BWLO: Little People Zoo - Extra Figures?

Does anyone have the Little People Zoo for the LO? If so, were you able to find the extra animal figures anywhere?

MIL bought Nora the zoo, and it's adorable, but only comes with three animals (and there are apparently 12 more available). We want to try to collect the extra animals for her over time, but we have been unable to find them anywhere. We knew in advance that MIL got this for Nora, so we looked throughout the last several weeks while we were out Christmas shopping. Target, Walmart, TRU--couldn't find them. They're available online but are ridiculously expensive.

Just curious if anyone got lucky anywhere and/or knew a good place to find them.

Re: BWLO: Little People Zoo - Extra Figures?

  • We got Julia this for Christmas also and have been collecting the additional animals. I looked online and saw them for $15 and almost returned it because of that! I knew there was no way I would buy very many of them for that price. I found a gorilla at TRU for $5 and snatched it up (I later realized that came with the zoo). Since then I have gotten her the bear, seal, penguin, tiger, rhino and ostrich at Wal-Mart for $2.50-$3.00 depending on the animal. I would keep checking Wal-Mart, sometimes ours has them sometimes they don't. They had several a few weeks ago and I went back to get the alligator and elephant and they were all gone. I checked yesterday and they had them back in stock, but only the ones she already has.

  • Thanks, Heather. Where did you find them in Walmart? Near all the rest of the Little People stuff? That seems like common sense, but I did some more Googling this morning and it sounded like a lot of people were finding them in the Christmas/stocking stuffer section of Target in December. WTF--I never would have thought to look there, so I guess we missed out! 

  • I found one in Target when I was buying the Little People ramp thing we got for Collin and I almost picked it up because I had heard how expensive they were online. It looked to be out of place though because there wasn't a spot for it anywhere on that aisle. My guess is maybe they will be back with the Little People once the craziness from Christmas is cleaned up but it is just a guess. May be a store employee could point you in the right direction?

  • Do they specifically say for the Little People Zoo on it?  We got T a bunch of little people stuff for Christmas.  We found these tubes that had 2 little people/animals and then something extra (one was a campfire the other a food trough).  They were at Meijers for $4.99 for the 3 pieces.  It seems to me they were for different Little People things, but we didn't pay much attention to it because we were just picking up a few extras for the airplane and castle we bought.

  • Heather, they were in the toy section but oddly enough they were not with the Little People stuff. I looked for them on several different trips before I found them. In our Wal-Mart they were on the same aisle as the Little People and other toddler toys, but they were at the other end of the aisle in the Fisher Price Laugh & Learn toy section. I don't ask questions about Wal-Marts layout/ogranization anymore. It never makes sense to me...
