BrickFit26 Posted December 31, 2015 Posted December 31, 2015 My future son-in-law works at a local Southern California Target and he tells me they have the Series 15 boxes in the stock room but can't put them out until January 1st. And another friend saw them out at another Target, tried buying them, but the register refused to ring them up; the cashier told him she couldn't sell them to him until January first... So I am optimistic for Jan 1 here in the US! --Mr Bill I checked with my Target and they have nothing about series 15. They still have quiet a few monster figures from S14 though. My target aways been kind of late. Quote
Robert8 Posted January 1, 2016 Author Posted January 1, 2016 (edited) The heck... http://shop.lego.com...uestid=24914218 Out of stock? (Happy new year! See you in 2016!) Edited January 1, 2016 by Robert8 Quote
telaruhn Posted January 1, 2016 Posted January 1, 2016 I feel like that's a clever way for them to release the figures in February... Series 15 wasn't in the January 2016 catalog I got in the mail, unlike Series 13 which was in last year's catalog. And the Series 15 listing isn't on the US S@H website. So things do not bode well for those in the US hoping for a January release... Interesting to hear about Target, though - maybe that's the only store chain that's gotten the figures? Would be weird IMO, since I'm sure a lot of boxes have been made, so maybe it's more of a distribution problem. Quote
LegoCityNut Posted January 1, 2016 Posted January 1, 2016 Lego Shop At Home GB is showing as Out of Stock for the next thirty days, too. Quote
rob-ot5000 Posted January 1, 2016 Posted January 1, 2016 Had the Target employee check the back room, she brought out a fresh new box...of series 14. :/ Quote
x105Black Posted January 1, 2016 Posted January 1, 2016 Had the Target employee check the back room, she brought out a fresh new box...of series 14. :/ What a bummer. I was really hoping to find some series 15 at Target this morning. Quote
KCMatze Posted January 1, 2016 Posted January 1, 2016 German LEGO shop site shows them as out of stock too. What a cheap way to push back the release last minute. Calling my local store tomorrow, let's see what they say. Quote
elkkthunedr Posted January 1, 2016 Posted January 1, 2016 really wished these came out today. my local retailers, mostly target still have lots of the monster series to clear though Quote
MAB Posted January 1, 2016 Posted January 1, 2016 They haven't pushed the release date back. They are available in store in UK Lego stores. Quote
Robert8 Posted January 1, 2016 Author Posted January 1, 2016 I hate to say this but this is a mess I'm seeing a lot of reports of facebook of people getting these in retailer stores And, according to the guy who posted this video, even some LEGO Stores are selling them Quote
KCMatze Posted January 1, 2016 Posted January 1, 2016 Strange...where is the light blue on the Shark Suit Guys Torso?! Quote
Robert8 Posted January 1, 2016 Author Posted January 1, 2016 Strange...where is the light blue on the Shark Suit Guys Torso?! On the back Quote
KCMatze Posted January 1, 2016 Posted January 1, 2016 Oh okay, so he just put the torso the wrong way Was just wondering! Quote

8BrickMario Posted January 1, 2016 Posted January 1, 2016 ...then why not sell them everywhere? Delaying a CMF series in certain parts of the world is really unfair. Quote
MAB Posted January 1, 2016 Posted January 1, 2016 Probably distribution issues, or marketing strategy holding back to try to clear other items while people have gift cards to use. Different release dates for sets are not uncommon. Similarly end dates too. Quote
Amazing Bricks Posted January 1, 2016 Posted January 1, 2016 Going to my closest Lego store to find out if they put some of these suckers out already, wish me luck! Quote
sunhuntin Posted January 1, 2016 Posted January 1, 2016 going to try in my town today. new zealand, so part of the commonwealth. fingers crossed! Quote
BigPoppaBrick Posted January 1, 2016 Posted January 1, 2016 Got a full set at Lego store in Sheffield today. Noticed that there appears to be a lot of sets available from Lego that aren't available from Argos, Toys r us etc. Maybe Lego reserve the intitial stock for their own stores to drive footfall and greater propensity to purchase more. I know I spent a small fortune in there today. Quote
gedren_y Posted January 1, 2016 Posted January 1, 2016 Given that we aren't getting the Football series, Series 15 may have a slightly later run in the US. Series 15 might have a longer run here too. Quote
Coopa182 Posted January 1, 2016 Posted January 1, 2016 going to try in my town today. new zealand, so part of the commonwealth. fingers crossed! Toyco has an ETA of 7 Jan, so fingers crossed everywhere else such as Farmers and The Warehouse have them soon too :) Toyworld has no mention of them yet, but I will keep checking. Quote
Amazing Bricks Posted January 2, 2016 Posted January 2, 2016 These do indeed come out in February sadly https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1540/23813998970_f5b7cd6f33.jpg Quote

Robert8 Posted January 2, 2016 Author Posted January 2, 2016 These do indeed come out in February sadly https://farm2.static..._f5b7cd6f33.jpg And the prophecy was fulfilled.......... We will get 4 sets in the first half of 2016.. Not sureabout CMF Disney, because we will get a "normal" one in February and GERMAN SOCCER MINIFIGS for the European Championship... :look: Quote
