You can get it from the Lego stores in the Vancouver area, or bricklink

I've seen the Chicken man on lots of displays at TRU, so hopefully that means it's coming soon.

Be an "EGG"splorer!

On Saturday, March 19th be an "EGG"splorer! Look for clues around your Toys"R"Us store and solve the "EGG"citing puzzle to receive an exclusive LEGO minifigure.

Available in-store only. Event runs from 11am - 1pm or while quantities last. Min. 120 per store.
This is posted at toysrus.ca/events, with an image of the Easter Chicken minifig. It doesn't explicitly say that the 'exclusive minifigure' that's being given away will be the Easter Chicken, but I think it's a safe bet.

Looks like no age restriction either? This will be interesting.

Looks, like the chicken man figure is free for the next 2 days, with orders on shop@home.
While supplies last.

With double VIP and also the free Kai's Mini Dragon, it's a good day to shop.

Looks like Tweegster was right. Did the Vancouver Lego store jump the gun on the promotion earlier in the week? Other than that mention, it doesn't look like anyone saw this promo coming at the Lego Store and shop@home.

Edit **

Looks like the promo is online only. I was at my local Lego store today and seemed like many came out for the promo but the staff said it was only available from shop.lego.com.

I don't want to speak for Tweegster, but I'm sure he thought OP was referring to the 40202 Easter Chick set that goes alongside the Valentines Cupid Dog.

I feel slightly better about my early Saturday morning caffeine deprived "I have to order something right now!" response to finding out about the Chicken Suit Guy promo now that I know how quickly they sold out. Apparently there was much dumbassery from people placing multiple orders for single small items like keychains to get multiple free minifigs, probably for over-priced resale.

I don't know how much sense that would make. The smallest order I can make on S@H (for one keychain on sale) comes to $9.52 after taxes and shipping. There wouldn't be a ton of room for resale profit on that. Better to make $75 orders to get free shipping.

I agree entirely, I'm just telling you what I heard. But then again I also saw the Valentine's dog selling for $60 on Amazon the day after Valentine's Day when it was still plentiful at the Lego Store for $10 so I don't even try to understand the secondary market people.

I tried to make an order, and the Shop @ Home website crashed. This always seems to happen to me when there's a good sale or promotion.

Did you buy them or were they giving them away?

Need to get a few for Easter for the kids!
