Doesn't seem like it. The US online store says sold out too.

I'll try to pick a set up in Orlando in a few weeks at the Lego Store.

I saw a few of the actual models (Sydney opera house etc) for sale in the Lego store in West Ed a couple months ago, I believe there is a store at Iron Mills if I'm not mistaken as well.

Isn't the only official Lego store in Canada the one in Chinook Mall? If I'm not mistaken, it's at least the very first one in Canada. I'm not sure if any more have opened in Canada.

EDIT: Looks like there are a few more stores than I thought.....

I've seen the opera house at the Chinook location - pretty sure it was around $300+ or something. Looks cool but I'd rather build technic stuff :dunno:

Seen these all over the place didn't think it was such a big deal to find.

Got Guggenheim and Fallingwater.

Overpriced for some of the items but I'm sure it was a licensing thing.

The Architectural Studio is a specific set that isn't sold in Canada.

All of the Architecture series are sold in Canada... except this one... and its that one we are talking about.

I don't really understand, is it not just a big box of white and clear bricks? So if you want bulk white it's great but otherwise......

Its a tool to play around with architectural design concepts. It is not your traditional Lego set where you build one or two set models.

^ Wow thats exceptionally cool. I wonder how much of that you'd get in a box. It would be cool to build an elaborate mansion, or some of downtown city, but for the size of box you get in that pic, it doesn't look like you'd be able to build too much with just one box.
