Anyone seen 10937 asylum breakout set for sale anywhere?

I got mine during the May 4 sale ('cause I can sell Han Solo to take a bit of sting out of the price tag + free delivery/VIP points). I'm pretty sure it's available online from a few sellers like Mightyape and Shopforme, plus Bricklink/Ebay too of course.

After 14 boxes and 6 hours all up, I finally found Mr Gold at my local Myers. Also they had all the new Superman sets.

I've dot code checked over 10 boxes and got nothing. I have seen them at K-Mart, Target and Big-W Armadale (though the K-Mart ones were being very roughly feel-checked and literally chucked aside by scalpers), and Myer and Target Cannington.

I only found 1 Mr Gold and I don't intend on selling him for a ridiculous price online, but I also bought my set of 16 and some doubles. Also the dot code on Brickset is totally different to the one I got on my Mr Gold, so I'm not sure if the dots vary from region to region. I must also say that I used 3 different stores, K-Mart, Myer and Target.

Congrats, hard work by the sounds of it! Any chance you can post the dot code of your Mr Gold? The dots apparently change every batch.

This grosses me to no end, since it defeats the purpose of a randomised prize and someone else is going to have to foot the bill for the discarded bags that now have effectively 0% chance of containing a prize. I hope TLG changes how they package these things and realise that a golden ticket would not have worked if people could feel the difference in chocolate bars.

Target at Macquarie Park/ Sydney had Series 10 Minifigures. I did not end up buying any since they were all roughed up and obviously checked by scalpers. Target further had two Monster Fighter sets "below cost".

Why do people assume these are roughed up, or gone through by Scalpers? By now, I can just about guarantee every kid & their parents know how to feel for minifigures in these packs. I've been to a store in the past where there are 3 or 4 of us feeling for specific figures & none of them were grabbing hoards of any in particular. Simply put, people don't want to pay $5 for a random chance of getting different, or their figure of choice!

I was talking to a mum at school today and she reckons her son got a gold one last night, but she had no idea it was a rare one or that she could go to the lego website to see where they have been found! She joked that she doesnt even know where it would be and that it will be in her sons room somewhere :0 Then I found myself telling her how I've been looking for them and that other AFOL are searching in shops all over Australia and then I realised she was looking at me like a was a complete nutcase!

Congrats Brickus on finding one! Glad one of us got one! I now have the fever big time!

Does Mr Gold come sealed in a plastic bag within the gold foil packet? If so is it the hat you feel for or the fact that there is a plastic bag inside the packet. Local Kmart still had sealed boxes this morning. I went through 2 boxes got a set of 16 but no luck for Mr Gold.

Not sure how you could feel for the plastic bag, He has a diamond too which should be easy to feel for but I'd stick with his top hat first then confirm with diamond.

11 Mr Golds now registered as found in Australia. I'm heading into my small country town today for some shopping and hopefully find a Mr G that's if they even have any S10, wish me luck!

I could not feel the inside bag at all in my Mr Gold, I found the staff, then the lightsaber confirmed it. The inner bag is the same type found in actual sets, like the Tauntaun, Rancor, or any other specialised moulded piece that comes out of China.

Sorry for the late reply Aussie BJ, here is the dot code for anyone who wants it.

All good Brickus, thanks for the code have saved for future reference.

So my local Target didn't have any S10 and there was only 1 box in Big W which I can safely say contained no Mr Gold.

Thank you Brickus for the dot code, I found one after 12 boxes. I think it is only work with batch 510B3. There are still 3 unopen boxes in Target Southland. Good luck guys.
