I think that's normal for Aus stores not to have that one yet.. Luckily I got mine in America!

UCS Sandcrawler will be at Big W from tomorrow for $398

Ouch, but at least they have a stack of Great Vehicles for only 20 bucks each.

Haven't seen it mentioned here but Big W are doing another "family and friends" 10%-off-with-coupon this weekend (coupon is at https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/167065 ). Unlike the last one, they have wised up and excluded gift cards from the deal (so no 10% off MYER cards this time). Not sure how that stacks with their current catalog but the offer does say "including clearance items" so it might.

Just received Myer One email promoting additional 10% off toys... and Lego appears to NOT be excluded this time around. Nice.

Catalog price + MYER One voucher makes most of the items in their catalog good deals bargains.

Assuming the 10% off Friends and Family deal at Big W stacks, it makes some of their catalog deals bargains too.

Went to 3 Big Ws today. All UCS Sandcrawlers sold out. No further stock coming in during their sale. Sadness.

Got the deal of the year today. Used the 10% off Friends and Family at Big W (the original one that didn't say "excludes all gift cards") to purchase a $100 MYER Gift Card for $90. Then I went to MYER and bought the Ultra Agents truck at the $109 catalog price less another 10% from the MYER One "extra 10% off toys" (which for once didn't exclude LEGO) and paid with the $100 Gift Card. So in the end I got the set for $88.29 (which is about 36% off RRP if my math is correct) and based on current exchange rates as of earlier today about 22% off the US RRP.

Couldn't afford to buy the Arctic Base at the same time and couldn't get the people at Big W to combine the Friends and Family deal with lay-by so I could then pay it off once I get paid, Will probably bricklink the interesting bits (like the scientist fig) as soon as I can find a bricklink store in Oz who has one and that is fesable to order from (the one guy in Oz who has one only takes PayPal AND has a $20 minimum order limit and fees if you order too many things :(

I have just noticed that Target are selling the Simpson's house online for 279 dollars......not sure if that is an instore price as well ?

A little birdy told me that because the market got flooded with the houses they are now not selling and retailers are having a hard time moving them.

Edit - oop's silly me to forget, Toy Corner has their 15% off sale again and have just taken delivery of a fresh batch of Pet Shops.

Several Simpsons houses spotted at Target Robina for $279 ($50 off per the sign)

DJs Robina has town halls, palace cinemas, fqairground mixers, opera houses and vws

'jonwil' did you see the price on the PC......it's listed on Lego.com at 199 AUD which is a bit too cheap for such a set ?

Didn't see the price on the Palace Cinema since I wasn't interested in buying one.

Palace Cinema has been $199 since launch.

Managed to hit nearly every LEGO retailer at both Garden City and Carindale today (everywhere except the Mr Toys and Target at Carindale)

Both DJs have stocks of the Town Hall, Palace Cinema, Fairground Mixer, Opera House and VW. Carindale also had at least one Pet Shop.

Nothing worth writing home about at any of the other stores I visited (both MYER stores had nothing interesting, certainly nothing worth buying 3x of to get the special deal)

Okay, so I have been told Myers will have maybe Lego trains as part of their next toy sale starting at the end of the month.

Plus Kmart are having another Lego sale.......20 bucks for 28 dollar city sets and the bike shop/cafe creator set for 74 bucks.

From the 12th to 24th at TRU.......

Any sign of a David Jones sale coming up before Christmas?

Target 20% off Lego from Thursday 13/11.

Target 20% off Lego from Thursday 13/11.

By the sounds of it, this month is the best month to buy Lego......not the mid-year sales anymore.

Now Big W join the battle with a stack of city, creator, SH and SW sets for 15 bucks. https://www.bigw.com.au/bigw-catalogues.html?gclid=CIGEjNaS8cECFcGTvQodMkQAZw#view=catalogue2&saleId=7489&page=17

Oh and I forgot to mention that Kmart are advertising the City advent calendar for $40.

Shame no hobbit lego anywhere to take advantage of this opportunity.

TRU has a few Hobbit sets. I saw the new laketown set in there yesterday.......

It seems like the deals going around as of late seem to be deals on specific sets instead of blanket %off deals (Target being the notable exception)

Is the TRU deal only on selected sets? The Star Wars Star Destroyer and AT-AT aren't on the promo section of their website....

Edit: It IS on all sets.I assume existing discounts will stack as well.......
