Title: No joke, I found FI?URES at the Dollar Tree in the US, $1 a piece
Post by: AgeOwns on January 27, 2021, 05:36:13

My Dollar Tree is usually garbage.

Low and behold I saw someone mention that they got the Playmobil FI?URES mystery series so I went to check it out.
They had Girls Series 15 and 16, and Boys Series 11.

I live in Maryland.
Happy hunting!

I wish....

Last figures I saw "in the wild" were a few.. s17 on the post office weeks ago (before the new "stay home rules")... and that was the first time I saw them there. Before that... I don't even remember.

Question is, didn't you get them all?  ;D

I got 9!
(I always feel guilty taking too many from legit kids that would otherwise never have playmobil)
I'm going to wait a little bit and go get more if they're still there.

I got the "Capt America" Pilot (x2)
Rapunzel
Lady with Opera Glasses
Buffalo Hat Native American
Alien Lady
Norse Fighter
Lady Astronaut
Faiery

Thanks, AgeOwns!

We just found a few boys from 11 at 2 of our local stores (out of the 7 we visited) but we got some nice custom pieces.

Good heads-up!

Thanks from me too! Mom and I got like 48/49 of them at one of ours here in Louisana! Series 11 too (although we already had them all anyway). Unbelievably, out of all of those bags, only ONE ghost butler.

That is a big haul, Janilew!

 Our 2-store total inventory was only about a dozen.  But fewer bags to squeeze is a good thing too.

 We found a butler and a spartan right away at a store with 7 bags, so we were happy, despite the scant inventory.

We found another one! We found like 20-something girls at another Dollar Tree and it was Series 16! My mom bought the whole case, and yet not a single ballerina, detective, or princess. Oh well, guess we gotta keep searching! ;) Turns out this was a thing for a while, as someone found Series 9 in 2019. And I managed to find the Series 11 boys in a couple locations (no girls for some reason. But I found more ghost butlers!  :love:)

Seriously, thanks AgeOwns for bringing this our attention. We could've never, EVER guessed to look in a dollar store for Playmobil!  :**:
