I went to two Marshall's (still looking for a Creature Lair)- they do have the same Halloween stuff as TJ Maxx and Homegoods, but no D56 yet. Something I saw non-monster but nice and spooky is a bride and groom skeleton statue I liked an all their stuff is very inexpensive. I'll be checking Homegoods again this week.

I still have one Creature's Lair available, if anyone is interested.....or desperate.

After reading these posts in late July, I found that my local TJ Maxx had a couple of Lairs and I snapped them up pronto. Last week, on a whim, I stopped by an out-of-town Marshall's  and relieved them of both a Monster/Bride and Dracula set that were still available (August 19). Both places had lots of Halloween snow globes but not UM versions.

Not having the diorama packages with me at work, I am wondering about the AC adapters. Is this a Radio Shack purchase or do the sets require a specific (D56) adapter?

I bought a regular power convertor from walmart, and both models they carried had the wrong plugs.

Does anyone have an extra Creature's Lair? I searched high and low back when people were finding them and had no luck. Now they're rediculous on eBay... Anyone?

FWIW, Michael's has the power supplies (for the lemax spooky village pieces) on clearance 50% off this week.

I need the Frankenstein and Drac sets.  Anyone?

I have also been looking for these.  If you live in Northern VA, there were 2 Dracs at the Manassas TJMaxx today $12.99 brand new in box and unopened,  I bought one of these.  Also, there was 1 Frankie and 2 Creatures at the Fair Oaks Home Goods in Fairfax on Friday, but I did buy one of the Creatures there, also  $12.99  but had no boxes and I think Frankie's battery box was missing.  If anyone in Northern VA area knows any were else  to find these please pass it on!  Still need any others!
