[US] Polys in the wild...

starfire2

I found #30352 at the checklanes at my store.

They still have the Valentines day display up at the local SuperTarget near me. Even if they do get this bag, Im not impressed by it as it is not really unique.
Heck they still have the capt American motorcycle at the one near me, at least that is well worth the 3.49 price tag.

Found #30352 Police Car and #30400 Gymnastic Bar at the Foothill Ranch Target; they were located at the Easter area on the back bins. Got three of each :-)

The police car is pretty simple, not sure if it can even be called a "car", but it comes with a nice printed tile.

The gymnastic bar is even simpler, but the little boombox with the smartphone printed tile is pretty neat.

Fount 6 bags of Batman in the phantom zone at a local target - 39 cents per bag. Very happy.

The Target I visited yesterday (closest to me) did not have any #30352...just searched on BrickSeek and it shows there's 30 in stock...will go to the second closest store and see what happens. 

Even though it's a small and simple set, I would like to have even a bigger police force in my town.

In the Easter stuff at target

madforLEGO

Wow, guess Ill be saving some money. I already got a few of the Friends one, and the Cop car? Meh

Astrobricks

Can't get enthused about the police car, and especially not that gymnastics bar. It doesn't look anything like a real piece of equipment. Neither looks like it has many useful parts either.
I sure wish Target would put all those #30279 Kylo Ren's shuttles on clearance for $0.39. They're going to have to get rid of them somehow.

josekalel

For $3.99, I can't complain about #30352; it's a very simple build with a nice minifigure. I have never thought of it as a 'real' patrol car, just a smaller vehicle. As for the Friends poly, I tried to think if the pieces were good, or whatever, but could not really come up with a reason to buy any.

As for the #30279, I have been saying they should be put out on sale to make room for new polybags.

I saw some new U-Wing polys #30496 at a Fred Meyer store yesterday (new to me at least). Not a lot of them on Brickset yet. Maybe I should buy up a bunch and resell?

Only if you can dump them quickly.  I believe this is also at Meijer (Midwest) and you are about 43 days from a massive aftermarket flood bought at 50%off. 

Switchfoot55

Yeah, I know my opportunity to sell would be a very small window and the margins aren't enough to where I'd likely move forward with it. Seems like a fun little build though. 

gmonkey76

@Switchfoot55 depending on the price I might interested in one as I don't live near a store that has them. Is there any polybags you are looking for in trade?

prevere

Anyone seen the police officer with the tire puncture strips poly yet? I hope it's not a limited release.

jmeninno

^Ditto.

Here is the Easter polybag setup at the local Meijer:

I took a lousy picture, but the Turtle Creator is only 2.99.

77ncaachamps

Damn! Nice! Wish I had those options!!

Russell844

Nice. I need a couple of those.

Legogram

Yeah, I need a couple of them too.  I hope they are sold at a local store near me.

Nice! I've been hunting for the Sea Turtle.  My local Meijer only had the Police car out the last time I checked, but the Easter section wasn't fully done yet.

For anyone tracking these down at Meijer, make sure you check the end caps in the toy area as well. I've been seeing more polys pop up at my store than normal, namely: #30477 Chameleon and #30425 Cru Master's Training Grounds.

Where else can the Creator polys be found :-(

Thanks for the heads up on Freddie's, I stopped in and grabbed one for myself.

Typically, Meijer and Target. The problem is Target is apparently using Friends and City for its Easter section this year. My guess is the Turtle will pop up somewhere else this year (Walmart, Target, TRU, LEGOLAND Discovery Centers, etc)

Penkid11

So apparently Fred Meyer's stores (Kroger's Pacific NW branch) are starting to regularly stock polybags...

I found:
#30279 Kylo Ren's Command Shuttle
#30446 The Batmobile
and the ever illusive Ninjago #30425 CRU Master's Training Grounds

Buckets and buckets of all three.

Dang! Now I need to stop by Freddy's and I pick up 30425! I also live in the NW and found the first two you mentioned (in great quantity) a few weeks ago.

Thanks! I hope I can find a turtle or #30551 for my daughter!

Or you can ask someone in the forum who is near a Meijer if they can pick up one or two for you and sell them to you at retail or trade something for them.

Went to my local Fred Meyer today and found the U-wing and Juniors fire truck polybags, both in great quantity. Almost wish I had bought multiple U-wings!

KingAlanI

saw a few #30354 Hot Rod at Target on top of the racks of #30279, all still at $3.49 . have seen 30447 there before but that was months ago

pansyp

For anyone (like me) who didn't/couldn't get #30546 Krypto Saves the Day at TRU back in December, it's on TRU.com: 

http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=116559236

Also, if you're just kicking yourself over not picking up a #30474 Reindeer over the holidays, they've got that, too.

veign06

R3-M2 Poly #40268 is apparently at Legoland California with a $55 purchase.


(From BrickFan)

KingAlanI

@pansyp it seems rare to see polys on store websites, nice. However, 30546 was also a S@H promo in February (with any DC Girls set, stacked with #30607 on any order of at least $75)

Haven't seen any reference or mention of Five Below polybags lately. But they historically have stocked them.

VorpalRyu

Any word yet on the Milano?

I think I saw someone post they found one at a Discovery Center either here or on Reddit but I can't remember exactly. I am guessing it will be at TRU as a promo around the time the film comes out.*



*At the few TRU locations that can manage to run a promotion properly.

Fingers crossed then, I'm hoping I'll be able to pick up a dozen or so of these fairly cheaply, want a couple for me, one for each of my boys + I know a few nephews & nieces who would love one.

Found Ninjago #30425 at Gordmans today for $3.99.

KingAlanI

Empty Friends display labeled #30401 $3.99 at Target

SeijiAmasawa

#30521 and #30523 at bn.com
$3.99 each

malachirobertson

Got Ninjago #30425 at Meijer on Friday for $3.99.

Infinityman

Yeah, Meijer in Lansing had four or five different polybags - it's really becoming the place to look!

Mauricio

I found a bunch of #30277 First Order Star Destroyer at Best Buy, but labeled price was $9.99.  Is that price expected?

That's what they are at my local Best Buy.  I know some places had them clearanced for $1, but no luck here.

KingAlanI

the gymnastics poly would be useful on clearance for the minidoll, got a lot of #30399 Amusement Park Bowling Alley for that reason. likewise, the cop car and hot rod at least have a minifig.

sa1sachica

@KingAlanI What do you do with duplicate mini dolls/digs? Trade for different ones at the store maybe? 

pansyp

Rolled through my local Target today and *all* the checkout polys have been cleaned out. I can't imagine someone bought all the hot rods and the Kylo Ren Shuttles (though I guess it's possible). Anyone else seen a complete clean out recently? 

We can only hope they restock with something good...not more #30352 Police Cars.

Probably heading to Goodwills for $1.09 (or something like that).

solid_strider

Saw the #30253 Joker poly clearanced at one Walmart to $2.81.
