Check out this auction:

http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1643512573

The kicker to me is when the seller wrote:

"I contacted a local Toys R Us and they WOULD NOT SELL it to me, because the
item had been PULLED OFF THE SHELVES!"

I've been to 4 TRUs this past week, including one two hours ago and they all
had at least 5-12 of these sets on the shelf.  Has anyone ever seen TRU
taking this set off the shelves?

They are still in the shops in the UK.

FYI, here is the current status of a poll I am running on my web site www.lug.sthost.com
Were Lego right to recall 6776?
Yes  15.79 % (3)
No  84.21 % (16)

lawrence
