It seems like years ago everything was Bob the builder, now I can't find anything, it's all Handy Mandy. What's the deal, is he retired or something? Where can I find toys, clothes, anything for my nephew? Everything I've found seems to be on ebay and/or ridiculously overpriced, $40+ for a small duplo set? Please help! Thanks :)

I just sold a small box full of Bob the Builder stuff to a mama in Canada, lol! But not our Duplos; we're missing one big piece. If they are that expensive on ebay, though, maybe I need to look harder for the missing piece, lol!

Thanks for the help, does anyone know if any stores still carry Bob stuff, new? TIA!

I think they've discontinued most of it. I've had luck finding a few pieces at TJ Maxx and Tuesday Morning. Check Big Lots, too.

Amazon.com or Amazon.de (German Amazon, not sure what shipping charges to US would be) - Bob is very popular here, there's tons of stuff at Toys R Us, Aldi etc. I didn't realize he isn't popular in the US anymore.

ETA If you search Amazon.de, use Bob der Baumeister. Some things say that, and some say Bob the Builder. We got DS a really cute "Bob der Baumeister" raincoat and I liked that it was written the German way.

http://bob-the-builder.allaboardtoys.com/ a few things.

Duplo: http://www.amazon.com/Lego-Builder-Scoop-Bobland-3595/dp/B0028PR2LA

Prices seem a bit high, but really not overly bad, considering Duplo isn't cheap.

I was looking for things 1-2 years ago, and I found the same thing. Most Bob the Builder stuff has been discontinued and no longer carried in brick and mortar stores. This site has a nice selection: www.trainsgalore.com. I have ordered from them and they have good customer service. We found the majority of our Bob vehicles on Craigslist, and at garage sales. Good luck!
