Dbroncoboy Posted December 10, 2015 Posted December 10, 2015 There are two normally dressed people with Lego branded bags and scanners loading up my TRU with inventory. I've never seen this before, but maybe I just have never been there when they are. There are millennium Falcons spilling out onto the floor. Ridiculously well stocked. Quote

I have seen stuff like that at TRU and a Target once before setting up display models. Quote

Last year at this time they were almost empty. Looks like lego way overproduced based on sales to the horde and not end users. And who says the horde doesn't affect anything. Either that or every consumer in america has lego fatigue at once. Let's see, Occam's razor, yadda yadda, I pick the first one. Quote
exciter1 Posted December 12, 2015 Posted December 12, 2015 Buy your Shopkins and leave the clearance LEGO for me. Quote
fossilrock Posted December 12, 2015 Posted December 12, 2015 I think walmart, target, etc are blowing through stock and restocking it just as fast. One snapshot doesn't paint a whole picture. Let's see a time-lapse from the walmart cameras that shows a typical lego isle from black friday to January 1st. Guarantee you will see a lot of stock being moved, added, etc. I know that the employees at my local walmart are stocking constantly. Quote
exciter1 Posted December 12, 2015 Posted December 12, 2015 I see this at Wal-Marts around here, but we are more rural. Quote
labfreak7 Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 24 hours later..... Target.... Long Island ny First two the same Walmart as yesterday- last two are target Quote
LegoAddict42 Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 Target near was wiped out except for lots of Chima, a few ninjago, and several of Kylo Ren's shuttle. Walmart down the road was pretty fully stocked still. Quote
Alpinemaps Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 That's what my local Wal-Mart Lego aisles look like year round. Quote
justapilgrim Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 My target Put stuffed animals on an entire row of Lego (left side animals, right Lego, because sold out of half) Quote
Crustybeaver Posted January 17, 2016 Posted January 17, 2016 Went into Toys R us Woking over the weekend and looks like they haven't had any stock since Christmas. Ninjago and City sets spread out to fill all the gaps. No Technic or Star Wars, looked pretty sparse. Quote

There's only so much space you can cover with the full left behind ranges of Chima and Ninjago. I would say i almost have more Lego than they do. Hopefully more value! Quote
Mrmic66 Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 That's because employees are buying them just to sell the minifigures Quote
