The HP Lego is selling quickly (but not quite as well as Bionicle.)  Of course
K*B is totally awesome for close-out Lego.  The SW Landspeeder, Droid Fighter,
Desert Skiff, Jedi Deul, Speeder Bikes, and Naboo swamp are all red slashed to
$4.99.  (K*B bought E-toys leftover stock when they went under)  K*B is like
any other store, you must be an informed consumer.  Some prices are higher
others are lower.

I go anywhere I can find a deal - I stocked up on Speeder Bikes and Naboo
Swamps at KB (and Naboo Fighters, which I got for $8 each, but those are
long gone).  For day to day prices, KB is simply awful on Lego, but I've
done quite well at some of their sales.

But, fwoosh!, $110 for Hogwarts Castle?  Just got it for $70.  :-)
