Well, my trip to TRU (as I announced earlier this week on the BLOC
newsgroup) was pretty successful.  I spent 3.5 hours at my local Toys'R'Us,
working on a new mosaic while I was there.  The results of that are shown on
this page:

It looks like the store manager is interested in making this a semi-regular
occurance, with themed works during different holidays.  I don't know when
the next one will be, but I'll be sure to announce it here when it happens.



Nice work Adrian.  I'm glad you found an interested TRU manager.  Sometimes
it seems they have forgotten the brick aisles all together.  Good luck!


Surprisingly enough, both Donna and the store manager said that they do very
good business with Lego in this region. (Of course I wonder how much of it
is my doing...)  There were a lot of blue buckets on the shelves at the
beginning of the week, and all but one of them were gone by the end
(probably 20 buckets total)  Plus, I saw a good half dozen or so people
buying lego while I was there.  While not a huge amount, there were more
buying lego than any of the other construction toys combined.
