[US] 2015 Creator sets available at TRU
Posted by Huw,
Six 2015 Creator sets have been listed at Toys R Us, which claims they are shipping now. They don't seem to be included in any lists there yet so you'll need to search for them. Here's a link to one of them.
Thanks Nathan for the news.

There are also 3 other available
Rainforest Animals (31031)
Red Creatures (31032)
Vehicle Transporter (31033)
Ah yes, so there is. I tried searching for 31030, saw it wasn't there so didn't try others. Doh!
I'll get then added and the article updated
I was wondering when Just2Good would get to Creator. Turns out, we beat him to the punch! Yay!
What about the Toy and Grocery Shop that's supposed to be part of this wave? These seem pretty tiny. Still expecting excellent PPP ratios.
The helicopter is the only one I don't like that much. It's too blocky. That scarlet macaw, though, is excellent...
Wowza, Toys"R"Us really beat me there! Thanks for the heads up on the products!
There is one city set up too, the snow plow.
I am seeing 3 Technic sets as well. 42032 - 42034.
^ With nice big images, too. Thanks.
How come the sets that are released in the US first are always one I don't want?
looks like they wised up and it's just placeholders. all say "email me when available" now
I ordered the three smaller creator sets and I just got shipment confirmation
The Heli (31029 ) $10 - 7.58 cents a piece.
I'd guess 31027/31028 is $5 like those last year.
31032 could be $18 or $20
31031 could be $15, but possibly $18
31033 is $18 for sure IMO.
@Isabella and Lego Liker - the prices are listed:
30131 Rainforest Animals 14.99
31032 Red Creatures 14.99
31033 Vehicle Transporter 24.99
The prices for these Creator sets are generally comparable to previous years; the pricing for the Helicopter, Rainforest Animals, and Red Creatures is extremely good.
The sea plane's catamaran build is certainly something different, especially for the sub-$10 sets.
City snow plow truck is on there too.

^^Yes, it's rather clever, but the third model feels so lazy-- it looks like two bare angle plates with a few bricks on top. Rather awful, IMHO.
Holy cow, for those prices I can't complain about the semi-larger ones at all... although, what's the price on the heli? I bet $13, that's what the little orange car was this year with the same part count.
I work at a TRU, we didn't get any new sets in yet, but should in the upcoming weeks because that's normal.
@PicnicBasketSam The Heli is $10 (good PPP here, 7.58 the racecar is a tad less at 7.44 CPP), though $25 for the transporter set seems too high, since the last tiny truck came with 256 pieces and sold for $7 less.
