sets? The one I went to did, I was able to buy as many as I wanted for $2.99 each. I've heard other people say they asked and were denied though. Sounds like it depends on the store.
