LEGO 8803 Collectable Minifigures Series 3 Availability

[BrickUpdate]

They do NOT seem to have hit New Jersey yet. But my local TRU manager was aware of them, and said he hasn't seen any on recent shipments. Target is also without them. Soon.... very soon! :)

Went to TRU in Rockland NY and nothing. Nothing at Target. Atleast I picked up the scout polybag and TS3 polybag. I'm thinking of holding out until Lego starts selling them.

I just got back from Toys R Us, two boxes of series 3 mini figures on the shelf. I took a photo - see above. I was there last night and the manager said that they hadn't got any in yet. I asked when the next shipment would be, and he said last night, confirming that they would go out today if any arrived. I got to the store around 2, and the boxes were already picked through a bit.

As others said it is REALLY hard to distinguish the bumps, using the feel or glare method. Some packs are better than others, but in the end, it's all very confusing.

I picked out about 18 packs, trying to avoid dot patterns for figures I knew I didn't want. Who knows what I'll end up with! I don't think there were any Elves left, I went through each pack in the box. I imagine all the elves, baseball players and fishermen are gone. No idea though.

They did qualify for B1G150%.
The local Target DID NOT have an in stock.

Thanks!

Those look so beautiful -sniffs- I went to my local TRU and no box in sight. Come on southeast. THey probably have them today since they typically are thursday shipment days, but they said come christmas they get more shipments in.

Sigh...

which TRU in NJ please?

[BrickUpdate]

Livingston. It seems to have a few people who are watching it like hawks. 2 of the 4 boxes went right away, and by the time I got there, the remaining two boxes were picked through. All the elves and gorillas were gone. I'm not complaining at all - just mentioning the situation. Good luck!

I just picked up the last 54 bags at TRU in nanuet, NY today. They don't have anymore in the back. Man the dots are really hard to see. I can't identify half of what I got.

[vynsane]

I'll have to check out the Poughkeepsie TRU this weekend. TRU Times Sq, NYC didn't have them.

Lady at TRU said that they get trucks everynight and they restock after midnight. Went back this morning and nothing. They open at 8am

You haven't ordered from the TRU website, have you? Only one of the items shows up as 50%, no matter how many you buy (rather than half). Also, there isn't free shipping on $49 or over when ordering the figs. Try putting 60 in your cart - it'll come out to be well over $200.

woooow. I just got a total of $524.99. there's got to be something wrong with their system. It worked on series 2 when they came out. They must be trying to get people not to buy from their online store.

Finally showed up in the Portland, Maine TRU.

Spotted three boxes, and all pretty heavily picked through so they probably hit the shelves yesterday.

With the BOGOHO offer and 10% back, I had to strongly resist the temptation to pick up the remainder of what was left and have a more leisurely sort at home, but did pick up the Mummy (well, reasonably sure I did -- I'll know as soon I open it! ;)) and one other random fig.

Try doing phone orders. If they can't fix the sale price to BOGO 50% off on the phone, they might offer you a better deal. ;)

[stocktheodds]

I just called Toys R Us and was told in order to get the BOGO 50% off you would need to place orders of 2 at a time... this obviously wouldn't qualify for the free shipping. when placing an order for more over the phone they said this item doesn't qualify for free shipping but they could do a $20 credit towards the shipping, but it still ends up being outrageous because you have to go over the $49 to get the $20 credit.

[oocaleb101oo]

So there's a BOGO 50% glitch and also the absurd "estimated" shipping cost glitch. They are like soooo close yet so far away.

[brocksbricks]

Yeah, on the phone just doesn't work. Only 1 discount, just like online. Said they couldn't manually correct it. Not to mention the shipping charge is exorbitant! Oh well, they'll overstock these ones too I'm sure.

Kinda makes it cheaper to ebay it with the way TRU online is going. At least you know what you're getting.

I recently called my local TRU in Silicon Valley, CA, and the associate told me they had over 100 in stock, for $2.99. She said if the BOGO 50% was online, it should apply to instore purchases as well. Wonderful! :D
