Toy Story 3 exclusive at Toys R Us
Posted by Huw,
This rather excellent looking garbage truck will be a TRU exclusive in the USA, and will cost a very reasonable $45. You can't yet order it from the Toys R Us website, but presumably it'll be available when the other TS3 sets are released in June.
Update: This has now been removed from the TRU site: expect me to me asked to remove it from here soon (thanks Sterling for spotting this!)
They are also listing three Prince Of Persia sets which are now showing as in stock. Ridiculously, I'm told LEGO/Disney have still not yet agreed to the images being released so I'm still being asked not to use them.

I just found out about the garbage truck set earlier today. Looks great to me! :-)
looks like a great set :)
That is an great looking garbage truck. Want it!
I wonder if it's CITY sized. If it is, I want it, if not... well, let's not go there. Thanks for the info though, Huw!
Are the Prince Of Persia set out yet on TRU?
It looks to be 10-wide, so larger than normal City trucks
Looks like 10 wide so a bit much for city. Don't see too many interesting parts but let's wait for a proper inventory.
You just beat me to it. Great minds and all that... ;-)
can anyone verify if the msrp is $40 since i remember reading that its msrp is $40 but TRU is just adding another $5. The scratched/beat up Lotso and Twitch seem to be exclusive to this set.
I didn't see any of the Prince of Persia at my local TRU today. But I was able to pick up a chrome storm trooper instead.
I will probably cry during the movie this looks so sad!! :(
Interesting set.. what are the parts on the bottom of the dumpster? nice dark green part assortment. The bear fig seems a bit of an insult to lego figs though.
Wow, looks cool. That odd orange and green guy would make a SWEET alien!
Hmm. it looks good. . .
wow looks cool, but why is there a pink teddy bear with a feindish smile? and why is there a guy with a grasshopper head?
@itsaturkey: Cause they're characters in Toy Story 3. ;-)
@Denver Hey, looks like the part they used on the front of old school motorcycles!

Also, since they put the 3x10x3 Windscreen back into production for Grand Emporium, they need to find more uses for the part. Look a 10 stud truck!
Hm.....They could be revealing more than the trailers..... :)
I don't think this is to scale... It's suposed to be a dump truck for HUMANS to drive, not toys.
The "Grasshopper guy" is named Twitch.
