It was in one of the two local Sainsburgeries. That one had Lego on discount whereas the other doesn't (just big gaps where I presume the new stuff is due). May just be an individual store thing.
It never looked like a £20 set to me but I had an eye on it in case it dropped to a better price for what is inside when it was retired.

With the addition of having Minions with it. Don't worry, you can leave them in the box and improve the set with other minifigs.

On a related note, anyone seen Elves issue 3? It wouldn't surprise me if that's had exciting news too.

Had a surprisingly good run though, and Nexo Knights looks great. Picked up the SW Lego mag for the first time this week, the little Millennium Falcon is really quite neat. -Jim

I've now seen a lot of the Nexo Knights stuff in the Glasgow LEGO Shop. Rather nice looking stuff. The concept of the line is suitably bonkers and looks rather fun.
There are some fantastic new parts in the line as well. The red V-windscreens are lovely, and the grey blade pieces that they are using for large sword blades are rather nice too. I can see this being a rather good line.

I really like the mixing in of lots of classic Castle parts as well, it's a really nice aesthetic. LEGO have been good at this recently, Chima had some great design and some of the Ninjago vs Pirates sets are quite appealing.

There has been an awakening. Have you felt it? Lego Star Wars polybag fever has struck me, but I really hate paying more than £4 incl. delivery for these things. Managed to get a First Order Tie Fighter and Poe's X-Wing (30276 and 30278), but the Star Destroyer and Kylo-Ren's shuttle (30277/30279) are proving a little pricey at the moment. Presumably because they haven't properly been released? Edit: Also want to modify my mini Millenium Falcon to have an EpVII satellite dish. A grey 3794 should do the job nicely

eBay. Although there is a local shop that buys sells them too, their selection is limited.

I know of no shops that sell them. I can only get them at the Swindon Brick Show. I often see reviews and think I'd like to buy them but can't.
Civilians love them. I ran a Lego pub night once and the polybags I had stockpiled from SWB went down a storm.

I really dislike the Angry Birds lego sets. Not because of the theme, but there's waaaay to many custom parts being used!
Also it's snowing on Mt Fuji

New source for buying Lego... Website called brinklink has a marketplace that seems well organised, even if the web design is late 90s and really unintuitive in places.
Just be careful to check senders shipping costs before ordering.
