I'm been extremely busy lately and haven't had much time for shopping, but
only recently I went shopping for LEGO and I'm wondering what's happening.

There is heaps and heaps of Jack Stone and nothing else. Lego shelf space in
stores is getting smaller and smaller and nothing worth buying anymore (I
feel disappointed). Am I the only one who feels this way?

Is LEGO's plan to eventually only sell through S@H? This is what it looks like.

I found the Harry Potter Troll and could not resist so I bought one - but
the troll is disappointing. I really think they should have also included
Hermonie and Ron, after all it was because of Hermonie that they went into
the bathroom. You can only move one of it's arms - what gives. They could
have easily have made both arms movable and why not the legs. And the only
bit that requires building is putting the head and clothes on.

Anyway, on another note, is anyone from Sydney planing a S@H order?

Thanks
Anthony.
