(...) Yeah, I'm guessing that everyone was tired of constantly putting LEGO on clearance, and finally ordered less this year. It is kind of strange that the shrinkage has been so consistent over different retailers. Or maybe TLC is paying for less (...) (19 years ago, 28-Dec-05, to lugnet.market.shopping, FTX)

(...) I can echo everyone else's sentiments. The 11 Targets I've been to have either been picked clean or had most of what you've all mentioned. In addition, most Racers sets and the 4096 tubs are on clearance as well. At one store, I found a few (...) (19 years ago, 28-Dec-05, to lugnet.market.shopping)

I'm seeing Quatro, Thomas, and Knights' Kingdom on clearance. No clearance of Vahki or LEGOVille, even though that's the stuff that's still on the shelves in significant quantities. TWS Garrison (19 years ago, 25-Dec-05, to lugnet.market.shopping)

I have a feeling that they aren't though, and that they seriously under-estimated demand and now do not have the production capacity to play catch-up quickly enough. I also hope that quality (...)
