January 13, 201114 yr Does this mean no more stores with half the packages of well.. anything, already open? Would be nice to get Target here since the Americans are always talking about how awesome it is to have.

Hopefully that means no more sketchy toy departments I found an interesting article with more information. Hopefully this means we will get some of those Target-exclusive polybags!

January 14, 201114 yr Series 3 are available in Walmarts in the GTA. I just picked up a bunch this morning.

I've also always liked how they will "refresh" their shelves more often than Wal*mart and then quickly clearance out stuff as soon as no more can be ordered from a supplier so as to put new sku's in place. Unlike Zellers and the Bay who tended to keep old stock around until it finally sold. Really good deals can be had this way. On my last trip to a Target a couple years ago I found some larger sets (crane, Star Destroyer) at half-price!

January 24, 201114 yr I'm just waiting for Series 4 Figs and that new Maersk Train! Edited January 24, 201114 yr by legomaniac83

January 24, 201114 yr i've seen series three minifigs at the lego store, they say that they put more out every day, they have no new star wars battle packs.

Wal*Mart out here (Calgary) finished their re-facing and all the new SW sets are out (apart from the Windu and Geonosis Exclusives)...only looks to be a case of each. Pharoah's Quest and Ninjago are also out as well. No Series 3 yet.

The first time I had to feel them out, and amnaged to get the Robot, Cheerleader and Skater. The second time- a lot while later- I also had to feel them,, and got the Ninja and Zombie. The next day I raced into the city with my code sheet, and got the Cowboy, Clown, and Nurse if I'm correct.

I had absolutely no luck on series 1, ended up getting 5 clash dummies from S@H However, everyone should try London Drugs. Though an underdog for buying LEGO, it is best place for rare sets and great deals for me Have not seen series 3 yet though..
January 25, 201114 yr Can be found at Wal*Mart Supercentre at Deerfoot Outlet. Just under 8 boxes worth, 3 of which were picked through. Bump patterns are different between the two lot numbers I found embossed on the bags (544BO and 444BO) and within 544BO found two different bump patterns for the same figure (Elf). The assortment seemed different as well...3 in one, 2 in another, and then a single (444BO). Looks like mileage will vary.
