Only detail is I do not have a paypal account. I should have clarifed that in my earlier message. So I would only be able to take paper payments.

Hey,

I know I'm the one who started this thread, but has anyone else who's gotten to one of these pick-a-fig stations seen if there's an Umbridge? Kaminoan suggested the possibility in this thread, and looking back, there were pink legs in the station I visited. However, I didn't see any other Umbridge parts (especially the hair), which I would have recognized and snagged. If there are Umbridges out there, I may have to swing by the Tysons store, which is significantly closer to me. (BTW, I'm in Maryland, not Virginia, which is why the Potomac Mills store is a long schlep from home.)

I didn't see any Umbridges at either Bay area store. They did have her pink legs, but nothing else. I did manage to snag a new Anakin hair though... the one and only in the bin. :D

Only the pink pants are there. The reason being is the bin caters to female customers and all girls like pink in Lego's opinion.


The anakin hair is an extremely lucky fluke. They don't come in the pack the stores recieved so i have no idea how it got in there.

What the...they have this bin at the Bay Area stores? I was at the one in San Mateo this weekend and could have sworn there was nothing of the kind! Please say it ain't so Steve...

Oh, and these bins are nothing new, I've seen them at the store trips of both cons I've been to, and at the store in Birmingham, UK, when I was there more than a year ago.

This is mighty good of you. Kinda makes ya think the world's a nice place after all. I too will be sending you a PM as I don't have the option here in Canada or have the money to buy the big sets before '08.
When I was a lad my mother told me that if I stood around all day with my mouth open a weasel was liable to mistake it for his den and jump right in. If you have something to say, say it, otherwise, beware of weasels.

Ahh, isn't that sweet. It is nice when the Little yellow-headed minifigs find love. I don't think that I have paired any of my up - YET. :)

I picked up a selection of all of the new/unusual parts at our local (Bellevue, WA) LEGO Store. Looks like the same parts are showing up in all the stores:
