A week and a half ago we received an email asking when we thought\u00a0LEGO Minecraft<\/strong>\u00a0would be available again. We replied that “according to our tracker history, next week would be likely”. This was based on previous stock history that showed that at the end of each of the past 3 months shipments arrived and stock was available. Well, that week came and went with nothing more than an error at Walmart. I bet Walmart had a shipment scheduled for arrival; it just never showed. I guess LEGO feels as though it doesn’t really matter when they ship this item, it will sell… even after Christmas it will sell. Heck, units are for sale at Amazon for $128!<\/p>\n

A backup plan…<\/strong><\/p>\n

With that said, it might not be time to hit the panic button quite yet, but it is time to start thinking of a backup plan for things under the tree. The other day I got a request to track a Minecraft item over at\u00a0ThinkGeek<\/a>. Being a bit of a fan on Minecraft myself (even though I never have time to play), I thought this was a great little item. It is the\u00a0Light-Up Redstone Ore<\/strong><\/a>. Currently this item is out of stock, but we added it to a new\u00a0Minecraft Items tracker<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>in case you want alerted on it.<\/p>\n

An IN STOCK backup plan…<\/strong><\/p>\n

Just a few minutes ago while browsing the\u00a0ThinkGeek<\/a>\u00a0site we saw something\u00a0NEW<\/strong>… the\u00a0Light-Up Torch<\/strong><\/a>. Wow… another great backup\/additional gift idea for that Minecraft fan.\u00a0Click here<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0to buy this item now before it is gone!<\/p>\n

\"Light-Up<\/p>\n
