Went to one, got there way too early. Once they were getting closer to open there was about a dozen people...all headed towards the full range of sets. Had plenty...5 on the shelves of each I think it was. After grabbing the 3 I wanted & browsing the store for a few minutes, the Great Hall & Express shelves were empty. Yep. I was a bit worried as I checked S@H last night after hearing of the quick back ordering & there was nothing but a blank white box under the Express. I was delighted to see it on the shelf though. Man! What a nice treat that was. Jealous.

Wow, surprised to not see any HP purchases... 75953 Hogwarts Whomping Willow 75954 Hogwarts Great Hall 75955 Hogwarts Express
-
Seriously...this is worse than waiting for the care packages you order from S@H...the last hours are going to be hell.

Century Eagle....

Nice, advance pay is always good when new LEGO is incoming. I got an email last week informing me that double points are happening, June 30th till the 7th, in everything. As for prices, Hall is $99.99 & the Express is $79.99. Prices are all on Brickset.
-
Great, as always!
-
I am, LEGO store definitely now that it’s double points. Picking up the Great Hall & Express. I got word today that I’m going to be house sitting the following week...maybe I shouldn’t ask for payment up front. More sets for me!
-
Complete assumption on my part with early release news.
-
Hopefully this is an indicator of a good relationship where TRU left a void...and Target will now be the home of Bricktober. It doesn’t seem so because Bricktober definitely screams of a toy store specialty, but we’ll see.
-
Minor update...the Express is now on S@H. Come on July!
-
Just checked US, Express isn’t on S@H...but it is on Target’s. That doesn’t make any sense...why would the official store not have them? I’m wanting to get Great Hall & the Express...and plan on making the trip.
-
Got the CMF brick people.
-
I just called S@H, they didn’t say anything about the Express. Should I call the store I plan on going to & ask them?
-
Yeah, I would definitely like to see more teachers be introduced or reintroduced with this next run. I’m not sure if we have any hope with seeing the trolley witch in the Express set. But I’m holding out hope for some in the CMF. Getting Nearly Headless Nick is also a nice, somewhat obscure character.
-
Seeing as the HP sets focus on the earlier movies, I would consider the hospital where my important as it relates well with Chamber of Secrets. And again in Prisoner of Azkaban. Plus a Madam Pomfrey would be a welcomed minifig.
-
Right now I just have two 6x3 store bought tables, they do the job well enough. I have plans for a set up where the legs are going to be shelves, like storage cubes, for my plastic containers(I keep sets together in Sterilite tubs).
-
Indeed. What better way to celebrate his birthday.
-
Just thought this recently...what a missed opportunity to not release the sets the day before the official date...
-
Another Batman Movie villain...Doctor Phosporus. I am down to left, Clock King.
-
Oh! That is genius. I was puzzled on how you did it as well. Now I see it. I’ve been picturing a building with that those of entrance...was going with the cinema from Town Plan before I saw this. Great work!
-
I dream of a 90* turn streetplate so the sidewalk doesn’t get all funky. That or release tiles that you can use to smoothly can bet the curve.

[Poll] What do you do with new sets?
Vindicare replied to mocbuild101's topic in General LEGO Discussion
i always build the sets. Depending on the set, I leave it built for a week or so if it’s not going into my town. Then they get dismantled & put into bins & labeled with the number- I’m a set collector. I rotate display pieces every few months. -
What did those Duplo rocks do to Bricksburg?!
-
Well, my TRU is down to about 12 sets total, 6 of those being Salazar Brickheadz set...so my trips there are done, sadly. To combat my sadness I took a trip to the nearby Target & picked up 70611 Water Strider.
-
I liked it quite a lot. I was embarrassed by my dad & brother, as they just sat there like bumps on a log when they very clearly, , should’ve been excited.
