Just confirmed all 3 of those sets plus the larger Castle set w/900+ pieces on the shelves at my local TRU as well. The Castle set was $109.99.

Am I incorrect in thinking the $12.99 set is MSRP? And the $22.99 set I'm guessing is normally $19.99 MSRP, not a bad deal if you have the $10 giftcard w/$40 purchase coupon through your email.

The minifigs and prints look awesome, I will definitely be picking these up!

Here are those pics.

I confirmed these sets qualified for the BOGO deal, so I'll probably pick up 2 of the small army builder sets. Imo these new figs will fit in pretty nice with my LOTR/Hobbit sets.

BTW if your local still has leftover CMF bags, they should scan under BOGO as well even though the promo description states only "construction sets" qualify.

I noticed the new Chima build-a-hero bags in the same aisle, but no new Chima minifig sets. Also saw the smallest and largest new Superman sets. No new Star Wars sets yet and I'm not too familiar with the new Galaxy Squad sets so I couldn't say yes or no on those

I saw the Castle sets at Dedham, Ma. I also saw a few City ones. I tried to buy a few small city ones and when I got to the register they scanned do not sell until 8/1 and they would not sell them to me. :???: it was 60011 surfer rescue. It was $7.99 so not a good buy, but with the BOGO 50% they would have been msrp.

i'm really done with TRU, I spent 30 minutes trying to figure out what to get and ended up walking out (i had a $5 off $25 coupon).

I'm not a big fan of these ones. I know Lego must include things like catapaults and vehicles for playability, but I'm not so keen.

Can't wait for that sweeeeet dragon set to come out, though. And I've wanted that spiral staircase element since I saw it in a Hogwarts set!

Just scored 4 of the 70400 Forest Ambush army builder sets. They qualified for the "BOGO 50% off" in-store deal, plus I also used another "$10 giftcard w/$40 purchase" email coupon they sent me. After adding a tube of M&Ms to get over the $40 limit, I paid $40.25 before local tax AND got the $10 giftcard. VERY HAPPY to nab these new sets at this price! :-D

Odd that I cant find an expiration anywhere on the site for the BOGO50...

Edit: (Anikinsvader posted in the USA deal sub forum that his e-mail from TRU said it was good until the 18th)

BTW no signs or anything showing this sale in store at my local TRU.
I bought two S10 CMFs to test as the local staff get very unfriendly fast if you ask about sales.

Picked up two of the gatehouse today and stacked it with the $10 card for $40.
Really happy to get my hands on them!

I agree the sets are the best possible as I'm really not a fan of lion knights but I just love me anything in the Castle line. Sets do look better in person as well imo.
i just wish there wasn't a carriage in every single line ;p

This particular in-store BOGO does end this Saturday the 18th. Most of TRUs promos start on Sunday and end the following Saturday

RRP for the Forest Ambush is $11.99 via the NYC toy fair.

Lol, I couldn't help myself this week with this BOGO deal!

I grabbed 2 of the 70404 King's Castle, $109.99 + $54.99 = $164.98 - $10.00 giftcard = $154.98 or $77.49 each before tax. Then I got the $10 giftcard right back with another coupon! :clap:

Almost 23% off MSRP before tax on newly released sets makes me ecstatic, but my wallet jumped out of my pocket and ran away crying as soon as I got home ;-)
