KartoffelViking Posted June 17, 2011 Posted June 17, 2011 I'm guess the excavator with PF and or the supercar.... same as myer pacific fair That's the one, massive yellow bulldozer PF set. Coolies, thanks
lightningtiger Posted June 17, 2011 Posted June 17, 2011 Now what can I tell you without causing trouble, okay.......Target is getting some Star Wars exclusive for their toy sale and as expected Kmart is getting the first bite of the harbour range from Lego City. Keep on looking !

distortme Posted June 17, 2011 Posted June 17, 2011 Mace Windu's starfighter is the only possibility isn't it? Unless it's new Naboo starfighter? Or the fabled Hoth set (which I've heard is TRU late in the year)…
Hewman Posted June 17, 2011 Posted June 17, 2011 Unless it's new Naboo starfighter? Or the fabled Hoth set (which I've heard is TRU late in the year)… I was guessing it's something in the latest catalogue. And Mace's ship was there with the star next to it as an exclusive (not like the star I saw next to the MF which turned out to be for NZ). I'm 99% sure that the Hoth set wil be Toys R Us in Aus. as well as USA.

I picked up 5 of them overseas for $60 each and can guarantee I will have no such luck with the latest release
lightningtiger Posted June 17, 2011 Posted June 17, 2011 I wasn't really told, but a wink of an eye was too a particular shuttle with some black evil dude on board !
Hewman Posted June 17, 2011 Posted June 17, 2011 (edited) I wasn't really told, but a wink of an eye was too a particular shuttle with some black evil dude on board ! Surprising, the Imperial Shuttle, that's a pretty expensive toy for Target. Although k-mart did get some huge star wars sets that shocked me as well. Edited June 17, 2011 by hewman
TheDarkness Posted June 17, 2011 Posted June 17, 2011 Surprising, the Imperial Shuttle, that's a pretty expensive toy for Target. Although k-mart did get some huge star wars sets that shocked me as well. Yep, they had the Millenium Falcon UCS, Death Star Playset and AT-OT.
lightningtiger Posted June 17, 2011 Posted June 17, 2011 Yep, they had the Millenium Falcon UCS, Death Star Playset and AT-OT. Yep, back in the day they sold TV's, hardware and golf clubs.....now they are just a cheap store flogging off cheap stuff, but in saying that I noticed TTP Kmart was fitting out ready for their Toy Sale - no extra Lego out yet......but I'm going to check two others in a moment...reporting back later on tonight.

Keep on looking ! Yay, finally word of the exclusives! Seems like Mace Windu's Starfighter is the only possibility, I don't think the other two exclusives are going to be out here for at least a month. Edit: Wait, it's the Imperial Shuttle? That's kind of unexpected for Target. Too bad on the news that Pharaoh's Quest will be a Big W exclusive, as I don't live close to one. This is the first time that I know of where an entire line is exclusive to one retailer. Edited June 17, 2011 by Delta 38

This is the first time that I know of where an entire line is exclusive to one retailer. You can still get most (except the pyramid set) sets from Barnes and Noble and even with shipping (if you buy them all) they'll be cheaper than Big W. Also if you join the kids club you get $5 of vouchers for each $100 spent.
lightningtiger Posted June 17, 2011 Posted June 17, 2011 And the news about PQ doesn't get any better, because BigW will the one and only plus they are only here for their toy sale....after which pot luck.

lightningtiger Posted June 17, 2011 Posted June 17, 2011 Sorry, did not understand what you are saying there, at all..... Okay, more simply.....once BigW runs out of PQ.....that's it.....no more and no else will get them unless they import them.
ang911 Posted June 17, 2011 Posted June 17, 2011 Okay, more simply.....once BigW runs out of PQ.....that's it.....no more and no else will get them unless they import them. Excuse me but your post made no sense, and you say that like I am the simple one for not being able to understand it. A more appropriate response would have been something like, sorry I didn't make a lot of sense there, what I meant was....

Edit: Only have 1 Shuttle left. I've been getting complaints about this, and after some thought I agree. No more store updates from sellers. That is, this topic is meant for people to trade and report finds, not for free advertising from shops. (No, we're not asking for money.) Feel free to post in the BSTF forum like everyone else does, but be aware that the bumping rule does apply so don't overpost updates. (Once a month is tolerable, but once again we really don't want BSTF to become a haven for free advertising.) If you have any questions PM me. Yep, back in the day they sold TV's, hardware and golf clubs.....now they are just a cheap store flogging off cheap stuff, but in saying that I noticed TTP Kmart was fitting out ready for their Toy Sale - no extra Lego out yet......but I'm going to check two others in a moment...reporting back later on tonight. Yeah, I feel the same way. I used to love K-Mart....
lightningtiger Posted June 17, 2011 Posted June 17, 2011 (edited) So which store is going to have the Imperial shuttle (10212), I rang Lego and they told me that it was going to be a BIG-W Exclusive. Can anyone confirm this?? All I was told is that Target is getting Star Wars exclusive sets.....which one I was not told of but a hint was given to the shuttle. But it could be a rues that is false information to though all of us off the scent. It also makes sense that BigW might get it, as they too score SW sets as exclusives for a short time.....but almost all 2nd half sets are already in the stores......so who knows.....we have to wait until the 23rd for the preview catalogues appear on their respected websites.

But thanks for the final plug in the quotes though! The Harry Potter information however was an answer to a question about when they were coming out, it wasn't intended as a "we will be stocking it..." post.

The Harry Potter information however was an answer to a question about when they were coming out, it wasn't intended as a "we will be stocking it..." post. My pleasure. Sorry for mis-interpreting your Harry Potter post though; I had a quick look at your site, noticed you had a slight sale on old HP sets (another free plug!) and got the wrong idea. Do note you're not banned from this topic; just don't be using it to promote your shop in any way. BTW, thanks for not getting grumpy over this.
cratra Posted June 17, 2011 Posted June 17, 2011 (edited) Just bought Hogwarts, Knight bus and 2 forbidden forests for $Au136 (with $US42 postage included) delivered from the US. I saw the prices on the Lego site $Au206 so this is far cheaper than what I would get with 20% off from, KMart/Target etc. I wish Lego would get there act together in Australia. The prices are just to expensive for kids let alone AFOL. Anyway can't wait to put these to our HP displays. Edited June 17, 2011 by cratra
