    It appears there has been an early sighting of Series 7 in Calgary Alberta at a store called Discovery Hut.

    As per usual, Canada usually lags behind the rest of the world on such releases but this is hopeful.

    I have created a Roll Out map for this series so please add to it. Everyone is invited, not just us Canadians.

    NOTE: a Google account is needed to add locations to the map.

I don't think the correct link for the shared Roll Out Map was provided.

Also, does any one know what LEGO's official release date for these are, because last week at my LEGO I asked and they seemed to have no idea and had heard whispers from customers that it was in August. I'm curious when these should officially be hitting The LEGO Store.

Discovery The Hutt?
I'm not surprised one of those gangsters got his slimy paws on the minifigs first! :D

Funny, that's in the same mall as the official LEGO Store. I hope I can find some in Edmonton before I move back to Red Deer on Saturday...finding minifigs there is a right pain.

They are available at the Lego Store as well.

I was at the LEGO store today and an employee said series 7 hasn't been released yet. In reality, it hasn't been released at the LEGO store yet. I'm sure we can find these at other retailers in the near future before the LEGO store puts them on their shelves. That's how it has worked in the past.

The LEGO Minifigures website (http://minifigures.lego.com/en-us/default.aspx?icmp=COUSFR22Minifigures) says "SERIES 7 in stores May 2012". This is when I believe the OFFICIAL release is. However there have been many sightings of them in other stores. I think they are stocking up on them beforehand since they know this series will be HOT. However, they put them on the shelves too early and, that is why a handful of people own some LMS7 people.

We weren't expecting them until May, but they just arrived today at Calgary's Lego store.

Sorry, should have specified. They arrived at the Calgary store today.

Went to my TRU in Santa Cruz California to ask about the Batman polybag and I found Series 7!
Pricey but I got 5 of them. Will order more from others later at a better price.

Found series 7 in Maplewood, MN TRU. They had 8 left, and I got 3. Can't wait for the next shipment...

Amazon.fr is currently selling a box of Series 7 CMFs for 91,54 Euros (including shipping). It came up as 100,30 Euros in my basket (not including shipping), but when I went to check out it changed to 83 Euros and added 7+ Euros for shipping for a total of 91,54 Euros. Translated - that is roughly $120 as of the current exchange rate, which is about $2/each. I've bought this way in the past and it takes a couple weeks, but the product was good.

Side note: It's a very sad thing when a person purchases enough from Amazon that they can navigate the Amazon website in a completely differently language with no problems. I guess if they can train monkeys to push a combination of buttons, then I can do the same. ;-)
