Thank you for the heads up. I wish Tucson would restock or at least I wish Dublin was a few miles from me. This gives me some hope that the Flags will reappear soon.

Tomorrow is a holiday & if anyone is seriously interested you can PM me & I could always go back tomorrow & pick up some of them. I'd have to make it worth the trip & shipping but nothing like say ebay or amazon. It looked like there were 10 or so flagbearer boxes & I'm not sure how many of each... :roll:

It seems like chief posted a thread a long time ago about finding Laglor at Walmart. One of those, "Walmart took it back without thinking after Christmas" things.

Funny how walmart will accept almost anything as a return. You don't even need a recipt at the walmart near me to return stuff.

Hahah I read this after I buy the Utgar and Jandar's flag bearer off ebay for 40 bucks. Why am I not surprised.

This is good news. I hope my local TRU restocks the other two flag bearers soon.

Does anyone know the Toys R Us SKN number for the Flag Bearer sets?

I've tried calling a few stores asking about HeroScape Flag Bearers and "No, we don't carry Zero Grape" is as far as I've gotten.

Any Toys R Us employees out there who can confirm that the Flag Bearers are once again available?

Being a former BRU/TRU employee here's the fastest procedure to find them:

Call your local TRU, ask them to check stock level on SKN (Say SKIN, thats how they say it) 554070. Have them check floor stock and BACKSTOCK (Backroom unopened boxes which are 3 gilbert/ornak, 2 of each of the other 3 FB's, 12/case). If they have them, good for you.

If not, have then check local inventory in nearby stores, they can check query other stores in their region.

NO FBs Here in Dallas (Walnut Hill & 75)

I did, however, find three sets of first edition sparkly, reds and blues; box was in excellent condition. These must have been sitting in back stock or warehouse for quite some time. You can tell they haven't ever been on the shelf. I picked one up and shuffled the other two to the back. Run number is 43221 and I confirmed the contents.
lots of Tundra at that TRU as well.

That must be the most mis-managed TRU ever! I found one of those there last October when the FBs came out. That's the one I sold to wisinger.

I have contacted Sandra! My wife is going to kill me as I just received my last order from Sandra two weeks ago (the creditcard bill has not even arrived yet!).

I know House Mouse gets a lot of plugs here but here's another for my fellow Canadians:

Sandra's prices are very, very reasonable even with shipping for Canadians with the current exchange rate. My last package was not assessed duties crossing the border and the result was that things cost almost exactly the same - ijcluding the shipping charge - as they would have if I had bought them in Ontario with our 14% sales tax! And they were delivered right to my door so I did not have to drive all over looking for things that are very poorly stocked in Canada to begin with (we cant get the older waves at all)!

We needed 4 of the 5 FBs, so it will hold us over... :lol:

Now if only they would come to Canada!
Road trip to the US. There are two TRUs within 25 miles of Niagara. Search with zip code: 14301. Considering the Loony is almost on par with the Greenback and will probably surpass its value this summer- happy shopping! Unfortunately, you now need a passport to get into the US.

I went to TRU in Orem Utah on my lunch hour and they had at least 2 full sets. The first 3 boxes I saw were all Ornaks. I happily picked up all three I was missing. The classic part was when the cashier was ringing it up she was commenting on the weather (it's been raining all day) and then says something to the effect of it would be a great day to go home and play Heroscape all night. If I wasn't already married I think I would have dropped on one knee right there.

Flag bearers at Burnsville, MN TRU.

Checked Tuesday and nothing. Checked yesturday and there they were, along with a set of Wave 4. I picked up a Laglor, but the others are still there. Looks like they are back for a while all over the place. Get them while you can. And if you paid rediculous ebay prices over the last 5 months, guess you should have waited.

So, anyone interested in finding an Acolarh :ullar: or Hamato :einar: for me and sending it over, let me know. :mrgreen:

Yesterday after work I stopped by the Times Square Toys'r'us. They had multiples of each flagbearer (I counted five Jander before I gave up because I had to catch a train). They also had at least one master set and castle set, plus at least two Lava sets. Of course, I had ordered Jandar and Utgar flagbearers on Toys'r'us online... I could have saved myself shipping! Oh well, live and learn.
