Gryphon Ink Posted December 30, 2010 Do you know how long the sales will last? Planning to got on the 1st of Jan for the collectible minifigs. And do you know if chassis parts are available? Also (well you were) a Lego store virgin. And how much is a PAB (I'm assuming pick a brick) cup cost? Sorry for all the q's! I don't think there's a time limit on the clearance since they have to get rid of those sets, but I'm not sure the sets will last until Jan 1! Didn't spot any chassis parts, but they might have been there. The store I went to is the Rockefeller Center one, and it was completely crazy. Pick-a-brick was $16 for a big cup and $8 for a small cup. I don't have the cups in front of me, but I'd guess the big cup is about a liter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SilentMode Posted December 30, 2010 I'm getting very concerned about how much I've spent on Lego - you know you have a problem when you keep on buying and have no idea how much you have left in the bank! Anyway, today's haul was 31 S3 minifigs in total (16 from Westfield, 15 from Bluewater), a discounted 7570 (Ostrich Race), a jester keyring (also discounted) and two large PAB cups.

Also, I got the Lego Jan 11 mag, and it had said the minifigures are on the 6-9th of the month? I thought they are out on the first or does the online store have it out first, followed by the Lego stores (it was on page 42). EDIT Found a pic of a cup, is this the large or the small? http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Ehthak/LegoStore/loot.jpg Edited December 30, 2010 by Iysk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EDIT Found a pic of a cup, is this the large or the small? http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Ehthak/LegoStore/loot.jpg That's the big cup, $16. I got one big one. And no, they don't weigh them. Whatever you can fit in the cup is legit. They put a top on it at the cash register, and I guess the top has to fit. It doesn't take quite as many pieces as it looks like, because there is a hollow for a super-sized stud on the bottom (the top has a stud, so they stack). The guy I spoke to at the store was expecting Series 3 on January 1, but I don't think he was sure about it. Good hunting to you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I also bought Kraken Attackin' and Cannon Battle at TRU because I know Pirates is going away. I was in my dark age until October you see. I really want Brickbeards Bounty at least...

Masked Builder Posted January 1, 2011 I wanted to get Skeleton Bowling but the Lego store didn't have any so I got Battle For Geonosis. As it turns out that had the new S3 minifigures so I got the Hula Dancer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
