Might have some luck still if you hurry. Surprisingly not many children. I managed to get minifig 10/500 but they didn’t seem to be passed out in numerical order.

Glad to have finally met some LUG members in real life. The Steel City LUG shirts are fantastic btw!

I didn’t get to go but my Husband and son love me and managed to get the exclusive set and the Fishing Store for me. Does anyone plan on going to get the minifig tomorrow? I’m going to stop down early in the am!

They did not announce where the store would be. Exciting to see the developments at RPM though!!

I also loved the Castle/Huntsman sets that were out. When I free build I lean towards castles, villages, and the like. Although currently I usually build what my son asks for. Since emerging from my LEGO dark period I am excited about the Holiday sets! I’m…Read more
