My prediction is that unless we get lucky, it's going to be a while
before even a 20% sale comes to pass at any kind of well run
establishment. I saw the TLG Starwars ad TWICE on Nickelodeon this
morning, just in 1 hour. Nice ad. Should boost demand even more. I think
spottyness will clear up and they will be solidly available within a
month or two, but no major deals till at least after this Christmas.
Nik is the envy of his 1st grade class because he's built 3 of the 5
sets now.
They were the talk of the OM (1) competition on Saturday too.
1 - Odessey of the Mind. One reason we moved to Ada is that Forest Hills
schools rock this competition on a consistent basis, with several
national champ teams in the last 10 years. Taya's team didn't win,
though. Maybe next year.
