captainsamus Posted March 1, 2010 Posted March 1, 2010 Both of the stores near me have them in stock...hopefully it'll stay that way because I won't be able to drive down to one until Thursday. Might pick up Monsters 4 as wellmostly because I want the heads and because it'd be nice to get the free PAB Quote
Follows Closely Posted March 1, 2010 Posted March 1, 2010 Both of the stores near me have them in stock...hopefully it'll stay that way because I won't be able to drive down to one until Thursday.Might pick up Monsters 4 as wellmostly because I want the heads and because it'd be nice to get the free PAB I asked if the free small PAB applied to the Grand Emporium, they said sure. Doesn't hurt to ask. I picked up an extra GG today as well. Quote
Scorpio Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 Bought the Grand Emporium this morning and have just finished it. I love how it looks in my town. Also, as Follows Closely said, you do get to use the March offer of a free small PAB cup. Quote
Follows Closely Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 My two oldest and I finished building this in around 2 hours. It was a very nice build. I would rank it right below the GG, but above the others. Quote
lightningtiger Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 I just posted in Aussie Sales that this sweet set is now available S@H and at only $249.99 AUD, so check your own countries on S@H to see if you can order. Oh, happy days oh, happy days ! (Chowder) I'm a conformist! ! Quote
Notorious Guf Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 I'm heading to the UK in a day, thought I might pick one up in one of the Lego stores, hardly worth the effort of bringing it home for the small price difference, but we'll see.... Quote
metalandi Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 Don't know if this is old news, but i just saw that the instructions are up now: Book 1 Book 2 Book 3 Quote
GRogall Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 Don't know if this is old news, but i just saw that the instructions are up now:Book 1 Book 2 Book 3 Yep, old news posted them in feb. and updated the links above on the same page! Quote
DJ Force Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 What´s this free PaB all about? Does that offer include Germany? I´ll definetly get to the next Lego store then in a hurry :D Wanted to buy the Grand Emporium anyway :) Quote
Follows Closely Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 In the US anyway, you get a free small pick a brick cup to fill with a $75 purchase. Quote
Cwetqo Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 Yes, it also includes Germany. I think it was also in march lego store calendar. And this has nothing to do with GE, it's valid for all purchases. Similar was in december (you got 2 free cups, but you had to use them after the new year). BTW, I was in LS i Munich on saturday and PAB was crowded with people collecting their free christmas PAB cups. Hence, PAB wall was robbed of all usefull bricks. Quote
Edmond Dantes Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 In the US anyway, you get a free small pick a brick cup to fill with a $75 purchase. Interesting - does this apply at the Mall of America store as well? Quote
Follows Closely Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 Interesting - does this apply at the Mall of America store as well? I would assume so. Quote
captainsamus Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 The local Lego store has never bugged me for the coupon itself either, so hopefully they won't care about the small print about needing to buy a boardgame. If they do, I'll just get Monster's 4. Plus, since I'm going tomorrow, I'll get the Max keychain as well, so that's cool. I'm excited, this is definitely my next favorite modular, trailing only Green Grocer. I'm almost considering getting a second one at some point, mirroring the build, and removing the middle walls to create an ultra Grand Emporium, that would actually have 2 escalators on each floor!

I am going to do this once I get a little extra money but I am going to redesign the addition. I have a feeling a lot of people are going to do this as well. That is probably why they only give you one escalator at first. Lego and their trickery lol. Quote
wooootles Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 (edited) I'm almost considering getting a second one at some point, mirroring the build, and removing the middle walls to create an ultra Grand Emporium, that would actually have 2 escalators on each floor! What I plan to do. Let's face it, Grand Emporium is rather small for a department store. The 2-wide aisle after the escalator still bugs me. The dressing room is just... out there, but I'd rather make the small exit door and the very small backyard the dressing room (that wouldn't be too hard no wouldn't it?) Having entered some shops last winter in the Magnificent Mile bunch of awesome ideas came through my head regarding GE, but I'll need at least 2 copies + PAB to do it. The ideas. They're all in my head. The customizability (that a word? lul) of GE is absurdly high. Edited March 4, 2010 by wooootles Quote
Jasper Joppe Geers Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 Grand Emporium now in holland available! Yeeh! Quote
Rapseflaps Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 (edited) What? Where? Brickshop.nl went from "shipped within 1-3 days" to "product unavailable" before Sunday already and Lego.nl still lists it as "Not available." Me want! EDIT: Whoops, never mind. Lego.nl's search results lists it as "Not available," but I can order when I click on to the product page. Awesomeness! Edited March 4, 2010 by Rapseflaps Quote
Jasper Joppe Geers Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 I don't get it... When i go to the Lego.com store, i can order the GE no problem.. What should be different for me than you?... Anyway, this is going to be another fantastic set! Can't wait to get my hands on it!! Cheers! JJ. What? Where?Brickshop.nl went from "shipped within 1-3 days" to "product unavailable" before Sunday already and Lego.nl still lists it as "Not available." Me want! EDIT: Whoops, never mind.

Rapseflaps Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 (edited) Uhm, just like I said. When I do a quick search for "10211" I get this: Grand Emporium Item #: 10211 Ages: 16+Pieces: 2182 Price EUR 0.00 Not Available But if I proceed and click on the search result, it takes me to the Grand Emporium's product page, where its price is listed, it's marked "Available Now" and I can order it perfectly fine. I just didn't look hard enough first time around. Edited March 4, 2010 by Rapseflaps Quote
ChefAgf Posted March 5, 2010 Posted March 5, 2010 Just ordered mine! Can't wait to have it next to the other buildings! I am feeling like a happy 6 year old kid Quote
Rapseflaps Posted March 5, 2010 Posted March 5, 2010 Ordered, along with 3222. And to think six months ago I had none of these modular buildings. Luckily though, I now have at least a year to save up for the next one! Quote
vader11 Posted March 9, 2010 Posted March 9, 2010 (edited) I just finished building my GE and here's a photo(I believe this is the 1st ever) of all 5 modular houses together: http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=1161...mp;id=658535713 And also here: http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=1161...mp;id=658535713 Edited March 9, 2010 by vader11 Quote
