    I kinda missed the release date - now sold out everywhere I can think of and eBay prices are insane. I was told that they were a limited release and no more sets are going to be made (which is stupid considering the demand), so it looks like I've missed out on Wall*E. Which is a damned shame, it's one of my favourite films.

    You might get lucky, as I know a whole bunch of stores (TRU au included) that did not get stock or were told to hold off on putting it out due to the floppy neck issue. I was lucky to nab mine from shopforme and I'm happy to deal with the neck issue later once a good fix (official or otherwise) has been found.

    So keep looking at lego shop and stores as there will be another batch in the near future.

    Wall-e is back in stock at the Lego online store. Postage though is a bugger unless you have some other items you had your eye on to get the free shipping.

    I have been looking everywhere for the UCS Tie Fighter since I missed out in the Target sales.

    Arrive home with the kids tonight from their drama practice and see a giant cardboard box on the bench.

    My wife had bought it for me for Fathers Day/Birthday when it was on special on the Lego store.

    What a F'N champ she is.

    If you hadn't said she was your wife I'd be saying "marry her"

    I usually just cherry pick a a couple of figs from the mini-figure line. Pretty excited when I saw Series 14 - picked up Zombie Pirate Captain, Spectre, and Fly Monster (recently watched The Fly starring Jeff Goldblum). Went back the next day and grabbed Zombie Businessman, Banshee, and Gargoyle.

    Lego has been the bane of my wallet of late thanks to the shopforme prices and Toysrus sales.

    Picked up the Kwik-e-mart, Space Shuttle and some of the smaller city sub sets from Shop for me and got the Xwing, City Space Shuttle and Jango Fett and Commander Cody as well as two more sets of train points from the toys r us sale.

    Now to stay away from Big W sale prices!
