You didn't see the UCS X-Wing?


I don't think we will ever see it in Canada stores.  I guess Lego think we are
not rich enough to buy US$150+ sets like 8448.

I've seen the UCS TIE Interceptor in Toys Toys Toys at the (formerly?) Eaton
Centre.  Sadly, my friend who was shopping with me saw it about 5 seconds
earlier, so he got to buy it :)

The same store reportedly had a Falcon or two as well, but they sold quickly.
No reports on the UCS X-Wing.

Apparently Toys Toys Toys restocks roughly monthly.  You should probably call
and ask the staff about it before you bother to go yourself.

I don't think there's any indication that Canada's not getting the big sets;
just that they're in short supply and getting snapped up by evil people like my
friend :)
