Hot Buy so coupons won't work, but I got a Newt's Magical Suitcase for $15 after a $5 on $35 FC and Sweeps points. Combines with the stackable $10 back on $30 offer as well. Other sets are Aragog, grindelwald's escape and hogwarts great hall. At least a couple of the sets are listed at 10% over RRP, tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never understood this whole "over RRP" markup that various US stores slap onto desirable sets. In Canada, it's all RRP at TRU, other major retailers, and even at small independent toy shops.

I just got a newly released set for 70% off. Good deal IMHO. I don't recommend paying the list price at KMart, ever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southendsox Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Found this new HP and Unikitty minifigure display. Does anyone know where Perceval is on these? I did not have time to smoosh through them. From the last series, I recall one policeman being in the upper left corner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've only seen them at Target pre-release and then they were gone and one box at Barnes & Noble which is now gone. Nothing anywhere else since.

About 1/3 gone and looked like a bunch had been smooshed already. I didn't feel like going through them so I'll wait for my box to come in.

Similar thing happened with the 40th anniversary pack, went from 'no results in your area' to zero stock but at least showing a list of stores, to several stores having Qty 180 then the numbers started trickling down and that meant they put them out. Been checking frequently, tired of driving around for these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like walmart doesn't do much stock control on polybagged sets. It also seems like there is always one store in my area (never the same one) that just marks them down immediately.

Been checking frequently, tired of driving around for these. Tracker shows stock for the two stores I was at last night. Strange thing is that it shows 120 at the store where I actually saw them and 167 at the other one that I didn't see them at. I'm not trusting it though. There were about a dozen series 18 left at the one store, but everything in my area shows 0 stock. Someone could have cleaned them up, but I doubt it.

zskid00 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Walmart is in the middle of a big reset so they may be holding inventory in the back until they are finished. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calmdahn Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Boy do I have a Target story. Little late to the find Percival game but thought I’d give my local Target a spin anyway. Found a customer service person, their scanner said minifigures in checkout aisles and N43 in the toy section. Hit N43, one lone unikitty fig on an endcap. Scour the checkout lanes, nothing to be found anywhere. ask the rep to check the back he says there are five packs. I wait, he brings out three HPs, a Ninjago, and a TLBM. I snag thee HPs. Bring them home and check the feel guide and lo and behold, one Luna, one Harry, and one Percival. I feel like I just blew through my entire LEGO luck stash for the year with that. Just too easy! Btw if anybody needs a Hogwart’s Express right away I can get for RRP+$30 ea.

eliminator Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Looks like Lego is giving us a sneak peak at a future Diagon Alley? Folks are discussing this snapshot of the back shelf (out of focus) from the HC designer video on FB and EB. "Gringotts, Ollivander's, a Green small shop, a Red small shop and The Weasley's shop" 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a Hogsmeade WILL happen if DA is Nanoscale. On 7/25/2018 at 3:23 PM, CosmicSpeed said: We will just have to MOC a Microscale Hogsmeade and have a pathway from the Whomping Willow to the Shrieking Shack Seems like Lego might be learning from missteps with Star Wars and over production. Provide Minifig scale for play and some display potential, nanofig scale for display and some play. Rumors have a minifig scale Diagon Alley coming next year.

CosmicSpeed Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Mods, how does BP handle C&D's? Reddit and r/lego has been hit hard lately for leaks. I think especially with the Simpsons and Newt/Percival Brickheadz and now this Diagon Alley. Just a clarification of how to proceed here would be nice.
