If it's any condolence, I don't think the scalpers will have as much luck charging crazy prices if people notice ToysrUs has this, saw it last night in Halifax, NS

Don't worry, scalpers will buy all of them too.

Also, it's $80, not $60. I think that one's in the wrong spot on the shelf.

Scalpers make me so angry.

I believe that one is on sale right now. 20% off. Not a bad alternative.
Visit my BrickLink store - 10% off if you mention that you're a ToysNBricks member. http://www.BrickAssortments.com

The Walmart ones are already showing up on my local Kijiji for $80 one day later. I tried my luck at a couple of local Walmarts yesterday morning after dropping my son off at school... no luck, sold out already. Employee at one store said they were gone 10 minutes after store opened.

Amazon.ca also had (has?) a similar sized box for $40. More power to those who aren't resellers.

My local store was only allowing shoppers to buy 2 at a time. So they boxes last 20 minutes instead of 10.

It looks like that one is 790 pieces instead of 1,500. So a much worse offer unfortunately.

A colleague bought a 1,500 piece (or close to it; it may have been the TRU set) set from Amazon.ca for $40, so the deal must have been live at for some period of time through the website.

Thanks to all who post here. I missed this last year and would have missed it again without the heads up. I managed to get 10 boxes (none for resale) - 6 online at 12:30am and 4 in store ( Thanks to grampa who got there for the Store opening). The kids are going to be a little excited at xmas when they see the pyramid of 10 boxes.

Got 'the Box' a few days ago (off a half-way down pallet), then got the BM Chariot yesterday afternoon. Which was a funny story, because there this family a front me: a mom and four girls. One of the girls was standing by the conveyor belt, when she saw said set. Her eyes nearly shot out of her head, and she start bugging her mom to get more Lego...just made me chuckle to see/hear that:)
