JSN Posted December 14, 2011 Posted December 14, 2011 Hello, I am soon going to be moving to the Middle East (specifically Oman) and was wondering if anyone knows how easy it is to get Lego over there and how the proces compare to the UK. I would be mostly looking for collectable minifigures since I would just buy anything bigger online and get it sent to my parents house. Does anyone know if these are readily available? Any help would be much appreciated. John
freakwave Posted December 14, 2011 Posted December 14, 2011 hi, I can only tell you the view for Dubai as it was a few years ago. There was a franchise LEGO store in all the LEGO store beauty, but Jan Beyer told me that there was no official store there. Somewhere I read that this That one was at the ibn Battuta Mall. unfortunately it closed shop. It had a good PaB selection, but the stocking of sets was poor. It was never easy to get something. I remembered that I was waiting for the 8421 to arrive but in vain. Finaly I bought it abroad. Prices we more than Central Europe. The other location to buy LEOG were Toys'RUs which was pretty well stocked, got my 8288 there and then a local bookstore, Magrudy's. With a limited selection. For Oman I cna see that in Muscat there's TRU and Magrudy's as well. I can't tell you prices. and apart from the big cities there is very little chance to get LEGO. fW
Flare Posted December 16, 2011 Posted December 16, 2011 I can't help you much, but honestly here in Israel, all LEGO is so expensive I buy everything from USA or Europe and just get it shipped here. Good luck!
