Dimensions at Dollarama

Post by jeffrose »

Reports coming in of LEGO Dimensions sets at Dollarama for just $4.00 in Canada.

I don't buy those, so I don't know how good a deal it is. Certainly not the $0.99 they're paying in the US, but...

Probably the oldest waves (i.e. the ones most people already have) but considering the MSRP for Dimensions sets start at $14.99 that's still a great deal - either for someone wanting to get into Dimensions, or for people who just want them for the figs.

Probably. Some of the older ones are on sale at shop.LEGO.com too in case you want to pay a bit more and get a Batman.

I may find a Dollarama tomorrow and see what's what. Figures are fun.

It usually takes a few days for stuff at Dollarama to trickle down over to this coast.

I'll try to check the one on Marine Drive in Marpole this weekend.

I picked up about 60 packs at the $0.99 price in the states. Each store had a different selection of ones available - some very cool, some less so. The Jurassic Park one is great, and I got a whole bunch of the Gimli one for the dwarfs. If I had more time down there, I may have shopped around more.

The Richmond Bridgeport one didn't have any this afternoon. I didn't scour the entire store though. I was surprised at how busy it was.

The store downtown near Waterfront had just a few - a couple Gimli's, a couple of the Emmet construction ones, and a few Unikitty. I picked up one Unikitty because I hadn't found any down South. Probably like 10 packs total on the shelf, who knows how much they might have in stock...the stores in California had huge piles of them and full endcap displays.

North Van:
Didn't find any at Marine Drive location
Grabbed some Unikitty, Emmet, and Gimley ones from Main Street location.
I probably have a couple Unikittys to spare.
That's all that was left too (although I didn't ask about stock in back)

Which ones do you want? I can swing by the one closest to me which have the ones John mentioned.

Not all Dollaramas are made equal, for the most part I really like them, except for the Landsdowne location, I absolutely loathe that one. I have never found anything that I need there. Fortunately, there are two other ones in Richmond that are close by.

You'll notice that some locations have shelves with boxes on the top and some don't (which gives it a nice cleaner feel). Sometimes if you don't see what you're looking for you can just look up and it's there. You just need someone to get it for you. The one's that store all the excess boxes at the back like SW Marine Drive, you would have to have someone go to the back which is much less convenient.

Apologies, I only made it Dollarama on SW Marine Drive today and as you can probably guess they were sold out of all LEGO Dimensions at that location. Hopefully you've found what you're looking for.

Update For Squamish:
Emmet
Unikitty
BadCop
Aris
Gollum
Sold out: Leglas and Gimli. They did rotate Gollum in after I clear room for by buying all the Gimli's. So this could mean constant stock(reasons to check more often) or the newer stuff will eventually come in.

Keith, I'll take 10 Gollum if they still have it.

I checked DT Van today and all were gone. At least I couldn't find any and two different staff said they were gone.
