My local TRU has phangpyre mechs for 18 bucks each.......sweet deal considering the market value on this set is 40 bucks! Any normal AIOL would clear the shelves with this deal. How many did I scoop up you ask???? 0!!!!! I refuse to give TRU another dime of my money due to their poor bussiness/shipping practices!! *AIOL = adult investor of LEGO....... I am gonna TM that lol!!!

While I completely respect you sticking to your beliefs and the self imposed boycott. I think you are nuts Sometimes you need to look the other way and bite the bullet. Take advantage of whatever you can as long as it's not hurting anyone. I like the acronym!!

I agree, if you see a good deal, take advantage of TRU! On the other hand, Walmart online allows you to pick up a Fangpyre Mech online right now as part of a $29 Star Wars bundle so essentially 14.50 plus tax. I was able to add two Star Wars bundles to my cart and got free shipping. Both had one Fangpyre Mech in it. Be sure you click on the show more items on the second item to see the Fangpyre Mech. Of course this will only work if you want some Star Wars sets. I picked up a Luke's Landspeeder and Desert Skiff as the other part of the bundle. I just went back to look at it and the bundle is now $39, dang! Maybe it will be $29 again tomorrow!

I think you are nuts

Yeah I am an idiot like that sometimes.......
