I wonder if anyone can provide any info regarding the availability of Star Wars
polybags.

Is it that they are generally available in the USA and perhaps other Countries
?

I have yet to find any here in the U.K. other than the now defunct newspaper
giveaways.

Every store I’ve ever found seems to stock City, Friends, Ninjago and Duplo poly
bags, not a single Star Wars.

Thanks

Just to correct myself, I have found an odd few non minifigure Star Wars polybags.

Forgot about those.

Mainly wondering about those SW with mini figures.

I've definitely seen SW polybags w/o minifigures, but I don't think I've
seen any with. Typically even small SW sets with minifigures are sold in boxes.

Thanks, I presume those with minifigures are normally from special events.

Item available free with minimum purchase from the LEGO Shop at Home website
and in LEGO retail stores for only a few days in mid-December, 2018.

Maybe most of them are / were free give-aways?! Or came with magazines/books.

You can get the foil bags on the magazines but don't see many Star Wars polybags
about.
