Since Toys R Us left Mayfair we have had to travel to Nanaimo to shop in person. That ends now as the new location in Uptown Mall has opened it’s doors. LEGO is on the second floor by the windows overlooking the central plaza.

Here’s hoping it is a success even though it’s biggest IRL competitor (Wal-Mart) is just the other side of the fountain. Kind handy if you want to comparison shop in-person.

The Ultimate Hobby and Toy Fair is back and VicLUG will be there as usual with an Ulitmate LEGO display. This year, our display theme is Space, more specifically: Moonbase. It will be a display that is out of this world!

The fair is taking place May 25-26 at Pearkes Arena. You can find event information and ticket sales at the Ultimate Hobby and Toy Fair website.

See you there!

VicLUG hopes everyone has a great time at BrickCan this weekend! Welcome from where ever you have travelled from.
