Looking for (UK): Hamley's Guard polybag

scottwb2010 · December 2017

^ cheers

Bricklover18 · December 2017

I will happily buy one of the lesters if @SumoLego only wants one.

COOLEGO · December 2017

Big thank @BooTheMightyHamster, very much appreciated.

I think you’ve got my name mixed up with @CoolLegoGuy though :-).

BooTheMightyHamster · December 2017

Aha! My mistake - thanks for pointing that out @COOLEGO

BooTheMightyHamster · December 2017

@Bricklover18 I'll see if I can pick up a few more.

MegtheCat · December 2017

@BooTheMightyHamster Can I get a 2nd Guard if there are still any available? No problem if not so long as I get the one I'm already down for.

rawbob · December 2017

@BooTheMightyHamster

thank you!

BooTheMightyHamster · December 2017

@MegtheCat Yep, you can have two.

M_Boss · December 2017

@BooTheMightyHamster

I’ll take a guard if there are still any extras. I’ll also take a Lester if there are any of those available.

Thanks

SeijiAmasawa · December 2017

@BooTheMightyHamster
@SumoLego
If there’s a spare Lester, I’d like one but not if it’s too much trouble. Thanks so much!

minicoop4 · December 2017

Two Lesters please if there's an opportunity on a future visit. Thank you so much for sharing with us!

alexwil · December 2017

@BooTheMightyHamster I’d take a lester too if there was 1 going!!

BooTheMightyHamster · December 2017

I'll see what I can do. :o)

BooTheMightyHamster · December 2017

The padded bags have been shipped and will be with me on Wednesday, so I'll start getting in touch with people re: payment / addresses etc then. I'll get a box off to SumoLego over the weekend.

blade_guy · December 2017

I have no idea if you do have any spares but went to Hamley‘s both yesterday and today whilst visiting from Manchester and none left at all! I would love a Royal Guard!

flord · December 2017

At some point we need to give @BooTheMightyHamster a break and have a cut off for new orders.

Also, thanks for doing this, man.

ravot · December 2017

awesome news @BooTheMightyHamster thanks for all the work on this!

A break? No. The man needs a knighthood!

Ok, if my maths is correct, then I have just sufficient to fulfil all the requests up to this point. Due to the Post Office closing early yesterday, the box won't be going off to the USA until Tuesday. It will contain:

30 Guards
13 Lesters

And are for the following:

I'll be in touch with people later in the week for payment / delivery details. Paypal is preferred, but I'm sure we can work something out if you don't have an account.

For any future requests...

Lester's are pretty easy to get hold of. I can only buy 6 per visit, but I'm hoping that the staff are correct and the arbitrary limit will be lifted soon. They certainly have hundreds every time I go in.

@blade_guy mentioned that Hamleys were out of stock of the Guards a couple of days ago. Given that they're probably buying them from Lego for about 40p and selling them at £6, I doubt whether it'll be long before they're back in stock.

Cheers!

Boo

ravot · December 2017

woo, this is great news. thanks for the help on this. Also, i totally missed the part on Lester, i don't suppose there is an extra one that can head to the states? otherwise, maybe in a future request. thank you though!

BooTheMightyHamster · December 2017

@ravot

Yep, should be able to get one more Lester in.

msanders · January 2018

Heya. Just to include my name for 2 guards from our PM communications. Thanks to your incredible efforts. Cheers

ravot · January 2018

thanks @BooTheMightyHamster i'm ready with paypal, just let us know.

BooTheMightyHamster · January 2018

Went in to Hamley's today. The chap I spoke to said they weren't due to get any Guards until January, but their MD pulled some strings and got a pallet delivered early, which have now all gone. They're stocktaking next week, and then the first 'expected' delivery hits their warehouse on Jan 10th - should be in store by the 14th. From that point on they're expecting regular deliveries every 8 weeks or so, so picking them up shouldn't be an issue.

colay · January 2018

Sorry to be a pain, but could I get 2 Lesters (on top of the Guards) too please? Many thanks

BooTheMightyHamster · January 2018

Hi @colay - yep, should be able to do that.

US contingent - the parcel is on it's way to @SumoLego as we speak!

SumoLego · January 2018

Okay - once the parcel comes in, I will PM everyone on the list. As noted above, we're doing this basically at cost. There will be a marginal charge for the padded envelopes, incoming shipping, outgoing shipping and any exchange fees.

Very eager to get the parcel!

gmonkey76 · January 2018

Thanks @BooTheMightyHamster for getting these, and @SumoLego for being the US point person.

davetheoxygenman · January 2018

Agree with the other folks on this side of the pond. Cannot say Thanks enough to @BooTheMightyHamster for the initial pickup and @SumoLego for handling distribution for the states!! Both top notch Bricksetters!!

DoktorL · January 2018

Should someone be able to get another bunch of Guards, I would love to buy two. I am in the UK but nowhere near a Hamley's. Thanks a lot in advance.

BooTheMightyHamster · January 2018

I've PM'd everybody for confirmation of numbers / delivery addresses and I'll aim to get figs in the post fairly soon.

@DoktorL

Hamley's say they'll have them back in stock on or around Jan 14th. I'll see who wants any at that point and do another run.

OrmskirkBricks · January 2018

Just for info; Hamleys had loads back on the shelf today (5 January). 3rd Floor, turn left once you step of the escalator.

RedMark · January 2018

It's now showing up Hamley's online for £6.00 but delivery is £4.95.

mklego · January 2018

Can't believe I'm so late to the party, but @BooTheMightyHamster if you do another run then I would also love 3 Hamleys guards and 1 Lester please!

BooTheMightyHamster · January 2018

@mklego

I need to pick a few more up - slight miscalculation on my part, so I'm a Guard short at present, so I'll try and get some more on Wednesday.

Everyone who has sent me their address has their figs in the post now, so should be with you in the next few days.

snowhitie · January 2018

@BooTheMightyHamster if you are going back on Wednesday, could you put one Hamley's guard down for me too please? Very lovely you are sorting this for so many people.

sid3windr · January 2018

^ And one for me as well, can be posted with @snowhitie 's and it'll end up at my place eventually :)

BooTheMightyHamster · January 2018

Sure - no problem!

Raven13 · January 2018

Hi, would love to get a Lester and Hamleys anytime in the future. Cheers

BooTheMightyHamster · January 2018

I shall start a new list!
:o)

colay · January 2018

Thank you so much to Boo for doing this :)

If you’re starting a new list, please can I jump on? It was amazing that you already hauled a ‘barrow full’ the first time around but if you’re going again...

Kerre · January 2018

I'm going to London tomorrow on very short notice. Planning to check Hamleys and if possible bring some at cost for the Benelux Brickset crowd.

Might ease the burden on @BooTheMightyHamster a bit.

DarthMorl · January 2018

@BooTheMightyHamster if you do start a new list could you please put me down for a couple?

RidzDesign · January 2018

I would love both a Lester and a Hamleys guard.

How does this work? I am located in Virginia, USA

DarthMorl · January 2018

@kerre I was there last week and they are completely sold out. Expecting more in next week but not sure what day! If you do go and they have any I would be very grateful if you could pick me 2 up

Humdrum · January 2018

The Hamley's minifig is now available on their website: http://www.hamleys.com/lego-hamleys-exclusive-royal-guard-5005233.ir

Kerre · January 2018

^^I'm relying on what @OrmskirkBricksreported - loads in stock on Friday the 5th.

OrmskirkBricks · January 2018

@Kerre hope you grabbed some!

My order got cancelled due to unforseen stock issues.
