LEGO Loot from LEGO HQ in Denmark!

So, my dad went on a business trip recently to Billund, Denmark. On the trip, he got to visit the LEGO Employee Store or P-Shoppen, and he got quite a number of LEGO Sets for me and my siblings.
LEGO P-SHOP
Interestingly, the sets that he bought in Billund were much cheaper than the RRP we have here in Singapore, and even that of the USA which pretty much has the cheapest prices due to the exchange rate and everything.

The Loot
These are the sets he bought: 75053 The Ghost, 41035 Heartlake Juice Bar, 2 21109 Exo-Suits, 2 30247 ARC-170 Polybags, 2 30244 Anakin's Jedi Interceptor Polybags and 30115 Jungle Boat Polybag.

And no. In case you were wondering, the LEGO Friends stuff is for my Sister, not for me.
And yes. I did buy 2 Exo-Suits, 1 for Me and 1 for my Brother.

For those of you who are more discerning, you may have noticed that there was a parts error in the earlier production runs of the 75053 The Ghost set, in which one minifigure had Black hair instead of brown. I've just built the set with my brother, and unfortunately this edition came with the Black hair. Looks like I'll be getting another parts order soon.

In case some of you were wondering about the prices, all the sets he bought as shown in the first picture only cost a total of 990 DKK, which is around $214.25 SGD, inclusive of taxes. This is a VERY GOOD DEAL, considering The Ghost alone retails locally for $179.90 SGD and the Heartlake Juice Bar for $59.90 SGD.

The Exo-Suits were also much cheaper, setting us back only $32.46 SGD each, and the polybags only $3.25 SGD each.

Considering the Exo-Suit and Polybags are really hard to find in Singapore, this has been a great shopping trip. Thanks Dad!

On a side note, this has made me really want to go for the LEGO Inside Tour! I guess thats one more thing to add to my "Bucket List".
