nope. i bought from BL. it was cheaper than TRU's $2.49 ea.

the cheapest BL was at $1.92 (not sure shipping cost) but that ship has sailed...i didn't catch that either.

So it does look like some are more rarer than the others. They should at least make only 3 or 4 each. No need of 5 when there are minifigures that only has 3.

Still nothing in the Charlotte area. Target had none, & TRU employees insisted I was talking about the chrome Trooper (which are all gone). My iPhone 4 comes in tomorrow at the AT&T store, which is conveniently located across the street from TRU. So I'll be checking once again.

Funny thing was, looking around for series two, and not finding them, ran into a Toy-R-us with series one that had not been picked over! Girlfriend got two zombies, I got one. We both scored a robot. One Cheerleader for her, and five for me.Yea!

the Walamrt at the south end of Barrie, Ontario had about 5 boxes of them today. I was in a hurry and didn't have the bar codes with me, but I grabbed one at random and got the Spartan. Going back tomorrow armed with bar codes to get me a complete set!

As of today, both BC locations in Burnaby and Vancouver did not have the collectable minifigures.

I called S@H again.
Still none there.
Said there wasn't a release date yet.
However i gingerly pressed her, and she said check in a couple of weeks, so sounds like sept 1 will be earliest to get from S@H.
Hope they put limit on first, so they don't sell out before i can order some.

my local walmart in calgary had about two boxes, now they have about 1 1/2 boxes worth.

Lego minifigures series 2 is available right now for $1.99

http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.js ... =585620589

It seems that if your order is over $100 it qualify for free shipping. I ordered 60 minifigures and I got free shipping.

Don't wait too long because it wont last long and I hope that toysrus really ship them to me.

wow,.. thanks for the link. oddly enough, couldn't find it using TRU's frontpage and searching for lego. bought another 5 boxes. i already have 6 boxes from germany. too many might cause indigestion.

btw, this should be in the lego availability forum, not in the sales forum.

Opps...well I was actually trying to make a new topic...but well, it works too!! lol

A friend of mine was just at Lougheed today and found half a box. I'm planning on going to a few first thing in the morning, so I hope they restock them overnight (for the first series Lougheed put out almost a dozen boxes)

[gabriellee11]

It seems that it is only available through the link that I posted because I tried searching it through item number or name and nothing comes up.

[sweener]

Sold Out.

Wow!! I was told about it and I couldn't find it at their site and I was at TRU. Instead I was able to pick them up at the Lego store. Limit was 16 which meant that Lego is listening. Their was 21 left. I wasn't able to get a full set. I did get the box. Oh yeah, while I was at TRU I picked up some chrome trooper. It was buy one get one free!! Not bad 1 1/2 hour of work. Finally a decent score

[gbleeker]

There should be a limit online for TRU if they don't have enough stock that someone who sees this post hours later can't evey buy one minifigure. What a joke. I'd love to buy a full set, and I'd pay a small premium to someone to do so, but I'm not going to pay more than $3 figure to do so.

Lego in west nyack has 5 packs left. They don't know when the next shipment is coming. TRU didn't have any but were in the system for $3!!!!

You best bet is the s@h store. Since the store was willing to sell me 16, you might be able to get a set.
