Superstore Lego 20% off

I saw in the flyer this week that Lego is 20% off. Not much stock at the SW Marine Drive location, but YMMV.

Next meeting? Membership?

Hi all,

I hit the JOIN button at least a week ago but I've got not much response, so far. Would somebody PM with where the next meeting is and what the secret handshake is?

Pierre

ps. the word "discuss" is mispelled in the General Discussions description.

One of the cool things about the 4105 tub that I discovered after the TRU sale that Gumby mentioned is that you can make this out of it. http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=27012 That's right, a transmogrified Calvin into Hobbes.

Wanted: Black Falcon's Fortress

I'm interested in acquiring a Black Falcon's Fortress. The figs are not as important (or necessary) as the castle pieces itself. I bought a King Leo's Castle in the last few months and want to build upon it, but need more light grey castle pieces and this seems the way to go. I knew that I would reg...

AFAIK, TRU doesn't pricematch on percentage discounts, only if the ad specifically states the product name and price. At ToyRUs, they have ...

At http://legofigs.com/fameset_e.htm if you go under "Castle" you can see a figure listed as "Princess with cloth skirt" and the NEW sign attached to it.

Has anyone seen this at the Bellevue, WA Lego store? or anywhere else but bricklink?
