So I was in the Lego store I tend frequent (due to it being near to where my partner works), and one of the store assistants mentioned that they still had some left over polybag kits, from one of their promotional days- where you turn up and build a little kit, then get to take it home. So it pays to be friendly with you local Lego store, and to have that VIP card. Because they need that feedback and who doesn't like free Lego?
