AoNZ Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 (edited) AoNZ theres still 4hr 55 min till midnight madness. Ok Thanks. It's already Midday 26th here so can someone please take photos of the event. The sets are at Lego.com NZ including the tank. The Twilight costs the same as the AT-TE Edited July 26, 2008 by AoNZ
Legoman Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 (edited) HAHAHA! thats funny - twilight VS AT-TE - ummmm, thats a bit easy isn't it? "Well, good joke TLG, now, so whats the real price???" "TLG, Are You there?" (no respone - price stays the same) oh well - good for a laugh Edited July 26, 2008 by legoman

"TLG, Are You there?" (no respone - price stays the same) oh well - good for a laugh Hilarious and ridiculas at the same time I like the price on the spider droid, its what I expected I dont like that hard to find sign though All in all the prices are fairly good, but I dont think I'll be getting the magna droid fighter now
AoNZ Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 Hey I know this sounds kind of wierd but could someone give me the box dimensions and weight of: RGS, Clone Tank and Spider Droid. Thanks I need the box dimensions so I can determine how much shipping is.
Sithassassin Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 (edited) Ok I just went to toysrus and was the last one to leave the only things up were a big clone wras poster and price tags. The spider walker is $35 USD!!!!!! Thats outragous. The ATTE is thankfully $89.99 like it is supposed to be but the rep. gunship is $129.99 which is ten more than listed. Right now Im furious. They also had the V-19 and the magnaguard starfighter. The V-19 was $59.99 and the magna guard fighter was $49.99. I am so Along with that there was the Twilight and it was $99.99 Edited July 26, 2008 by Sithassassin
Oky Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 It seems that all of the sets are available on S@H now for every country except the US. Do you guys think this means that the TRU exclusives will be available in LEGO Retail stores as well?

Cyclone Titan Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 2 and a half hours til' for us Chicagoans! CT
Sithassassin Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 No I didnt buy any they were only the price tags. Im an so AAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!
AoNZ Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 No I didnt buy any they were only the price tags.Im an so AAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!! Yea I'm with you I thought the HSD would be 20-25 usd but 35 usd that's a bit more than I would've expected. I was going to order them from the U.S as it worked out cheaper. But now that I know those prices it's more expensive so I have to stick to buying it here. Now we can't buy multiples
Lego12 Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 I didn't get the gunship today. They wouldn't sell it to me! Guess i'll buy it at 1:30 tommorow. Like everybody else.
Shikari Zu Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 Wow, maybe if the Twilight was cheaper I'd perhaps consider buying it just to make my collection fuller. But, $99.99... wtf? How about, if I had that extra $100 I'd just buy another MTT, or an AT-TE, or perhaps and extra tank. lol...

I was going to order them from the U.S as it worked out cheaper. But now that I know those prices it's more expensive so I have to stick to buying it here. Now we can't buy multiples Maybe its only $20 or $25 on lego.com, because the TRU prices are all over-priced(except for AT-TE). Me and Sithassassin both experienced bad events. He didn't get anything and neither did I! But they will pay, they will ALL pay! JK!
AoNZ Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 Ok so there's still hope for better prices elsewhere. Could someone give me the box dimensions and weight of: RGS, Clone Tank and HSD. Thanks. Just asking those of you who are going to get the sets new as then I can get the correct weight.
Shikari Zu Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 I hope there will be HSD left over, because I'm not going lol.
commanderbly42 Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 Nothing happened on the website. It's midnight here and not one new set has showed up.
Shikari Zu Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 Actually Commander, if you are located in the eastern time zone in the US; you'll still have to wait until around 5 am because they are not going to update the site while it's still early in the night in California for example.

So I just stayed up late for nothing. So what was the point of the clock?
Dragonator Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 The NZ prices are really overpriced IMO. Overpriced, but true unfortunately. Those prices agree with the ones I got from my local store manager, except for the RGS and the AT-TE. I am assuming that I just heard them wrong. I was out by $20 on both, so I must have been. Look at the price on the twilight! I think I might pass on that one. The Droid Gunship isn't to bad though, at least a little more reasonable than some of the others... So, who thinks that the RGS comes with 4 Clones, aye? What, why are you all looking at me like that? Did I miss something?
Shikari Zu Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 I'm pretty sure the RGS comes with the measly 2 clones. >.> Sheesh Lego, always so generous.. lol
Svelte Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 Overpriced, but true unfortunately. Those prices agree with the ones I got from my local store manager, except for the RGS and the AT-TE. I am assuming that I just heard them wrong. I was out by $20 on both, so I must have been. The NZ prices are very good! Practically better than everyone else outside the US. $200NZ for the Gunship is about 95Euros $155AUD - we pay retail $AUD180 and the Euro price is between EUR130-150 For the smaller sets which have the same numerical listed price as the Aus price, you're doing even better! Droid Gunship - retails $NZ59.99 - worth $AUD45 or 28EUR but retail price is $AUD60 or EUR35-40 Republic tank - retails $NZ99.99 - worth $AUD77 or 47EUR but retail price is $AUD99.99 or EUR65-70. You guys have it OK

You guys have it OK You know I feel much better after that, thanks! It's great to see NZ getting it better for once, we usually get some of the worst deals. Like that 10188 Death Star. I mean $799.99!!! It's crazy! And to think I could have got it for $429.99 (+ shipping) if I had just pre-ordered it...
