GS 30231 polybag - anyone spotted these?

Post by zak001 » Tue Feb 12, 2013 9:54 pm

I see the Galaxy Squad 30231 Space Insectoid popping up on eBay / BrickLink but haven't seen any indication of what retailer might be carrying them. Anyone got a tip?

I actually administer the Galaxy Squad group on Flickr, and someone posted that they had it in-hand:

They found it at TRU, $3.49.

I'm very excited this set is coming out soon.

I just checked TRU.com and it's not listed yet.

Actually, it is, but it's not available (listed, but no inventory).

Hrm... I wonder if this will be part of a freebie w/purchase promo - don't they usually show up on TRU's site like this in advance of those types of promotions?

I checked two stores tonight and neither had it. SW tie fighter polybags are still cluttering the racks...

If it's any help. I found the GS 30231 Space Insectoid In NYC. Queens to be exact. At the TRU in College Point and LIC. There were about 2 dozen at each location.

Hope that helps.

You live in Florida? Are you near Miami, 'cause the listing at my Toys"R"Us said that is the only place that has 'em.
