3222 Helicopter and Limousine North American Availability

Post by timtosino »

Can anyone confirm if this set was ever relased in stores in North America? Brickpedia http://lego.wikia.co...r_and_Limousine says it came out in Feb 2010 with the new airport and planes. However I have never seen this in Canadian or American TRU, Walmart, or even the Bellevue Lego Store. I can't even seen to find it on the Toys R Us site.

Anyone seen it in Vancouver, along with the TRU truck?

Wal-Mart Lougheed Burnaby has them along with the new midi-scale star destroyer. Its not placed in the lego aisle yet but placed in the aisle next to it with some other toys. Weird.

They got them a few weeks ago. But since you are from richmond, I would recommend calling them first to see if they have it. If you don't mind paying shipping, LEGOShop has them along with Public transport, ToysRUs delivery truck and city house.

I picked up Transportation Center yesterday in Everett, US MSRP is $99 while Canadian is $139.99, 40% has got be the worst exchange rate ever. Is there a $75 free shipping code still valid, I can't seem to find the TRU Delivery Truck on S@H as well.

Shop at home will have the TRU truck? I thought that would be an exclusive?

Yeah that's what I was trying to figure out. I don't see the TRU truck on the Canadian or US S@H. I might drop by Langley Walmart on the way from the museum.

Sorry, it was a typo. ToysRUs.com has it instock. May be worthwhile to check them out at a toysrus store in the states.

TRU Everett was out of stock of the TRU Truck. I would order online from TRU but then again I don't get VIP points, and TRU USA doesn't have the 3222 that I can see. I'd be patient with getting one in the USA next time I'm down but for some reason I have the inkling to get least one. Will look in Langley tomorrow anyway when we retool the show.

Hey Tim.

TRU on Broadway had about 10 of the TRU trucks today. They are $54.99. Are they super limited, or do you think they will be around for a while?

They might not last long on the shelf. The Yellow ones are sold out in Langley and Richmond (was just there today)
