ALERT!!!!
My local Toys R Us had all the GC toys on sale at 50% off! I picked up the $15 airship for $7.99 and the Alethiometer for $9.99! Woo hoo!
For those who have resisted getting one (like me), it looks MUCH, MUCH better outside the package. The detail is really nice. I just have to do something about those crappy plastic hands....
