ResIpsaLoquitur Posted December 28, 2013 Author Posted December 28, 2013 One of the Wal-Marts near me had a new polybag bin out that was populated with Mia Picnics, Umbaran MHCs, and a single Lone Ranger Pump Car. Target predictably has the Christmas polys at 50% off. Oddly, I had to check several Targets to find the Christmas train, as a lot of the ones I frequent were clean out (but still had Emma and TMNT). I did see a few other polys sitting in the Christmas section but didn't check whether they were also on clearance--somebody could have just stashed them there, as the store is always in chaos after Christmas.
ResIpsaLoquitur Posted December 31, 2013 Author Posted December 31, 2013 I saw the Birthday Cake polybag at a Lego Store today--one that I don't normally go to. It was full price at $4.99. Anybody else seen this at your local stores? I thought it was only released for Store anniversaries.
ResIpsaLoquitur Posted January 1, 2014 Author Posted January 1, 2014 The February store exclusive will be a Lego Movie set with Emmet and the Piece of Resistance. You need to spend $50 to get it; I assume the same will apply to S@H customers. Anybody seen any new polys out in the wild? We're anticipating a new City Police Helicopter, two Friends sets, two Hobbit sets, and a Spider-Man.
just2good Posted January 1, 2014 Posted January 1, 2014 Anybody seen any new polys out in the wild? We're anticipating a new City Police Helicopter, two Friends sets, two Hobbit sets, and a Spider-Man. Don't forget the Chima one... oh, and there's this one for City (30227):
ResIpsaLoquitur Posted January 7, 2014 Author Posted January 7, 2014 Here's an odd one: my local TRU had an abundance of 40011 Thanksgiving Turkey, which is from 2 years ago. They also had 40035 Rocking Horse, which makes sense as seasonal overstock from last year--but the Turkey is just weird. Oh, and they had a few of The Hobbit Lake Town Guard sets. Not many left. I'm keeping an eye out for The Lego Movie polybags there, since TRU tends to have licensed polys for only a week. Anyone seen any yet?
ResIpsaLoquitur Posted January 20, 2014 Author Posted January 20, 2014 Updating: - A number of Targets around here seem to be getting the City Police Fire Car poly at the cash register. I'm still seeing a lot of Ewar's Acro-Fighter, the TIE Fighter, and the Republic Cruiser. However, Target also seems to have jacked up the prices on cash register polys--they seem to be a dollar higher than I remember. Anyone else seen this? - Target's Valentine's poly seems to be the Coast Guard Seaplane. I haven't seen a matching "girl" poly yet. You'd think they'd include a Friends one, but no sighting yet. - Looks like Toys R Us will be getting the Movie Super Secret Police Enforcer. I haven't seen it in store yet.
HawkLord Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 Alderwood Mall TRU had about 20-30 of the Hobbit Lake Town Guard polybag...
ResIpsaLoquitur Posted February 2, 2014 Author Posted February 2, 2014 Reportedly, the Lego Movie Police and the new City Police polys are showing up in TRU this week. Anyone seen them?

Welcome to the world of retail...Target tries to get a last minute impulse buy for buyers in line. So, why not jack the price when Bobby goes, "mom. look!!"
ResIpsaLoquitur Posted February 15, 2014 Author Posted February 15, 2014 Target's after-Valentine's clearance is on, so the Coast Guard Seaplane poly is discounted to somewhere under $2.
ResIpsaLoquitur Posted February 23, 2014 Author Posted February 23, 2014 Target's Easter items are out. Included are that Lego Friends polybag where Stephanie has a little bakery, and 30187 Fast Car. The price has gone up a little--now it's around $5.50 US for a poly. (Yeesh.)
just2good Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 Target's Easter items are out. Included are that Lego Friends polybag where Stephanie has a little bakery, and 30187 Fast Car. The price has gone up a little--now it's around $5.50 US for a poly. (Yeesh.) Yeah, I got the Steph poly. While it is a great little set, the price hike ticks me off.
ResIpsaLoquitur Posted February 23, 2014 Author Posted February 23, 2014 Yeah, I got the Steph poly. While it is a great little set, the price hike ticks me off. Agreed. Of course, you could wait until after Easter for the clearance sales. However, Easter is almost two months away, so who knows if there will be any polys left? It's a calculated gamble...
ResIpsaLoquitur Posted February 28, 2014 Author Posted February 28, 2014 Target seems to be all over the place with polybags lately. I have something like 7 Targets near me, and they're each carrying, among other things: the TIE Fighter, the Republic Assault Ship, the Fire Car, a Police Helicopter from a few years ago, and Ewar's Acro-Fighter. As of today, I finally spotted the Batman Tumbler poly. My TRU finally had The Lego Movie Super Secret Police craft the other day, but only a few of them. They still have a ton of Iron Man vs. Fighting Drone, a bunch of Mia's Picnics, and weirdly, some Tonto's Campfire sets.
HawkLord Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 I mentioned this in the main Lego Movie thread, but I've found the Super Secret Police Enforcer polybag at two TRUs in the past week. One sold out fairly quick, while the other still had a few left. Still haven't found the Batman Tumbler at Target, but I have seen the Fast Car there.
ResIpsaLoquitur Posted March 9, 2014 Author Posted March 9, 2014 US Wal-marts now have the two Friends polys (Stephanie's bakery and Emma's flower stand) and a Rapunzel poly for $3.97 each. Given that Target has the Stephanie bag for $5.50, Wal-Mart would be the better choice....
ResIpsaLoquitur Posted March 30, 2014 Author Posted March 30, 2014 Toys N' Bricks is reporting that the last Lego Movie polybag--Wyldstyle's Micro Manager Battle--is showing up at Meijer, which is a US chain in the midwest. Man, I think the nearest Meijer is two states over from me. Anyone know if any other chain is getting them?
Maniac4Legos Posted March 31, 2014 Posted March 31, 2014 On the Learning Express website I found images of some polybag sets that are marked for purchase at $4.99. Among them is the Mikey's Mini-Shellraiser, which surprises me if they actually do have it available. Also included are Piece of Resistance and Police ATV, both marked as well for $4.99. I'm willing to make a purchase to experiment if they have it, okay? You may try it as well. Here are the links: Mikey's Mini-Shellraiser: https://lexnj.learningexpresstoys.com/buy/lf30271/lego-minifigure-tmnt-shellraiser-in-polybag Piece of Resistance: http://lexnj.learningexpresstoys.com/buy/lf30280/lego-minifigure-movie-piece-of-resistance-in-polybag Police ATV: http://lexnj.learningexpresstoys.com/buy/lf30228/lego-minifigure-police-atv-in-polybag
ResIpsaLoquitur Posted April 13, 2014 Author Posted April 13, 2014 Five Below in the United States (mostly on the East Coast, I think) is apparently getting a fresh wave of surplus polybags. Mine had Tonto's campfire, some Chima bag, and I forget what else. Reports are that the Lone Ranger's pump car and some others are appearing.
TheLazyChicken Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 At toysrus, I found the lego city police polybag 30227.
Darth Malgus Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Wondering if anyone has any polybags that they are interested in moving on. I'm particularly after Star Wars, chima and friends polybags. I live in Australia and they are nigh on impossible to source here...
lowbike1 Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Wondering if anyone has any polybags that they are interested in moving on. I'm particularly after Star Wars, chima and friends polybags. I live in Australia and they are nigh on impossible to source here... I have lots, star wars, friends, chima, city, toy story... I'll dig them out today and make a list...
