The droid on STAP & the clone walker...still a lot of star wars missing, but the 30005 and the 30006 are my faves.

@ Orthobotrex - these are the polybags currently available in the United States. There are a ton of polybag sets listed for the last couple of years that have just not made any appearances here but you never know. The Fire Helicopter is from 2008 and we're only now seeing it for the first time.

have most of these already, but need to get 7802, 30008, 30009, 30040. i agree about the 30004 and 30006. had bought them awile ago online but would be nice to have more. this is becoming polybag heaven or nightmare. remember the days of little boxes. traget did not have the octopus yet, but toys r us had this a little while ago. missed it then also. i Like the fire helecopter

@yellowcastle - Where did you find 30031, 30051, and 300005; and at what price?

Posted by cjg in United States, 18 Nov 2010 19:44

I saw http://brickset.com/detail/?Set=7802-1 http://brickset.com/detail/?Set=30002-1 http://brickset.com/detail/?Set=30031-1 http://brickset.com/detail/?Set=30040-1 http://brickset.com/detail/?Set=30051-1 http://brickset.com/detail/?Set=30071-1 http://brickset.com/detail/?Set=4900-1 at Target. I only got the army jeep though.

Posted by yellowcastle in United States, 18 Nov 2010 19:50

@ Jarod - The Storm Trooper Speederbike is at Toys R Us at $3.99. The other 2 are at Target and believe they might have been $3.99 as well. I know that's what they charged me for the Army Jeep...

Posted by mikechiu12345 in Singapore, 18 Nov 2010 19:56

Can anyone tell me which Target they found the following polybags:

•7802 Le Mans Racer (Target)
•30002 Police Boat (Target)
•30031 World Racer Powerboat (Target)
•30040 Octopus w/ treasure ring (Target)
•30051 X-Wing Fighter (Target)
•30071 Army Jeep (Target)
30032 World Race Buggy

I have been hunting for polybags at targets and toysrus for the past 2 days and so far I only got the 4900 Fire Helicopter @ target, and the imperial bike and the alien spaceships at toys r us.

I feel very lucky today as i was able to bought 15 of the imperial bikes at toysrus!

30051 is $2.99 in target. Below Five also has 30040 and one other polybag set(I forgot).

•7802 Le Mans Racer (Target)
•30002 Police Boat (Target)
•30031 World Racer Powerboat (Target)
•30040 Octopus w/ treasure ring (Target)
•30051 X-Wing Fighter (Target)
•30071 Army Jeep (Target)

the le mans Racer, octopus and world racer power boats have been around in targets near me (northern california) for a while now. At the cash registers. Although I have seen them at one target moved to the christmas stocking stuffers sections in the same bin as the x-wings. The jeeps I've seen at that same place too this last week. The x-wing was 2.99/3.50/3.99 depending on the target visited :P While the two racers and the octopus used to be 2.99 they are now ringing up at 3.99. The jeep is also 3.99 so instead of buying three of them I came away with the standard boxed 4 army guys, jeep and stretcher instead.

What I have not seen around here is the speeder in TRU.

The gift card is 95% or more of the time sold out or not being put out. I lucked upon two by asking for it and having them pull it from their gift card room.

The Five Below I went to yesterday had 30040 and 30031. They also had a SW polybag (I think it was 30050) and 2 Space Police impulse sets (8399 and 8400).

Posted by voypro in United States, 18 Nov 2010 21:18

My local TRU are guarding their polybag Stormtroopers imperial bikes, like Victorian maiden was expected to protect her virtue. Initially I asked for 5 of them, the manager said they they we limited to one per person per day, then told me my two sons (ironically both sporting Lego Batman shirts) did not count; apparently they are not people. At least according to the TRU law and the store manager warped interpretation thereof, based on the fact that "if" she were handing out vouchers, for some wii or whatever, she would not give a voucher to someone under 18.

That was about a week ago, I have since then gone back and will fellow adult in tow, got two stormies per day. Tonight the assistant manager told me she could not "give" me anymore, "cause they were for the get-one free promotion." What promotion, i asked? There was of course NO promotion, which she admitted, then hostilely rang me up.

Does anyone else have as much problem with their Toy R Us, with rudeness and arbitrary set limits on not really limited items. I mean my kids aren't people? What is that? I am being to think mine was built on some ancient Indian burial ground or something.

