Seems like there is a lot of inventory for sale right now on EBay, but I think they're definitely worth picking up if you're willing to be patient.  I was able to find one at my local TRU recently, but the box was a bit mangled.  I was still pretty excited to see it.

The boxes were almost mint condition actually, but I havent closely examined it and they have those box wires that go around it too. I might end up picking two of them tomorrow.

Sea Cow listing is back, but no stock. No idea when it happened or how many they had :(

2 in-stock couple days ago. Got shipping confirmation few hours ago ;) Too bad not BOGO and had to pay $10 shipping :(

I was at my local Toys R us tonight and they had some Black Manta Deap Sea Strike at $34.98, Technic Container Truck (42024) at $69.99, Hobbit Attack at Lake Town for $34.98 and Witch King for $12 and some change.  Also, Jurrassic world T Rex Tracker were on the shelves.

Are the Simpsons minifigures worth picking up? A local TRU still has them, although they are priced at rrp of 3.99

No, you can still find them for $2.5 at chapters.

(and they still don't sell)

Thanks for the heads up! Just snagged 3 death stars, 1 ewok village, and 1 sandcrawler. I had a 15% off discount from Toys R Us due to a  previously damaged order. Placed the order over the phone so they confirmed stock. Was waiting until everything I wanted was in stock before I used this discount. This at least brought the death stars closer to $500 which was where they were at before Toys R Us increased them to $599. These deals are killing my wallet however. Just received my 50 antman sets from Walmart a couple days ago so it was a $4000+ week! OUCH!!!

Yea for 599 lol

I know, it's higher than MSRP, but I'm ok with that.  It'll increase my average death star cost from $500 each to about $530 each (6 total)  but when these are selling for well over $1000 I'll be glad I have 6 instead of 5! :)   Remember, this is Canadian currency not US as I see you're from the USA.

PS: Link is still working for me this morning...

Damn, when was Antman available?  I missed that :(

Yup, which is about $420 US - ish.

Yah that would be a big factor if one thought the dollar would stay this low for as long as one would hold this set. For me that seems a little unlikely. There's better opportunity out there right now IMO due to all the retirements. But if I had a lot of capital to blow (more than 10K), I would absolutely do this.

Since when 599$  - 15% =500$ add to this your local tax ... Are we missing something here.

No we're not missing anything here.  He didn't say he spent $500 after tax, he said the 15% discount brought the sets "closer to $500". ($510 by my math)  And the amounts he's referring to are all before tax. It was never stated he got the sets for $500 taxes in.  He paid $10 over retail for 3 death stars, which is a sweet deal in my book!
