In North Korea we have only TRU Smyth's JL and Brand Lego Stores.
Hoth Bricks is saying something about availability in Brand Stores but I can't into French.

@Val-E halp?

It was the final "mystery" gift no.12 on the wall calendar.

Has anyone seen the Ninjago Ice Tank polybag (30427) anywhere in the wild? They are no where to be found in my state.

I found about 15 on the top shelf almost behind a Lego friends set. Target. Took them all and about 10 turtles. I thought they would be fun to give to the neighborhood kids closer the Christmas. I haven’t seen any since, but Target has been putting polys all over place. Every register and at least 3 isle caps.

I saw just a few ninjago polys at the registers, but I don’t remember if it’s the one someone just asked about on here. I’ll check tomorrow. 99% were Star Wars, and 85% were walker and the rest were some other one I cannot find online. Maybe 5 each of City, Batman and turtles.

Ubiquitous at Target registers near me and also occasionally on end caps.

Washington. I've been seeing 30497 First Order Heavy Assault Walker as well. And still Kylo Ren Shuttle, lol. I thought mine were usually slow to put out polys, but I guess not THAT slow. Still haven't seen the Santa poly or the Kiss Kiss Batman keychain in store yet.

They had to pull the Kiss Kiss Batman from the back for me, after I ordered it online for in store pickup. Finally saw the heavy walker this week when I picked up the keychain. Still waiting on other polys to finally show. Debating ordering from BL or ebay as these may never show here at this rate.....

The kiss Tuxedo Batman keychain is showing online as available for pick up and can order by itself circumventing the $30 min.

Wandered into a local Target this week, it the toy aisle was a stocker's shopping cart with 3 of the 4 promos (Santa, Xmas Tree, Kiss Batman) so grabbed a few of each.  There was none of the Millennium Falcon and when I use the online checker for its DPCI 204-00-0266 it shows no stock anywhere near me, while the other 3 are in stock everywhere.  Wonder what's up with the Falcon?

Kiss kiss batman Keychain was also on this endcap

[ravenb99]

they made 214k of the kiss kiss keychain...

guess just decided to give a small amount to carmike way back when and make it look rare.  

[donbee]

Glad I passed up on them. $6 too much.

Our local Carmine’s got bought by AMC recently. So I’m wondering if Carmike just didn’t buy many.

Idk was a random theater to give it to compared to AMC and Regal.  Then Legoland got a decent amount but never really dispersed.  Target had 75k so roughly a third and probably the biggest chunk due to being so old now.   It's the highest run of the ones that are able to be figured out but far.  Wu keychain is 185k to compare.  

Pods so far are Batman 70k. Friends and Ninjago range from 125-132k.   Haven't seen the nexo yet.  Be interesting to see what Vader is when it comes out

Link above will allow you to order the mini Falcon from Target online.  DPCI checker still show none in stock within 100 miles of me.  Weird for a promo that starts in 2 days.  Oh well, got mine online.

Is 30354 Hot Rod retiring? A local Walmart had some on clearance for $0.50.

I think There is no retirement in the poly world.
They just run out.
But at $0.50, I’d arm sweep them.

It was available at my local Target today. The packaging is certainly unusual. It is a cross between the build and take models at TRU and an actual polybag. It has a sealed unmarked poly with the pieces inside an adhesive sealed bag that also had the instructions.