Posted by Jarod98 in United Kingdom, 18 Nov 2010 21:25

@yellowcastle - Thanks, were they near the counters, or somewhere else?
@voypro - Sounds like something a TRU manager would do.

Posted by blazetrooper501 in United States, 18 Nov 2010 21:28

I was able to get 4 of the target Bullseye the target dog I found out a couple weeks ago the second I found out I went to toysrus and bought them pretty cool little set.

Posted by mikechiu12345 in Singapore, 18 Nov 2010 21:33

@cara - i am in the Los Angeles area and the targets I have been they only got the city firefighter polybag. So you are saying they might be putting the other ones at the christmas section?

Posted by c.lee.r in United States, 18 Nov 2010 21:53

almost all the poly bags at target are in the christmas are with the stocking stuffer stuff. it is called mini seasonal. used to work for a target. most targets it is in the back and some are in the front but not at the registers or at the dollar area. hope this clears up some confusion. ask for mini seasonal.

Posted by hleonffu in United States, 18 Nov 2010 21:57

30008 ($3.99) and 30009 ($3.99) at the seasonal section at TRU in CT.
30005 ($3.99) near the counter at TRU in CT.
30002 ($3.99), 30031 ($3.99), 30040 ($3.99) and 30051 ($2.99) at the seasonal section at Target in CT.
30071 ($2.99) at the seasonal section at Target in NJ.

So far, Target is releasing different sets. 30071 is the latest. 30031 and 30051 was released earlier in the month (Nov).

Anybody seen the Army Jeep in a Target in AZ?

Posted by yellowcastle in United States, 18 Nov 2010 22:07

Red alert is downgraded to mauve.

Posted by cjg in United States, 18 Nov 2010 23:01

@blazetrooper501: You got 4 of the Bullseye dogs at TRU? I think you meant Target. lol

Posted by starfire2 in United States, 18 Nov 2010 23:02

@wildcherryp3psi: I saw 4 of them at the Target on 43rd ave & W Peoria. I didn't buy any.

Posted by cara in United States, 18 Nov 2010 23:45

@ mikechiu12345 I have seen all of them in the christmas section. But only one of the targets here has the octopus, world racer and le mans. the le mans is gone now and they moved theirs from the hanging impulse area by the cash register to the christmas section to be in the same sections of shelf as the x-wings.

Posted by mikechiu12345 in Singapore, 19 Nov 2010 01:19

@cara: thanks! i just went to the christmas section @ target and i bought the toys storys 3 jeep, the world racer and the x-wings

Posted by yakop in United States, 20 Nov 2010 12:22

In Columbus OH I found the Lego Minifigue Light Keychaine that you can see here: http://www.vat19.com/dvds/lego-keylight-keychain.cfm
And don't forget about the limited edition Lego Target Gift Card with the Target Lego Dog. They are all gone in store but you can buy it on their website for $1.95 shipping and a minimum of $25.00 gift card. Not to bad if you are going to use that money at target anyway :)

Posted by crazyawesomeyeah in United States, 20 Nov 2010 12:40

@pandax---no problem! =D

Posted by wildcherryp3psi in United States, 21 Nov 2010 02:28

Posted by spency13 in United States, 21 Nov 2010 15:10

Don't forget the Power Miners Rock Hacker (8907) and the Power Miners Monster Launcher (8908)!

Posted by BooMakuta! in United States, 22 Nov 2010 20:22

Hmmm...polybags are good sets, but sometimes, there's an obvious drop in quality.For example, the speeder bike: really? 1. Stormtroopers didn't ride speeder bikes, 2. The axe "feature" is so lame it's scary, and 3. It soesn't even look like a speeder bike. Some polybags are OK, but...well, polybags just don't really appeal to me.

Posted by Unknown User2596 in United States, 22 Nov 2010 23:26

Add the WR buggy to the list; one of the Targets near me still has it.

Posted by crazyawesomeyeah in United States, 23 Nov 2010 18:10

*spency13...where can you find those besides eBay and amazon?

Posted by spency13 in United States, 24 Nov 2010 11:22

@crazyawesomeyeah, i don't think you can find them any more. They came out about a year or so ago...
