TanTile Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 spotted the 3648 Police Chase at Target today at Werribee and Deer Park in Melbourne $39 each… happy hunting
distortme Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 My Clone Turbo Tank from B@N has shipped, so pretty happy right now to score it at a nice price, even if I only used one Groupon with the 30% off. Thanks again ang911 for the deal! Snap - so did mine.
slopemodified Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 Big W is putting some sets on clearance, this is what I saw on the shelf: 7591 Construct-a-Zurg for $12 ($28 normally) 7598 Pizza Planet Truck - $30!

AussieJimbo Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 (edited) Thanks slopemodified, Those are some pretty good deals especially on Toy Story, I'll have to drop into the local Big W tomorrow to see what's available. :classic: Edited February 16, 2011 by AussieJimbo

I heard that the Garbage Truck is also on clearance, but there weren't any
AussieJimbo Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 No worries. I heard that the Garbage Truck is also on clearance, but there weren't any Yeah, the trick is having it in stock in the first place. I don't recall much TS in stock last time a visited but it's definitely worth a look. Train chase is a good source of extra train parts at that price and Zurg has some pretty interesting bricks too (and an extra one of those cool aliens.) :classic:
lightningtiger Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 spotted the 3648 Police Chase at Target today at Werribee and Deer Park in Melbourne $39 each… happy hunting Okay, time to check a few Targets tomorrow eh ? But all else seems quiet - no fresh sets or specials....apart from TRU Ninjago that I reported the other day.
distortme Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 Okay, time to check a few Targets tomorrow eh ? But all else seems quiet - no fresh sets or specials....apart from TRU Ninjago that I reported the other day. Seen any TRU Geonosis sets in your travels?
QUaGi Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 Quickly, TRU from the 17th for a week 20% off selected Ninjago - basically the spinners and the TRU exclusive Skeleton Bowling for only 39.99 (normally 49.99). A couple of games as well, but no special prices. Keep on shopping and spinning ! I spoke to a TRU store manager today who confirmed most stores have not been restocking much of anything so far this year. All stores have to complete stocktake by end of February. This explains why most stores have only received only a select range of the 2011 LEGO sets, and also the lack of sales (except from this week). Expect a lot more to come through once March rolls by.
jonwil Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 Not sure if its been noted before but today I spotted the new Hero Factory 2.0 sets in MYER. Any further reports on who will be getting the bank robbery set?
lightningtiger Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 Any further reports on who will be getting the bank robbery set? Kmart, still two months away.....well at least we all might be able to score the police chase set eh ? I'm also checking Toyworld and TRU tomorrow. Brick On Everyone !
Hemish Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 cheap toy story If you can find it I got lotso dump truck and pizza planet truck from my local, they had the trains as well but nothing else from that line. Might try a couple other stores after I pick up the kids from school this afternoon
lightningtiger Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 3648 Police Chase which I have just review in the town forum was one of only 4 units on the shelf.....before you ask....Target Newton....yep, down the road from Hewman ! Brick On !
AussieJimbo Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 (edited) Picked up a Wampa and the last Train Chase at Big W Woden. (And a small passenger plane and fireman and construction worker key ring lights at normal price because I can't help myself.) Thanks again for the tip, slopemodified. (and Hemish for that online link) Still haven't seen the Sort and Store anywhere in Canberra, anyone seen it in Sydney? :classic: Edited February 17, 2011 by AussieJimbo
lightningtiger Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Police Chase is also available in greater numbers at Target T.T.P. tonight. No joy at two TRU's, no exclusive sets at all....they don't know when city, SW and Ninjago exclusive are comming......typical eh ? Anyway, Brick On !
craym0nk Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Not much luck at Big W Cockburn one Clone Turbo Tank on the shelf I think a lady was trying to lay-buy two of them which you can't do on clearance items. Plenty of Wampa Cave, Palpy Shuttle & Slave 1s plus the World Racers set. Managed to resist, will keep an eye on them for further reductions. Decided to try Big W Phoenix, they had 4x Toy Story Trains, and maybe 6x each of the Dump Truck and Pizza Planet Truck. No Woody's Roundup, Trash Compactor Escape or Zurg, which are the ones I was after. Good hunting.
Hewman Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 For those still to spend a B&N groupon voucher or 30% off voucher, they appear to be adding some older lego sets like The Burrow or the Star Wars Hoth Wampa set, when I've seen this happen before, sets haven't lasted long.
jonwil Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 I heard a rumor over on another forum "Just heard from one of my suppliers that Lego are re-introducing the Grand Carousel set soon."
lightningtiger Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 Guess what I got for 79.95 at one of my suppliers, clue.....police vehicle no.6 and a gold credit card ! They also have quite a bit of PQ ! PM me and I'll tell you ! Keep on looking and hunting.....you never know what you might find !

PM me and I'll tell you ! Keep on looking and hunting.....you never know what you might find ! If we're talking cool stuff for today, I got my 10213 Shuttle Adventure today. It's very awesome. $150 and free delivery as it was local. This weekends build I think.

It's very awesome. $150 and free delivery as it was local. This weekends build I think. True, at least this shuttle looks nice as compared with the city one comming ! But did you guess the set I brought.....as good as money in the.....! Oh, and that PQ stuff also included the mummy battle pack too....sorry didn't get any prices ! Brick On !
jonwil Posted February 19, 2011 Posted February 19, 2011 For those in Perth looking, the Target store in the CBD has restocked including the police chase and Minifigures S3
Godspeed Posted February 19, 2011 Posted February 19, 2011 Can someone please tell me what the 30% off B&N is? I would look through the thread, but it's VERY long and have no clue what page it's on.

Wasn't too far back - 3 pages maybe - but the page count here is pretty overwhelming. Try this: N7K9R7V.
Godspeed Posted February 19, 2011 Posted February 19, 2011 Wasn't too far back - 3 pages maybe - but the page count here is pretty overwhelming. Try this: N7K9R7V. Thanks mate. So this is for the US Barnes & Noble site? If I understand correctly, the free shipping doesn't apply to Australia so we have to pay shipping fees right? Still, that brought the Turbo Tank to $83. Also, what's the RRP for the midi-scale SD? As others have seen too, Kmart has it on clearance for $49 and I'm wondering how much of a saving that is.
