Will the employees let you walk in and buy 20+ of a hard to find set? For some stores, it could be 4 trips of 5 & with others 10 trips of 2...

kenaijoe Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 Yeah, that's what I have been doing. The closest Lego store is about 15 miles away from me though so I can only really make 1 trip a day. It gets awkward when I just go out to my car and then back in for more and the employees recognize me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should've bought them all and quick flip them. Right... Like hot cakes in the parking lot I suppose. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meganr Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 I went to the Southcenter (WA) Lego store the other day and they would only let me buy one RE and had to ask if I was allowed to but two IR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenaijoe Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 I went to 3 lego stores today. 1 of them had no JW sets at all. One had 1 RE left and a few DAs and PCs. The last one had 3 REs left and I think some RRs too. Still pretty scarce around here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skanks Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Will be interesting to see if the other sets go retired once the current stock levels go at LEGO Shop at Home I'm really hoping they do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregpj Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 In the last 3 days we've built all the JW sets.... They are very cool and use some nice build techniques. The kids love the Dinos and Gyrospheres the most... but everything is getting play time including the Pteranodon Capture helipcopter (the net shooter). In fact, I was just looking at it and aside from the "additions" of the stud shooter and net shooter, it's one of the best looking lego helicopters I've seen. It really looks like a helicopter! I don't know how in-demand they'll be at Xmas with Star Wars taking so much air time, but they should be. I think they'll be highly prized and sought after in years to come.

Sometimes I wanted to buy a dozen of these and turn it more into a military helicopter =P 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigreen Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Want to share a piece of my experience. I'm in Montreal Quebec. Last Sunday (Nov. 8 ) I visited TRU in Angrignon to return 1 75918 and 2 75917, and amazingly found they only have 3~4 75918 left: just 3 weeks ago they have all the JW sets except for RE on shelf, including at least 4 75919 -- but it might because of resellers like me: seems these days they got quite some returns of Lego JW sets This Tuesday in the afternoon a guy suddenly contact me for 75919. For this set I have 2 in total and just want to get rid of at the time, so I listed it as $170 on Kijiji. He want 75919 in such a hurry so we arrange the pick up in the very evening, he also shows interest to my other JW sets. At the pick up he told me that day he called TRU for the availability of 75919 and was told it will be available in coming February. Struck by fear this father rushed to a Walmart and grabbed all JW sets he can saw: 75917, 75918 and 75916. Although he showed interest to 75920 but still refused to pay a premium for it. Maybe the happy hour is just around the corner? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Checked 2 more walmarts in my area today. Still zero JW sets of any kind. The restock must have been to only certain markets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
