Hero,

Have you heard anything about you order from TRU USA?

I have had notification from the shipping company of pre advise from TRU but they are still yet to receive the parcel?!?!

Getting bit impatient now

Dimension X Turtles spotted in the Entertainer over the weekend.

Been tipped off on another place I go that the blindbags have also been spotted in Tescos! Perhaps they are slowly starting to spread out more.

Bagged the buggy set from Argos. Thanks for the heads up hero

Not yet. I am keeping a look out. Also ordered Don and Mike sets as well.

Happy to help. This thread has been very useful from the get go. Long may it continue.

Still no blindbag sightings. Almost made a pun there. Still on the hunt.

Has anyone seen the Megabloks Blindbags in anywhere other than Smyths?

Party Wagon reduced to £15 on Amazon UK.

Hi thanks for the heads up, I watched it for a few days and got it for £8.50 in the end

Also for anyone looking for Megabloks blind bags in the Midlands ASDA Minworth had them in stock.

The Turtle Terminator · 02-04-2016, 03:00 PM

The Dimension X figures are on Smyths to be released sometime this month

Roitorb · 02-05-2016, 02:11 AM

Are we not getting Mondo Geko in the UK or have I missed him?

oh and Napoleon.

Roitorb · 02-05-2016, 02:51 PM

Asda's George website has the megablocks listed for anyone looking for them.

*Hero* · 02-05-2016, 04:05 PM

Launch a figure into space promotion to coincide with this weekends UK Season 4 premiere.

Hero,

You heard anything from TRU yet?

I have emailed them as haven't had a tracking number yet or update.

I have only had initial confirmation of the order

*Hero* · 02-08-2016, 12:35 PM

I haven't sorry. I know the payment has gone through for sure. I might have to chase this up.

jimbob_2003 · 02-09-2016, 12:45 AM

Yea,

I'm chasing up myself if i hear anything i will let you know

*Hero* · 02-09-2016, 01:48 PM

Thanks mate.

Mega Bloks Blind Bags still nowhere to be found. I wonder if they had a limited release or just awaiting stock.

Managed to get Dregg the other day. Not bad.

Tescos currrently have Monkey Brains reduced to £4, and Classics Bebop down to £6.75. Some of the other figures are still under the 2 for £15 deal.

*Discogod* · 02-09-2016, 03:45 PM

Found the Mega Bloks blind bags today in Smyths. My GF bought be one to cheer me up after my hip surgery and I ended up with the ultra-rare clear red Shredder! Cracking little figure, lots of fun. Going to have to track down the rest now...

*Hero* · 02-10-2016, 06:16 AM

Nice one. My nearest Smyths is always sold out according to the website, so I can't even order a collection.

Hope your road to recovery is going well, Discogod.

UPDATE:
Are MegaBloks UK on Twitter trying to say that the Classic sets are out over here?

jimbob_2003 · 02-12-2016, 12:04 AM

My Megabloks finally turned up yesterday!

So far built Leo, Mikey and Rocksteady on their respective stands and really impressed with quality and detail.

Got Rocksteady and Krang to build later but major annoyance is that there is no sign of Donnie or Raph on the invoice which i have paid for as I have checked my receipt online.

Hopefully it is just a stock issue and they will follow soon.

I will try get some pictures up later.

*Hero* · 02-12-2016, 04:02 AM

Fair play. Mine should be turning up soon as well

SS Kakarot · 02-14-2016, 09:37 AM

A.B. Gee have updated the Mega Bloks Classics listings with pictures.
This probably doesn't mean anything though.

Really hope these will come out in the UK/Europe.

DevilSpooky · 02-14-2016, 06:19 PM

Today saw some of the blind bags and a couple of the smaller Nick sets here in Portugal, hope the classics come soon, those are the ones I really wanted.

*Hero* · 02-17-2016, 08:36 AM

Doorbell rings this morning and I have to get my son settled before answering. Just as I am getting down the stairs, a jiffy bag is being squeezed through the letterbox onto the floor. The delivery person drives off quickly.

Turns out to be one part of the Classics set I ordered from TRU 2-3 weeks ago. Fortunately not damaged. Left wondering if TRU US will be delivering in stages O_o.

On a side note. Entertainer are now stocking the large dino HSH figures. Picked up Mikey and Stegosaurus today.

*Hero* · 02-18-2016, 02:53 AM

I find a large box left in my porch this morning. Inside is the Classic Leonardo set on its own. A step up from having a jiffy bag shoved through the front door.

TRU USA must be losing money on shipping stuff in stages. Still, glad to be receiving the goods.
