It must be off-putting, maybe even unbearable for some, in the US to read about what special events and promotions are carrying on in overseas Toys R Us stores, when their main stateside brethren have already closed down. Nevertheless, here’s a LEGO-related event happening in TRU Germany that we’re going to take a look at.

Perhaps one sorely missed period in a year at Toys R Us is the Bricktober special where some exclusive sets are released for a limited time only. German LEGO news source Promobricks has managed to score information on their TRU Bricktober 2018 edition sets thanks to a local promotional flyer.

Thus far, four LEGO Bricktober sets are set to arrive on Toys R Us Germany, all collectible minifigures from four prominent franchises. First is the LEGO Harry Potter set (500254) with minfigs of Madame Hooch, Professor Slughorn, Dolores Umbridge and Snape-form Boggart. It will be available for a week from August 27 to September 2.

Hopefully LEGO realizes that these collectible minifigures for Bricktober 2018 would still find eager customers in the now TRU-less USA. In the meantime, these sets when they arrive in TRU Germany will be available free for every minimum LEGO purchase of €40 each. It’s not known yet if they also could be purchased regularly there.
