Moar from the Lego store visit today:
- Pirates advent calendar (they are on sale right now, only 10€ each)
- ork, i mean troll battle pack
- a small pick a brick cup full of stuff
New Lego is much more expensive than used Lego, but still... i could not hold myself back.

all lego stores to my knowledge have the build your own minifig as a staple, however so far they havnt had anything in the local lego store id really love to have, like say a wizard, etc

Yes i do belive it is not a staple I just know when I went like two years ago it was a new thing for all stores to have them. It used to be just the one in Florida had it.

i like how the manta ray monster comes with a bit o the reef. and the power miners set is most good for building vehicles with the larger tires and whatnot
