ISO8T0 Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 Did you take the Summer Riding Camp? No. There were 2 in big store and at least two more in friends shop. Quote

corduroy Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 Headed to Legoland Florida next week for the first time. We've been to Legoland California a few times but never to Florida. Any interesting finds in the past few weeks? Any suggestions for us? We are flying so we are limited to what we can carry but I understand they will ship if you spend enough. Thanks!! Quote
legone Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 (edited) I went there a couple of weeks ago. Nothing special, the big shop was a bit of a let down to me. The "rarest" one there was Xwing 10240. Some prices have been marked up above MSRP, but I don't remember which one. I don't remember seeing Summer Riding Camp at all. Only Sunshine Ranch 41039 Edit: sorry I didn't notice pstebbing's post was 3 months ago LOL Edited April 12, 2015 by legone Quote

Almost got ready to drive there and get HH and TH till I read the date!! Quote
corduroy Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 Sorry to get your hopes up! I am hoping for good things and I will be sure to report back if I find anything amazing. Thanks! Quote
Fcbarcelona101 Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 Not your fault, just me for not reading properly! I am trying to go back there if only to check the park out. Went on opening weekend and, as expected, it was packed. Plus, it rained lol Quote
steakyboy Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 Was there Friday before Easter. Couple red fives, tower of orthancs, lots of slave 1s and tumblers. Picked up couple painting eggs and romantic dinners, there were lots of both. Be sure to bring mini figures to trade with citizens, they can't say no and if you have good trades they keep better figs in their pockets. Most mini figs they trade are from recent cmf series. Some have custom name tags for their minifigs. One citizen had a mini millennium falcon, another a cool Chima head. Couldn't convince lady to trade for the Harry Potter wanted posters she had on her name tag. You can even trade with parking fee booth person, kids got a kick out of that. Unfortunately I brought better mini figures with me than they had to trade, and I brought some chumps. Most of us brickpickers will have this issue. Great rides for lil kids, fun had by all. Quote
corduroy Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 Thanks, steakyboy. I didn't think about trading minifigs! We got a ton in a craigslist deal a few months ago that would be perfect for trading. Quote
corduroy Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 Hi everyone, Back from Florida and just wanted to share what we saw at Legoland Florida. Series 2 Mixels were everywhere and were buy 2 get one free. They had giant bins full of all Series 2, with brown being the most plentiful. Simpsons minifigs were also included in the buy 2 get 1 free sale.No Pet Shops anywhere (including Downtown Disney Lego Store) but Legoland did have a few Palace Cinemas and Parisian Restaurants. Lots of Slave 1s and Tumblers but can't recall seeing any Red 5s. They still had tons of PEE and Valentine's Day Dinners.Nothing else that sticks out in my mind. We had fun and there were no waits on any rides while we were there on Sunday. 1 Quote
STLBH Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 I'll be going to Legoland Florida on May 4th. Hoping there will be a special May the 4th be with you deal going on there. Does anyone know if there are any exclusive items to Legoland that might be worth investing in? Quote
Tgnmonster Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 Hello all!For those of you who have been to Legoland Orlando, we are planning a trip to Universal Orlando this summer, and had a couple questions.1. While we have a couple of the buy one, get one free admission vouchers, would my 17 and 15 year old kids enjoy Legoland if we decided to go for a day, or does it skew too young? We are all Lego fans, but they obviously like an engaging theme park as well.2. Do you have to have park admission to access the large gift shop/store that's onsite? Quote
gmpirate Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 They are definitely too young, but if they are big fans, it may be worth it to check out at least once. Quote
legone2 Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 You need to have the park tickets to buy at the shops, but my recent visits did not find anything useful. I'd rather order from Lego directly.BTW vehicle parking is $17 and up. Quote
Tgnmonster Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 Ouch. Thanks much for the feedback! I think this answers my questions, and I'll stick to the Downtown Disney store when I'm there. Quote
Alpinemaps Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 I don't know if LL Florida does this, but at LL California, you can buy an admission ticket to go in and shop, and as long as you exit the park within an hour, you'll get a refund. They call it a shopper's pass. If you spend $20, you get your $15 parking fee back as well. 1 Quote
exciter1 Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 I plan to go to Legoland here in a few days, but we'll be taking the kids and one big kid, of course. 2 Quote

steakyboy Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 Bring mini figures to trade with the "citizens" they can't say no, but if you are a collector, you'll have better figures than them. You can even trade with the parking booth attendants. Sometimes citizens have minis in their pockets and you can ask too. Age wise, my 9 year old liked it, my 6 and 4 yr old loved it, but lots geared toward younger and if kids are teens they will be pretty bored. Heart lake opens soon. Lots of purple and green walls were up for construction when we went. Quote
d4m60d Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 Hello Guys, just went before 2 weeks to the Legoland Bilkund, and clean out the R2's. It a was amazing and stupid situation ;). Four adults with 13 R2's on the cash counter. People looked and thought stupid germans or anything else. It was a thrill! 8 Quote
Guest brickcrazyhouse Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 You four probably had the biggest smiles in the park. Nicely done. Quote
d4m60d Posted June 13, 2015 Posted June 13, 2015 (edited) Best thing about it, knowing, that this set is still EOL, and we grabbed it for retail price, yeah :)! This was a business without any risk!! And the biggest Lego Store in the world is very lovely, only limit was the credit card :/. Edited June 13, 2015 by d4m60d Quote
tacsniper Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 (edited) Anyone notice when is the best time to go shop in Legoland? Is January the best time of the year to destroy the credit cards with end of quarter/year sales? Edited June 30, 2015 by tacsniper Quote
ISO8T0 Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 this thread should be merged with this one: http://community.brickpicker.com/topic/12563-legoland-florida-lots-of-rare-finds-in-plentiful-stock/?page=1I went to Legoland, FL near the end of January this year and found the exclusives to be picked through already. Perhaps shortly after the new year? 1 Quote
