Lego Watches
I was watching the news a couple weeks back and they were interviewing a small independent toy store (I think it was Kaboodles) and they were talking about the Lego Watches. She said that they were flying off the shelves and that they can't get enough of them and that they had already sold 2000 of them. Mainly the Star Wars ones. Wow!

Re: Lego Watches
I think they come with a fig. The ring that goes around the face of the watch is a cool element. I'm not sure what I would use it for, but it is cool.
Re: Lego Watches
I just didn't think a small independent store sold 2000 of anything.

Re: Lego Watches
Kaboodles is a pretty cool store(s). I believe they actually have 3 locations (1 in Granville Island, 1 on W.10th, and 1 on the Island). 2,000 is still a staggering number but given the number of shops and their prime locations, they have the ability to move quite a bit of product!
Re: Lego Watches
TRU has or had them but kept them in with the electronics. Maybe people did not know they were there.
Re: Lego Watches
Ya but the figs in the packs suck. They are not normal, but some kind of super cheap figs. the colours are off and the molding even seems different.

Re: Lego Watches
I take that back. My son got one in his stocking and the fig is as good as they come. You would not be able to tell the fig from one in a set.
Re: Lego Watches
Was it Star Wars? Those are the ones I looked at and was surprised at how horrid the fig was.

Re: Lego Watches
Yes it was. The colours were white and black so it is kind of hard to go wrong with those two.Platypus wrote:Was it Star Wars? Those are the ones I looked at and was surprised at how horrid the fig was.
