Please give it a go, the worst that could happen is nil response.
A couple of questions for Australians....
Has anyone found old stock appearing at a toy shop, I mean one that you
would normally frequent and have a good idea at what the limits of their
stock is ?
Has anyone else seen any Lego at any clearance shop in the past 5 years ?
Chain stores are a bit different, because they have their own warehousing
system which can slow the cycling of stock.
I think we might see UFO sets in toystores 20 years from now, a country toy
store I visited today had 10 of the two large UFO sets, accounting for 50%
of their Lego display. What had previously been a 90% Lego display rack had
shrunk to probably 30% Lego/70% kinex.
