Two offenders, lacking in Christmas spirit, forced their way through the front doors of the store on Murray Street in Colac about 4am.
With only two sleeps left until Christmas, Santa's elves will have to work overtime as the pair stole $3K worth of Lego sets.

Police have released CCTV and images of two men who may assist police with their enquiries.
Investigators believe the offenders entered the store the day prior to the burglary.
The first offender is described as Caucasian in appearance, 160cms tall, of medium build, with black hair and wearing a black t-shirt, grey pants, grey runners and a black motorcycle helmet.
The second offender is described as Caucasian in appearance, 188cms tall, of medium build, with brown hair and wearing grey tracksuit pants, white runners, a black baseball cap and a distinctive black and white t-shirt.
