  1. Good day.  Apologies up front if this is not helpful news for US collectors, especially around KY/OH/IN.  Walked into my local Target on a feeling this morning and discovered employees putting HP sets out on the shelf.  Surprised to say the least considering I am not in a coastal US state where they get things quicker, and it isn't 14 Aug yet.  Picked up the Astronomy Tower, Room of Req, and Forbidden Forest.  Also grabbed some of the new SW sets out.  Employees could not verify when the other sets would arrive.  Asked about when the CMF would come out and they had no idea.  While doing the self checkout my fantastic wife walked up, told me to look up, and before my eyes on the pegs were rows of HP CMF2.  Grabbed three off the front and got HP, Shacklebolt, and Bellatrix.  Rang up at $4.99 each.  Hopefully Wal-mart prices remain low like they did with most recent CMF.


  2. Although Brickseek showed zero results in my area at Walmart, I still made a hopeful run early today.  Nothing to be found so I asked a drowsy employee for help. He returned with an orange end cap display from the stock room.  Apparently there are 2 boxes worth per display. Of course, only 2 figs were missing. You can guess who. As for those suggesting the use of bump codes for faster perusing, caution as I found 2 distinctly different bump patterns despite looking at 10 spider boys, and same for the cat suit and elephant figs.  Although, possibly not new info to those collecting for some time.


  3. My son shared MicroJow's post with me today. Stopped at 4 Target's today, asked employees to check in back, and new cases came rolling out. Only encountered issues at one store where an employee stated they had been told by corporate not to put out until 1 Feb, but turns out the guy was a Lego fan and let us purchase the ones we wanted before he took the box back to the stock room. The Queen and Faun just got settled into our castle MOC!
