Ratshot Posted January 13, 2011 Posted January 13, 2011 Hopefully that means no more sketchy toy departments Agreed! Zellers has a terrible Lego department! Does anyone know if Targets Lego selection is any good? Quote
prateek Posted January 13, 2011 Posted January 13, 2011 Agreed! Zellers has a terrible Lego department! Does anyone know if Targets Lego selection is any good? It's pretty good. I remember going to a Target on the way to Chicago, and their Lego shelves were pretty full! Quote
Sir Fred Posted January 13, 2011 Posted January 13, 2011 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. Quote
autobrick Posted January 13, 2011 Posted January 13, 2011 Apparently, Target wants to buy the Zellers stores from HBC for $1.83 billion. 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! Quote
The Legonater Posted January 14, 2011 Posted January 14, 2011 Apparently, Target wants to buy the Zellers stores from HBC for $1.83 billion. Hopefully that means no more sketchy toy departments Sweet! Maybe I can finally buy those exclusives I keep hearing are sold there! Quote
Ceroknight Posted January 14, 2011 Posted January 14, 2011 But would the stores be called zellers or target? Quote
prateek Posted January 14, 2011 Posted January 14, 2011 But would the stores be called zellers or target? Target. They won't rename every single store, but they (don't ask me who) are predicting Zellers will cease to exist in the next 5 years. Quote
BearHeart Posted January 14, 2011 Posted January 14, 2011 Series 3 are available in Walmarts in the GTA. I just picked up a bunch this morning. Quote
winbrant Posted January 14, 2011 Posted January 14, 2011 Agreed! Zellers has a terrible Lego department! Does anyone know if Targets Lego selection is any good? 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! Quote
prateek Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 Toys R Us: 20% off Atlantis, City, and brick buckets. Quote
prateek Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 Wow. No posts in a week! Slow month? LOL Yup, very slow. Any new sightings? Any new Star Wars sets? Quote
Ogre Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 Yup, very slow. Any new sightings? Any new Star Wars sets? I've been pulling OT (that would be 'overtime', not 'original trilogy') all week. Have barely had time to even THINK about LEGO! *hides face in shame* Quote
The Legonater Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 Yup, very slow. Any new sightings? Any new Star Wars sets? I've seen the T-6, V-Wing and Gunship, but none of the battlepacks of the Naboo battle. Quote
legomaniac83 Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 (edited) I'm just waiting for Series 4 Figs and that new Maersk Train! Edited January 24, 2011 by legomaniac83 Quote
Ceroknight Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 I'm just waiting for Series 4 Figs and that new Maersk Train! maersk train will probably be only in calgary lego store, unless there will be more stores soon , or at S@H Haven't seen any new starwars sets here yet, and does anyone know if 'hoth base' with the taun taun, still available? Quote
r4-g9 Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 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. Quote
Ricecracker Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 maersk train will probably be only in calgary lego store, unless there will be more stores soon , or at S@H There's the Toronto store opening in April. Quote
winbrant Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 Yup, very slow. Any new sightings? Any new Star Wars sets? 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. Quote
The Legonater Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 I'm just waiting for Series 4 Figs and that new Maersk Train! I still haven't seen any of 2 or 3... Quote
prateek Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 I still haven't seen any of 2 or 3... I know they exist, but I still haven't seen Series 1 in stores! Quote
legomaniac83 Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 (edited) I know they exist, but I still haven't seen Series 1 in stores! I couldn't find these in stores either. Got the complete set online, and for a great price. Edited January 24, 2011 by legomaniac83 Quote
The Legonater Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 I know they exist, but I still haven't seen Series 1 in stores! I only saw Series 1 three times. 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. Quote
Ceroknight Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 There's the Toronto store opening in April. I heard about that, but I wasn't totally sure if it was confirmed... 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.. Quote
winbrant Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 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. Quote
