r4-g9 Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 the calgary marlborough mall walmart has them, i don't know if any others have any. Quote
Sir Fred Posted March 25, 2011 Posted March 25, 2011 Fredericton Regent mall Wal-Mart has them, so I think once it`s reached the Maritimes it`s safe to say that it`s reached Canada wide. Quote
Ogre Posted March 26, 2011 Posted March 26, 2011 Wal-Mart at Markville Mall in Markham, Ontario has 5.5 boxes of figs on the shelf as of a couple of hours ago. Good luck finding hockey players or scientists though. I spent 2.5 hours feeling my way through the bags and barely found any. I guess they'd been picked-over pretty good already. Tons of sailors, musketeers, etc., still available though. Quote

Funny you mention that - those were the last 2 I was searching for as well. Managed to find them in about 15 minutes. I think the scientist is only 2 per box, not sure for the hockey player. Quote
ManitobaMoe Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 Oh my gosh, this is seriously a real topic?? I can not bear to read this. Have any of you seen the movie Canadian Bacon? Funny, but racist against Canadians, I wonder what you guys think about it. Are you guys just annoyed by the whole thing of jokes about Canada, or do you just find it silly? LOL, You realize that it was starring many famous Canadians posing as Americans. i don't find it racist against Canadians. It is just too funny to be anything but comedy :) Quote
IAmWillGibson Posted March 28, 2011 Posted March 28, 2011 I was very surprised to find S4 at the Dufferin in Toronto, 'cause that place is usually pretty far behind the curve, but there were at least 4 boxes by my count on Sunday afternoon. I pulled out a sealed one and got my set out of it after some feverish groping and snarling at an old guy who was fiddling with my 'keepers' pile. The Scientist proved hardest to find for sure. I'm unsure what goes into the thinking regarding the distribution. Also, I miss the barcodes a lot. They didn't make it easy to know what you're getting by any stretch, but no one here is just grabbing and buying blindly. And I felt like a real skuzz manhandling all the pouches for that long. Barcodes make it just a little easier for us set collectors, while not hindering in any way those that do wanna just buy a blind one [if there are any people like that]. Although hoarders mess stuff up... Ach, there's just no winning. [Dots helped maybe 40%, I'd say. When you could see them, they were great. But too often you just couldn't see them.] Quote
tedbeard Posted March 28, 2011 Posted March 28, 2011 (edited) CM Series 4 now @ WallyWorld in Victoria (Uptown location). Well, there was yesterday but some of my LUGmates have been buying whole boxes - which they promise they will be sharing around. I had to make Gilligan with the sailor hat: EDIT: just confirmed Uptown WallyWorld is sold out. Langford may have some otherwise I'd be checking London Drugs. They had them almost as fast last round.

legomaniac83 Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 Anyone heading to the US this weekend? Looking to get the Maersk train cheaper in the US ($35 more here!). Drop me a msg if anyone is. On a series 4 note, all the WM around here that had them, I saw none on the shelves tonight. They. Went. fast. Happy hunting! Quote

Same here I guess if this guy is also in the GTA; not for the Maersk train I guess but for anything else. The big sets if picked up in the US you can save a good amount. Quote

sok117 Posted April 4, 2011 Posted April 4, 2011 On to Chapters! I always feel so lame standing in chapters and feeling up plastic bags in the "kids section" , I usually go for mastermind, though the price raise does really urk me. Quote

Chrono Posted April 6, 2011 Posted April 6, 2011 Take a younger sibling/cousin. They are just selling series 3 in South Korea, I am Canadian!!!!, and I think I unintentionally snarled at some boy who came up to touch some when he saw me pawing them for ten minutes. I managed to find a snow-boarder yesterday though! Quote
Fives Posted April 13, 2011 Posted April 13, 2011 Hey everyone! I'm a bit late to the party, but whatever... I mentioned this over in the Pirates forum in the POTC discussion, but anyone in the Toronto area will be happy to hear that the Sherway Square LEGO Store grand opening is the weekend of May 13th! I put a link in the POTC thread, but here it is again: http://stores.lego.com/en-us/Toronto/LandingPage.aspx The link just goes to a page that tells you the details of the weekend. I'm pretty pumped!

Preferably on the Saturday, cause I don't think those minifigure t-shirts will fit me Quote

I'll probably be there on the Saturday also... I'll plan to wear my Boba Fett shirt. Quote

prateek Posted April 14, 2011 Posted April 14, 2011 Cool! I might come on the Saturday as well. We'll see though, since it's pretty far. Quote
sok117 Posted April 14, 2011 Posted April 14, 2011 Cool! I might come on the Saturday as well. We'll see though, since it's pretty far. where are you located? I can start a new discussion with you in it, I'm already chatting with Fives Quote
prateek Posted April 14, 2011 Posted April 14, 2011 where are you located? I can start a new discussion with you in it, I'm already chatting with Fives I'm in Scarborough. It's probably unlikely that I'll come though. I'll tell you if I actually plan on doing so Quote
