Going on a Lego Hunt...

Christmas is calling to me, faintly... I can hear it saying "those neat ideas you have? You had better start looking now. Remember what happened during the Christmas seasons of '02 and '03? We don't want a repeat now, do we?"

So, I am on the search for Lego people. Just the little people that come WITH the Lego sets, you know? Not the actual sets, themselves. I did find the regular people, called something like "city workers" or something like that, but I was thinking more like extra Star Wars or Indiana Jones guys. Because THOSE are what my kids love best and THOSE are what they lose first! Especially Evan, my action figure freak. He could take 2 or 3 Lego men and play for hours with nothing else. Between the 2 boys, they have about 12 people we can find and about 20 that are lost... So, anyone know of ANYwhere that I can buy just the cool Lego people?

Just checked Ebay because we have a dwindling supply of cool men here too....Lego men, that is. They have TONS! Only problem, you have to win em which is maybe more fun....

Melissa said...

Ebay was going to be my suggestion too! It's like a huge garage sale... what could be better? :)

BTW - maybe I missed this post, but, how is your hand??

You can find them at Lego stores like the one in Disney World. Check it out and see if they have any way to buy from the store online.

Good Luck!

Go to lego.com
Go to the online shop.
Click on By Catalog.
Pick the autumn catalog, and view it online.
If you flip to page 22, you should find a big collection of Lego city guys that you can buy as a group.

No idea, but did you read the Bloggess's post about the transvestite lego people? It was hilarious!

Hope you find someone! And good for you to get a jump start on shopping for Christmas.

Well done you, on getting started so early for Christmas. Man, I wish I was that organized.

Absolutely thrilled that your readers are in the know when it comes to Lego people--that seems to be that part that my kiddos enjoy the most!! I just realized on Thursday that we were exactly 3 months from Christmas--yikes!

Blessings!

You are so right Tracey. We always loose those guys first. It would be nice to get a bag full of extra guys.

I love legos!

I wonder if I asked for some for Christmas if my mom would think I was nuts....I'm 29...that's not to old for legos is it? :)

Vodka Mom said...

I got them in a school catalog- School Specialty. You can shop ONLINE. Yahoo! We love legos in kindergarten!

Kristi said...

We're not quite at the lego stage over here, but I can't wait until she is. Legos are awesome, and you're pretty savvy to be getting such a jumpstart on Christmas.

Gal on the Go said...

Not sure if they have them out your way, but here we have a Lego store all Legos all the time. Maybe that would help you?

And how is your hand Missy?

I have been evading the hand question, but Yay! It's healing! I can actually TYPE with both hands again! I have been doing exercises regularly to keep my hands flexible (I am double jointed in my hands or something cuz I can practically touch my fingers to my wrist behind them...) and I am now able to voluntarily lift my ring and pinky fingers without concentrating!

My sister's neurologist said it sounded like a pinched nerve and it appears he's right. THANK GOD!
