There is a Star Wars make and take event on May 6th, but you have to pre-register.

Class/Event name: LEGO Star Wars Make & Take Event
Date/Time: Saturday, May 6, 2017 at 12:00 PM
Length: 2 hours
Join us on May 6th 12-2pm for a LEGO© Star WarsTM building event. Build and take home a free Micro Princess Leia build plus take part in a clue hunt.

Bummer.  We have a birthday party for my son's best friend at 11:45 so I'm hoping it's easy to Bricklink... 

 

89 spots left at my local TRU (Emeryville, CA) after registering for three (my two kids and me). Thanks exciter!

I wonder what the Micro Leia build will actually be?

Of course we have 20 things we have to do that day, not to mention nap schedule.

Don't forget it's Free Comic Book Day that day as well.

I signed up my kids with about 75 spots left. We've got a busy day that day with ice hockey games that morning, a trip to the comic store, and this build. Should be fun.

So I reserved just in case we can make it at the tail end -

This is my first time reserving for one of these events - since it goes from 12-2, if I show up at like 1:45 do we still have a chance to get it?

I would think so, if this wasn't TRU, but this is TRU. I wouldn't count on it.

May want to call the store and ask to be sure.

I'm running under the assumption that they will either forget they're doing reservations, or, after the first hour/the reservation line is gone, they will start giving them out to whoever shows up.

Yeah I'm gonna do that closer to the date.  Thanks!

I got excited until I saw a Facebook post.

 

I think we'll survive if we miss this one.

Wow, poor kids. I won't make my kids build that one on the spot.

This makes the Kenner 1995 POTF2 "Monkey-Face" Leia look attractive.

 

Wait, no it doesn't.
