    Went to Leeds white rose for opening this morning and i have to say i was quite dissapointed with the range there to say its a big store. Mainly had pre school type toys, not much lego, no toy story items so trekked upto moortown store. To say its a smaller store it had equally as good a stock as white rose. Again no decent lego or toy story items. Sooooo then i went to greengates store again as the other 2 almost identical items in the shop.

    Has anyone seen any harry potter lego or the lego creator stuff in stores?

    I have been to the white rose 9wasn't impressed for it's size), Colton which was ok for it's size but didn't have what I wanted and the new wakefield one. The had quite a bit left and they we're stocking shelves but I only wanted hello kitty things and couldn't see any.

    They did have lots of lego though but I didn't look to see what kind it was because my little boy is a bit young for it yet.

    Has anyone seen the Hello Kitty Cosmetic case in any of their stores?
    Have only visited one store and they didn't have it, so was wondering whether to check the other stores.

    I read further back it isn't included :(

    :hello:To everyone who ventured to Upton Wirral this morning. I arrived at 7.30am as had a last minute change of plan to go to store. The Lego section had been well depleted by the time I arrived, but I managed to find a few bits that people were placing back on the shelves after reviewing their trollies.

    Can someone set me straight on the cars 2 ultimate LEGO FRANCESCO set - when I got home it is on my receipt as full price (ie. no half price insert underneath it), but I have actually been charged £12.99. Looking at amazon and other sites it looks to me like they retail between £25 - 30, so it looks like I have been charged the correct amount?

    Managed to pick up:

    Moshi gift pack £9.99
    Lego star wars £4.99
    Lego pirates cabin £5.24
    Playmobil knights compact £4.99
    Remote control Mcqueen £15
    Connect 4 £5.99
    HM RAF Figure £6.50
    Lego cars ultimate fransesco £12.99
    Fireman sam norman / dilys £2.49
    Lego Hogwarts game £12.50
    Counting Puzzle £3.49
    Cars 2 twinpack vehicles £4.50
    Lego Mater £2.49
    Sainsburys Pirate Ship £20
    HM forces Jet Fighter Plane & Pilot Figure £29.99

    The last 2 items had hugely inflated RRP's and I think I probably paid around what they are actually worth at half price, but got them to put away for birthdays as my boys will love them.

    Popped into Neston Sainsburies an hour ago and although they stock about 15 lines of toys (if that!) they had a shelf full of cars 2 lego sets down to £7 (3 different types - tokyo pitstop etc). They also had plenty of the Sylvanian (? windmills - didn't look too closely) at £25.

    Glad I don't work for customer services as I suspect they are going to be busy over the next week!!!

    On your list also the hogwarts game is only £2.50 more on the amazon site so nowhere near half price really;)
