jonwil Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 Anyone spotted the 2 small Creator sets (in the plastic containers) yet? Or the new Fire Station? Or any good deals on last years forest fire 4 x 4 fire truck?
Darth Malgus Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 Pretty sure the Rancor was $85, both Big W and K-Mart southland had 5 of the sets. Big W had the city HS chase set for $28, the fire boat rescue. K-mart were yet to put out their city product although they had a box for the Fire motorcycle. Seems its finally hitting.
jonwil Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 No February releases at Belmont Forum (either K-Mart or Big W). Plenty of stock at Big W of their sale items (police chase, museum break-in etc) though. All I need now is for a store to have both stock of the 2 fire sets I want (4208 4 x 4 fire truck and 60004 Fire Station) and a nice %off sale at the same time and I will have all the stuff I need to be able to start work on my fire truck MOCs :)
MandaloretheLesser Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 Hi guys. so glad i found this forum. Ok so does anyone know which store is selling sets 79004 Barrel Escape and 9476 The Orc Forge? I think i saw the Orc Forge at my local BigW and it sold really fast. Yet to see the Barrel Escape it's the last Hobbit set i need.
jonwil Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 The Orc Forge is a Big W exclusive and the Barrel Escape is a Toys R Us exclusive.
MandaloretheLesser Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 (edited) The Orc Forge is a Big W exclusive and the Barrel Escape is a Toys R Us exclusive. Thanks very much :D Edited January 24, 2013 by MandaloretheLesser
shawn_low Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Anyone spot at SW battle packs 9488 and 9489 at Myer Melbourne for their 3 for 2 sale? None at Myer Highpoint though items are listed as available on their website.
Alien24 Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 For anyone interested in free lego, TRU has a Lego Friends Make n Take event on the 9th of Feb. http://www.toysrus.com.au/lego-friends-make-take-event/i3624388/
lightningtiger Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 For anyone interested in free lego, TRU has a Lego Friends Make n Take event on the 9th of Feb. http://www.toysrus.c...event/i3624388/ Got my email.......but my son would'nt be interested so I would feel funny asking just for me to make it for my wife for Feb. 14th. Oh, by the way......Lego Club for January came today.....funny thing is no exclusive sets for any theme are listed only the general release stuff.
brickie Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Yesterday, I went to Myer at Carindale for their sale. The toy manager bought out an unopened box of series 9 from which I could choose. Whilst feeling my way through the packets, another BrisBricks member turned up and gave me a hand to pick a set of 16. They worked out at $3.30 each. Alas, this morning, they were opened by my granddaughters and I had a double; uurrrggghhh! I had two Fortune tellers and no Judge. Today I was out Logan way and I dropped into the hyperdome. Mr Toys had S9 for $4 each. When I started to feel some packets, the lady asked me which one I was after. A young fellow came up behind the counter and opened a display case and took out a judge; $4 thank you. Wow! I was blown away by the great service in both shops.
OzBen Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 saw 3 x 10225 R2D2 at target indooroopilly yesterday, 20% off sale, didnt see a price as they were stacked on the floor near the lego shelves. I thought these were all gone from stores........

I only buy my minifigures from Mr Toys now... $4 each and I can pick and choose from the display ones they have already opened. Picked up 3 footballers, 3 cheerleaders and a Santa from the one at Loganholme on Tuesday. Now I don't waste money on the ones I don't want!
distortme Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 Big W Marion has new SW, Creator (no Horizon), Chima, City and the Arctic Batman set.
jonwil Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 I think the Horizon Express is currently a Shop @ Home exclusive but (if past form is any indication) could well show up at retail sometime in the mid-year sales (if it appears it would likely be exclusive to someone but there is no way to know who) If we see it at retail before then I will be highly surprised.
Civic Bossman Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 Just like the previous TRU build special, the WA ones were all taken in less than an hour of the email being sent. Yet go to some east coast stores and there's dozens of spots left. Makes me wonder just how many spots there are over here.
DrWeevil Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 (edited) Given the Emerald Night and other trains have been Myer exclusives, along with the other 'adult' exclusives like sculptures. Given that, I'd say it's a pretty safe bet it'll be a Myer exclusive! Edited January 26, 2013 by DrWeevil
lostdriveway Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 I thought Lightningtiger had confirmed it being a Myer exclusive....
lightningtiger Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 To clear up what BigW Marion has in city......fire motorcycle and fire boat are the only new sets I saw that no one else has yet in SA.
KartoffelViking Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 Big W TTP (Adelaide) has Arctic Batman vs Mr Freeze for $38.
shawn_low Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 saw 3 x 10225 R2D2 at target indooroopilly yesterday, 20% off sale, didnt see a price as they were stacked on the floor near the lego shelves. I thought these were all gone from stores........ Some stores have stock from people who cancelled laybys. RRP is A$249.
jamonlego Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 saw spiderman spider-cycle (74004) at kmart - batman arctic too - $38 each
