I heard that most are 3 each. The extra 6 packs are one additional Mickey, Stitch, Alien, Genie, Syndrome and Mr. Incredible 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poly 30286 Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 I went out smooshing yesterday, but TRU had a limit of 5. I thought I had picked up an Alien at TRU during a quick grab. So when I spent the next hour? smooshing at WM I did NOT buy an Alien. Got home and verified... I need to find an Alien today. Also, I kept thinking that Donald's tail was the lamp, so no Aladdin either. I find it very stressful to smoosh with the security screen flashing "recording in progress" and an associate walking through once a minute.

Robertx Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 I've bought 12 bags. 6 at 2 different locations. No smoothing. Just for my son and I to open and see a few. Ended up with 3 Peter Pan. Lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people may find it inconvenient, but that exactly why I just buy what I can, and take them all home to smoosh. After I get what I want, I just return the rest for my refund. It feels pretty awkward sometimes with a cart full of these things just feeling them up in the middle of the toy section. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should go north to Canada and find the person with 1 second smoosh technique. The person goes to store with custom made basket with 16 pockets, so he/she has got to be used to people giving him/her weird looks. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If buying to sell, the time needed to go back and wait in line to return stuffs eats the small profit fast If collecting, this basically prevents other fans from buying until those packs are returned. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is my second set for personal use. (One for the kids to play with. One for me to keep safe from grubby little hands.) I don't like the idea of cleaning out the store just to bring them back. Poor little Timmy just wants a little something... But some greedy Gus took all the Disney CMF for profits. Waah! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both very valid points. However, if buying to sell, I wouldn't see much point in returning them at all. I'd keep the singles and just sell those. In terms of collecting, as is generally my case, your point does make sense. When I do buy to take home though, they are usually returned within a day or two. And I definitely don't clear house. Chances are, I don't need to buy 80 of these just to complete my one set. Just a handful or two at a time works just fine, then rinse and repeat if need be. Regardless, thank you for pointing that out. Maybe I'll consider practicing with the Smoosh Master to achieve the 1 second technique Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should definitely go north and find "the one with custom 16 pockets basket", or maybe it is 18 pockets basket now? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MinifiguresPlus Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 UPDATE: 1. The original shipment of Disney minifigures is on schedule. 2. New supply for the Disney Series is delayed. We now expect to be listing the series again around the 14th or so. This, however, will be a preorder to see what demand is still out there. The new supply would ship around the 1st of June or so. 3. I apologize for those who have emailed and have not received responses yet. We have had an overload of questions from various sites. I will be responding within the next 48 hours. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the community in this community! Thank you so much for the offer. I actually found the last two I needed within 10 minutes back at WM this am. Smooshing goes much faster after you get a feel for the feel. My girls are already playing, mixing and free building with their complete set. 3 hours ago, exciter1 said: I ain't got the time. I'm available if you need to outsource your smooshing 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
