This arrived today.

Who would have thought that a little hobby that started in 2014 would grow into this. What began as sorting spare minifigure parts at the kitchen table has genuinely got out of hand in the best possible way - over 6000 products, our own website and now 100,000 orders on eBay.

None of it happens without the customers who kept coming back, kept trusting us, kept building. So thank you - every single one of you got us here.

Here's to the next 100,000. 🧱

🚨 CODE RED AT THE JAMJARTOYS WAREHOUSE 🚨
The clock is ticking and panic has officially set in.
Hawaiian Shirt Dave (you'll remember him from the suitcase incident) is now sprinting around with a trolley full of boxes marked "ORDERS DUE," sweating through his shirt, while everyone else is — and we cannot stress this enough — still building sandcastles.
Someone left a camera unattended on a towel. Nobody has picked it up. Priorities, people.
The sign couldn't be clearer if it tried:

⚠️ We close tomorrow

🌙 Sunday evening, to be precise

🛒 Last minute orders = NOW, not "in a bit"
If you've been "meaning to order that minifigure head" for the last three weeks, this is your moment. After tomorrow night, Dave stops running and starts relaxing, and frankly, he's earned it.

Don't be the reason Dave doesn't get his holiday. 😅
🧱 Shop now, link in bio

⏰ Last orders: Sunday evening

🏖️ We're back 30th June

🚨 BREAKING NEWS FROM THE JAMJARTOYS WAREHOUSE 🚨
At approximately 9am this morning, our entire workforce downed tools and staged a mutiny.
Demands included: sunshine, sand, a beach umbrella, and at least one cocktail with a tiny umbrella in it. 🍹
After lengthy negotiations (they threatened to hide all the hair pieces), management caved. We are officially on holiday from 22nd June.
You'll notice from the photographic evidence that Hawaiian Shirt Steph has already got her suitcase. The sandcastle crew are mid-build. Someone has brought a camera and is documenting everything. Nobody is thinking about torsos.
We don't blame them.
So here's the deal:

🧱 Need parts? Get your orders in before midnight on Sunday 21st June

📦 Everything ordered before then ships before we go

☀️ We're back on 30th June, tanned, refreshed and ready to ship
The warehouse will still be here. The parts will still be here. We however, will not.
See you on the other side! 🏖️

🎸 1-2-3-4! 🥁
Hey ho, LEtsGO! We’re forming in a straight line…
…and immediately losing formation because someone spotted an ice cream van. 🍦

JamJarToys is hitting pause TOMORROW NIGHT for a legendary (and slightly chaotic) Minifig Holiday.

The minifigs have downed tools, grabbed tiny guitars, and gone on tour break. Orders placed before Friday night ship as usual. After that, we’re OOO until March 8th.

There will be a beach mosh pit.
There will be sand in places sand should never be.
There will be at least one minifig insisting they packed sunscreen (they did not). 🏖️😎

📦 Order before tomorrow night = ships as normal.
📦 Order after = your minifigs are waiting backstage until March 8th.

Grab your bricks now — or come back to a Sorting Table that looks like a tiny punk festival happened and nobody cleaned up. 🎸🧱

Don’t be the minifig yelling:
“WAIT— I STILL NEED A DARK ORANGE WIG!”
at a closed shop window.

🚨 JANUARY SALE – MINIFIG EDITION 🚨
Your minifig army is under-accessorised.
Don’t argue. You know it’s true.
🧱 JamJarToys January Sale
✨ 10% OFF EVERYTHING ✨
(minifigures, accessories, body parts included)
Need a new helmet?
A sword?
That one accessory you definitely don’t need but absolutely want?
⏰ ENDS SATURDAY — after that, the minifigs pay full price and they WILL judge you.
🛒 Grab it now. Your figures deserve better.

Get ready to dive headfirst into the chaotic world of minifigure mayhem because our January Sale is officially ON! 🥳 Seriously, just look at this picture – it's basically our entire inventory of LEGO minifigures and accessories throwing the wildest, most epic party ever. 🎉

We tried to organise them, we really did, but when you tell a tiny LEGO person there's 10% off EVERYTHING, they tend to lose their minds a little. We've got minifigures spilling out of jars like they're escaping Alcatraz, a rhino-riding adventurer looking absolutely thrilled with the stampede, and even a unicyclist trying to navigate the festive string lights. ✨ It's pure, unadulterated minifigure pandemonium, and we wouldn't have it any other way!

So, if you've been eyeing that rare minifig, or your current collection needs a serious accessory upgrade, now's the time! Head over to Jamjartoys and grab yourself a piece of the action (and a sweet 10% off!). Just try not to get trampled by the joyous minifig rush. 😉

Christmas shopping has officially begun… and so has the annual festive breakdown at JamJarToys HQ. 🎄🧱😂
Our elves attempted to build the “perfect Christmas tree” this year.
Instead, they accidentally created:
✔️ A leaning tower of pine-scented regret
✔️ A gravity-defying elf trampoline
✔️ A full-scale brick avalanche
✔️ A workplace incident report waiting to happen
Highlights include:
– One elf dangling from a bauble like he’s auditioning for Cirque du Soleil
– Another buried under 400+ bricks holding a sign that simply says “SEND SPARE PIECES!”
– A third elf who has accepted his fate and is now part of the tree
– And a big cheery sign in the back encouraging everyone to BUILD RESPONSIBLY, which feels like sarcasm at this point
Meanwhile shoppers stroll by like “Ah yes, the magic of the season.”
And honestly? Same.
Happy Christmas shopping, folks — may your builds be sturdy, your ornaments stay attached, and your elves remain upright. 😅🎁

Welcome to the official kickoff of Xmas Shopping Season at JamJarToys, where the elves are definitely not prepared and the reindeer did NOT sign up for this. 🎄🧱😂
Santa’s “highly trained” crew is out here practicing emergency delivery drills and… well… the results are mixed:
– One elf is clinging to a reindeer like he’s riding a runaway rollercoaster
– Another is yeeting presents into the void with Olympic-level enthusiasm but zero accuracy
– The sleigh appears to have entered “full send” mode
– And someone built a Christmas tree so wobbly it collapses every time an elf sneezes
Meanwhile, the banner proudly shouts XMAS SHOPPING SEASON – STRAP IN!, which feels less like a friendly announcement and more like a warning from someone who knows what’s coming.
So hold onto your bricks, your baubles, and your sanity —
because the elves are already in chaos, the gifts are flying, and Christmas shopping is officially ON. ✨🎁
