I think the city/forest theme sounds cool and I also like the small city vehicle idea - takes me back to the Legoland sets of the 80s. But maybe that's just me.
TRU had the City advent calendars today (already?) for $34.99, and they were 10% off along with all other City sets that weren't already 30% off. The shelf tag in the City section was for SW Advent Calendar $39.99, however. I don't know if they had SW calendars too and sold out, but at least I know they have a spot for them. Series 5 Minifigures (1 box) that were put out on Friday were already sold out after 2 days. I saw them on Friday morning, but they had already been picked through so I decided to wait until they show up elsewhere. I also saw the Harry Potter trunk cart set. I left with a few of the 30% off sets that weren't already TRU-marked up: Marina and Spaceport.

MY Walmart will mark things as clearance but they'll ring up as MSRP and they'll argue with you about how you must be lying about the price.
I go into Walmart maybe once a year

I agree Wal-Mart usually sucks, but sometimes you find deals there. But everytime I got a killer deal from Wal-Mart, it was pure dumb luck - I just happened to be at the right place at the right time. For example, when King's Siege went down to like $30 at the same time that my local Wal-Mart had restocked them and it was on the one day I decided to go there. I hadn't even heard about it on the internet yet.
As far as the red "clearance" stickers. I asked a toy associate about that oddity about a year ago. I was told that (at that store anyway) when an item is marked discontinued in the Wal-Mart computer, meaning they can't get or won't order any more of the item, they slap those red stickers on them with the current retail price, just to mark that item as discontinued. She said that way when they do an aisle reset, they know which sets to take out and put on an endcap or clearance shelf to get them out of the way of the non-discontinued product. She said the manager will then determine if those sets will be marked down or just remain full price. I guess if they sit long enough, eventually they will get marked down. What's funny though, is that if it sits long enough, enough time will pass that LEGO will discontinue it too and then collector's who missed it will be more than happy to hunt one down and pay the full price anyway, because it would be cheaper than looking on eBay. Most managers probably see this happening and that is why alot of sets don't go clearance at Wal-Mart anymore (at mine anyway). This varies from store to store of course.

That xmas was the last time I got anything good from Walmart... It was my biggest purchase too and dropped 250... my trunk was full of giant lego boxes...
I think it was empty like that same night... I went back and there was maybe 1 set left...
I did manage to pick up 2 castles, 3 troll boats and 2 SW sets. I think I picked up that giant Indy pyramid too but sold that.

[quote name='180husher']Kids and I found Series 5 at a Five and Below store. There was only half a box left but we got everyone we wanted except for the dinosuit guy. No more buying cases of these things...just the ones we like.[/QUOTE]
lol... I'm still debating buying a case of these. I'm just waiting till next week, you guy's in the east coast seem to get them a week or two before us.
EDIT: Amazon has matched TRU on the Space Center, $48.99 tax free for must of us.

Ah so that explains the red sticker mystery. The last time I struck gold at Walmart I got London Escape for 25 because they were in the middle of remodeling. Another Walmart seems to clearance out Legos at a faster pace than usual, and I was able to score Hogwarts for 60.

Hit up a Five Below while on work travel today. Was nicely located in the same mall as a Lego store near Baltimore. Grabbed 20 of wave 5. Did ok. I got 2 gladiators which was nice, but also got a ton of boxers, dwarf clowns, and the lady explorer/archaeologist with the monkey. Stopped in the Lego store and was disappointed that they didn't have any of the cheap magnet sets. Instead they'd clearly broken them up and put them in the build a minifig bins since 99% of the bin parts went to the Prince of Persia and Female magnet sets that are on discount. I did leave with 3 tubs of pick a brick as they had some nice parts I needed.
A nearby Wal-mart had the $60 racers set for $40. Was tempted but I really only want that spiky helmet the one guy has (To give to one of my orcs). I'm not THAT crazy.....usually.

Fellow MSTies on CAG! Awesome. I'm a huge fan. Wish I could make it to Rifftrax tonight at AMC but I couldn't get the night off.
Got a few Series 5 today. Found it extremely hard to feel the packets but I was in a bit of a hurry.
Boxer, Dwarf, Gladiator, Dinosuit and two Zoo Keepers.
That leaves me with two more "must haves" - Mobster and Cave Girl. Not a bad haul.
Also noticed a new polybag at TRU - Harry Potter with his school trunk and owl.

[quote name='postureking']Got 5 more at the Beavercreek TRU. Boxer, Godzilla suit guy, another Cleopatra, gangster, and the fisherman. The boxer and the gangster kick ass. The boxer's hands are gloves and move around just fine. The gangster's pistol can be stored in the case - a nice touch.[/QUOTE]
All this time and I never realized we shopped at the same TRU. I managed to grab 8 from the partial box that remained on Sunday, went back Monday for a few more and they were sold out. Stopped in today again, and they had put out a brand new box. Managed to grab enough to complete my collection as well as a few doubles.
Also made the seven minute trip to Blokhedz today, which is in Yellow Springs, OH. It's the store Brick Forge opened, since their site has its headquarters in Yellow Springs. It's a very small shop (as are most shops in YS) that sells mostly LEGO but also has other building sets such as Stikfas and Kreo Transformers sets. Most of it is over MSRP, but the Brick Forge parts are really the main reason to visit. Almost everything is sold in related packs (such as musical instruments, Halo inspired armor) rather than per piece and it works out to be cheaper than the site even before shipping is factored in. They also had a small selection of parts at the register for .25 cents a part which I unfortunately didn't take advantage of. If you're in the area and are interested in Brick Forge parts, it's worth a look. If that's not your thing, you're better off going elsewhere for your LEGO fix.
As for the Brick Forge parts themselves, they're actually really impressive. This was my first experience with them, and they're actually really nice and practically indistinguishable from official LEGO parts. Only issue is that they're fairly expensive for what you get, which is a bit off-putting.

