Seems like a trick. Did anyone get this deal? Every store in my state shows out of stock.

See what happens when I relax a bit and stop paying attention? I usually check this and other sets daily! I wish Siri would alert me to this type of thing, at least she would be good for something then. Bummer. Well, hopefully it will be on sale again and I'll be able to catch it.

My local ToysRUs has all the new sets mentioned, even the new creator sets and probably others I wouldn't recognize. Everything but the one thing I was looking for, the Tonto Campfire poly. Bummer. Otherwise it's all way overpriced. I mean, I'm not sure what the official MSRP is for the Creator Tree...

@emazers: Are you going to buy?

I've got the same dilemma as you Tyrant01. Luckily for me, I forbid myself to get into the Star Wars line altogether so I'd be fine just picking 1 up then wait and see what happens once retired. That said...it might make for a great source of parts when building aircraft MOC's... hmmm, 2 then? darn.

um...where is Mr. Gold hehe Was wondering about the same thing, but I will help everyone out. Hard as hell to get. Worth over $100 if you can find one. Not made of any kind of real gold! Comes with scepter with a diamond on top, or it can be a diamond and a gold light saber. If Lego plans to do thi...

So when/if you find him what will you do? Sell him straight away at the already high value prices? Or wait it out until they are all picked up and hope that the value increases even more, given that there are only 5,000 world wide and they are individually numbered? Speaking strictly from the invest...

Wow. I'm still new at this Limited Lego run/pricing fluctuations thing. I assumed the trains were strong enough sellers that they never went on sale. So when I got lucky and was able to buy a damaged package passenger train for 10% off during double points I was pumped. Thanks for the tip/info willa...

I wouldn't even waste your time looking for Mr Gold, you will never find one, you will never meet someone who will find one. Not to mention how many :shifty: TRU employees will be pre-feeling every case to ensure Mr. Gold will never make it onto a TRU shelf... Or does that sort of thing only happen...

I'm sure not surprisingly to you all, but FYI nonetheless. If you try to buy two sets at about $40 and two sets at about $20 at the same time, their computer will apply the %50 off to each of the $20 sets leaving you to pay full for the two $40 sets. $40 $40 $10 $10 = $100 Whereas if you make two se...

I just drove 30 miles round trip to another Kmart here in CO only to walk up on a guy with a full cart at a self-serve price checker in the toy isle. I'm new at this so I was actually excited to see someone else behaving as crazy as I felt I was by chasing these sales. What was odd was when I asked ...

Stopped at two different Kmart's, one in Arvada, CO and the other Thorton, CO. Arvada only had several Mining truck's on sale, I bought two (one for us and one for nephew). Thorton not only had nothing on sale, but the entire Lego isle was stripped bare. Literally only a 4 sets on the shelves. My gu...
