I believe he meant DUPLO and the part he is talking about is this: http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=4066pb367

Might have been John Langrish who's from Victoria, guy with glasses?
Yes, that is the guy.

Re: Vancouver LEGO store

I'm actually right infront of the apple store right now, setaling their wifi. :D Anyways, I got to the mall right before 8:00 am and there were already over a hundred people in line. Got into the store at about 10:45 and left at 11:15. Also got a picture with master model builder Erik. And I believe...

Re: Vancouver LEGO store

I'd say that's a good time to go in order to receive a Lego model. However, most people are after that one though and it's not like today where a good chunk of people are busy. Hopefully somebody who's there today can get a sense of when they ran out of supply. It was advertised the first 300 peopl...

Since I'm unavailable to volunteer or head down to the store on Sunday I'm planning to get my parents to spend $35 there without the discount to get the minifigs, just wondering how early they need to get there because I doubt they line up for me for it.

Re: Vancouver LEGO store

Went to the store today and didn't see any of you guys in there. To be honest, the store was quite small and crowded and the PAB is really lame. I hope they get more unique parts in the near future. Came home empty-handed.

Re: 8831 Lego CMF Series 7

Got 12 at the Fred Meyer in Bellingham today. Also got my very first double. shake I met an AFOL there with his son feeling up the bags and had a nice chat with him about the LEGO Store and such. Too bad there was no 10% off coupon at Fred Meyer.