Had a good find/deal at my local Target today.
I saw the Prince of Persia Battle of Alamut set in the clearance section with no price tag on it. Scanned it and it said was no longer in the system or something like that. Took it up to the checkout and the cashier had the manager come with some pricing gun to find the price. Manager said the last price shown was $40 but she knows PoP sets were marked 75 or 90 percent off so she said she'd give it to me for $10 (guess original price is $80 and the $40 was at the 50% off price). I said how about $7 and she said ok as long as you don't return it. I said you got a deal.
Pretty good score thanks to the manager (nice girl named Lindsay).

I picked up a Quest For Time at target for $12.xx, I found a Clone Turbo Tank that was marked $83.xx but scanned $107.xx but I decided to leave it.
I did find a TS3 Trash Compactor that wasn't in the system, I tried to talking to the manager to see if I can get it 75% off but the last price on the scanner was showing $24.xx so I just left it. The lady at the register was an idiot though, she wanted to give me the set for the price that it was marked which was $42.xx.

Stopped at 2 tru and they both had series 5. both had about half a box and i picked them all up. no limits there. one commented that they are selling like crazy and the other smiled and asked if i cleaned them out. haha. will figure out what i got today with the damn bump codes.
Edit: Did good at first store. Out of 32 figs i got 13 different figs. The second store i could tell the packs had been fondled vigorously but i bought them anyway. Only got one more guy that i didnt have yet, 10 different out of 30 at that store. Down to the Royal Guard and Gangster.
P.S. The bumps are the devil. Feel everything. Even if they have the same code.

It's much easier to just feel the packages then buy everyone of them in sight. I picked up 8 packages and got 8 different minifigs in probably 8 minutes of "feeling". Gonna go back again later for the remaining 8 to complete my set.
Love that TRU is selling them for $2.99 instead of $3.49 too

After the last few sets im sick of sitting in the store for a half hour sweting my ass off trying to fondle packages without someone bothering me. Especially considering i keep a set for me and my brother plus extras as presents and the damn multiple bump codes for each figure. Much easier to sit at home in the AC at a table and figure out what i have there. Thats why they give you receipts, so you can take the extras back.

I guess. If you have use for the extras, then go for it. I just don't like dropping double/triple/quadruple the amount of money on these damn things. I love them, but it's hard to stomach spending that kind of money on them.
Plus, as you said, the bumpcodes are hard to use a lot of the time.

Cashier at my TRU said they have gone through 10 boxes of series 5's since they came out last week. I was able to nab all but five of the 16 figs. I've got fingertip soreness from feeling up bags. The cashier said they have people spending HOURS feeling the bags. Somebody cleaned out the dinos and gladiators.
There was a middle aged japanese lady feeling packages with me, she wanted a "Gojira" (no kidding) she never found one.

I was feeling bags in TRU two different times so far. I got 10 (5 each time) so far, I have not opened them yet hopefully I did not get doubles. Well I opened 2 and I got the dino man and the girl with monkey. I was not going to get them all but I only need 6 more, so maybe I will go back. I was feeling the bags and all of a sudden pieces fell out of one onto the floor, either someone already opened it or it was a weak bag.

This series is fairly easy to feel out. The only trouble spots I've had are Boxer headgear/Cleopatra hair and the Graduate hat/Clown pie feel similar. Now I'm the proud owner of two boxers and two grads. Two boxers is okay because the boxer has a reversible head (the only one on a collectable fig?)

I have to agree about this series being easy. Cleopatra should be one of the easiest because of the brick dress. For the boxer, I felt for the body, you can feel the gloves on the side. The graduate's hat is square so I don't see how that could be similar to the pie.
I always get the "I hope no one thinks I'm weird" look every time I walk by the Lego isle and people are feeling up bags

All kidding aside, I think the open bags with pieces falling out are not caused by "over-feeling" but rather people took them home, carefully sliced an inconspicuous slit in the bag to check what figure was in it, and then returned it back to the store. It happened to me when I bought a bunch of Series 3 at Wal-Mart several months ago. I got home and was feeling my bags and pieces started falling out. I looked at the bags and noticed they had all been sliced down the middle, just under the flap that covers the middle portion on the back, so that the slice could not be easily seen unless you lifted up the flap. I was pissed and took them all back. From then on, I always just try to buy from sealed or fresh, un-picked-through boxes or direct from Shop@Home (my first 16 S.5 is on the way!)

What Series 1 parts have you all seen in the Lego Store's build a minifig bins? I've found the forestman, clown, cheerleader, magician, astronaut, caveman and wrestler. I keep hoping that the zombie will show up... I was pretty surprised to see the astronaut the last time I went (picked up 6).
On a semi-related note, any word on which figures are winning/won that popularity contest Lego sent to the VIP members weeks ago? Again I'm hoping for the zombie to show up in that collection they said would be out.

New set news! Posted on Brickset before they were asked to remove it by LEGO.
"Brickset member supersympa has found entries at a Dutch toy shop website for the next Exclusives:
10223 Kingdoms Joust
10224 Town Hall
10225 R2-D2
10226 Sopwith Camel
10227 B-Wing
There are no pictures or descriptions yet but a release date of 1st January 2012 is quoted."
Town Hall could be the next modular (I hope so) but it could possibly be a large City set. A Sopwith Camel is a type of old plane (I had no clue what it was). Kingdoms Joust could be interesting. The two Star Wars ones are pretty self-explanatory.
