    Good luck in your searches. I have about 200 spares but it seems anything that is a multiple of 6 is super hard to come across and I have almost no doubles of those, certainly not the ones you are after mate.

    You may want to ask the cashier at Woollies with a stern face. Apparently some staff members have been looking through the assortment and stealing the rarer ones for themselves

    Staff have been stealing woolworths promo items for years, any time there's some animal card or in this case marvel disks there's always a few in every store taking boxes of the things home to sell on ebay, it's nothing new.
    I think it's only actually being talked about this time because the marvel disks have been the most popular promotion so far, but fact is that it always happens and there are always "rare" items in these sets to make you spend more money then you should be for a bit of cardboard/plastic.

    Also sorry no, I dont have those disks SB, my local store "ran out" of them a week ago so I've missed getting a bunch as well.

    I don't collect these, but my mother had a few unopened ones lying around so I just checked what there was.
    Star-Lord, Rocket Raccoon, Groot...and Thanos.

    Am happy to send it your way, happier still to sort a trade...I don't suppose your local KMarts (does Canberra even have any KMarts?) have a spare Shuffler do they?

    Same offer goes for anyone after any/all of the rest.

    That's great Ode!

    No idea what a shuffler is? But I can check.

    And Yes we have Kmart....many.

    Check some local to you FB selling groups. They're full of these things for trading. How do people afford them though? Got to spend $20 on a shop to get one. There's like 42, so gotta spend $840 to get a set. That's what turned me off these.

    Whenever I've gone, they always give me a handful. Sometimes I haven't even spent $20 and I still get them. My nephew plays with them so I just ask if I can have a couple for him.

    My local Woolworths ran out of discs... rage. I started collecting quite late as I usually go to coles, so if you guys have spares willing to give away I can come collect it Sydney/Paramatta area.

    Facebook got a marvel swap page where lot of people offer swap if you are interested, but not much of the rares.

    There is a hack to get all the disc if you have a Marvel disc folder to spare. Rip the folder, cut the pic from the folder and stick to a similar colour disc. Its the same print, same size and if you cut it nice enough, cant tell the different between real and fake disc.
