v.squared Posted February 17, 2012 Posted February 17, 2012 Myer Adelaide had one Imperial Flagship, I'm not sure if they're giving an extra 10% off on top of the 20% off Lego, but it looks like production of the Flagship has ceased and prices are going up quickly. Thank you so much. I went to my local Myer store yesterday and they did a computer search and there were no IF listed at any stores anywhere in the country. I just called Myer Adelaide and purchased it over the phone for 30% off, so it came to $210 with postage. I also purchased the Black Pearl from Barnes and Noble today, so my fleet is complete. Thank you very much

shnake Posted February 17, 2012 Posted February 17, 2012 20% is of all Lego at Myer, but the extra 10% is on the selected items. Many of the board games are marked down on clearance and the 20% off should apply too. K Mart has Alien Conquest sets marked down, not sure what the original prices were to say how much by, but the HQ set is now $100. I got the extra 10% Myer One discount on non-catalog items today at Warringah Mall. It may be dependent on what staff member you get at the counter.
WetWired Posted February 17, 2012 Posted February 17, 2012 Is there a trade thread for aussies? or is it confined to here?
dyntar Posted February 17, 2012 Posted February 17, 2012 (edited) I don't know if anyone is interested... but Toyworld at Watergardens Vic........ is having 40% off Pharaohs Quest sets... strange seeing how they only got them in a month ago. Edited February 17, 2012 by dyntar
Notorious Guf Posted February 18, 2012 Posted February 18, 2012 Town Hall 10224 is on Shop @ Home as "Coming Soon" - but the reason for me saying so is that it is only $249, so it would appear as though we have reasonable pricing. If it becomes available at 20% off in a store, we'll be able to buy it for the same price as USA RRP!
KartoffelViking Posted February 18, 2012 Posted February 18, 2012 (edited) Target TTP (Adelaide) has the new Star Wars: The Battle of Hoth board game. It's $50, though. Edited February 18, 2012 by KartoffelViking
Xyver Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 Just picked up the Alien Conquest 7066 - Earth Defense HQ for 99 at KMart Capalaba, they still have 2 left. Don't really want it for the vehicle, but for the parts and the aliens! I also noticed they had a clearence on 3367 -Space Shuttle. It was a great deal too $50 (that's 1c ABOVE RRP). I do want one, but will wait until the price is actually reduced.
Brickmamba Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 A question - does anybody know who will be selling the Super Heroes Funhouse Escape set? I know shopforme had it for like a day but even with 10% off I couldn't bring myself to pay that ridiculous price ($80) for a 320 piece set - so I'm hoping one of the majors will have it and I can at least get a 20% sale... Has anyone on here been able to source it at a decent price? Thought this would be a TRU exclusive but was there today they had DC sets stocked but no funhouse...
Delta 38 Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 Hmm, do Myer One members normally get a 10% discount? I bought something today, but only when I got home did I notice there was no added discount or anything. Maybe I should ask next time. It's possible the cashier simply forgot.

DrWeevil Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 On the Myer front, just a heads up: they charge over rrp on certain sets, including all Super Heroes and also certain Star Wars sets. The superheroes sets were by around 10-12%. I was all ready to get a bunch at their 20+10% sale this past weekend but when checking on the prices on the phone Before I went in I was shocked when I heard what they were charging. The discount came to just a smidge (like a few cents) over 20% off rrp - ie what you can get at Target or plenty of online places. Shame on them! If small businesses can sell at 20% off retail but they, as a publicly listed giant will not, then I certainly know where my money *won't* be going! So greedy!
lightningtiger Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 Perhaps Myer realise that Super Heroes might be a big seller and they will make a better profit margin for the shareholders to cash in on ! Welcome the new TRU eh ?
Delta 38 Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 The 10% off finished on Sunday. Argh, just as I found my old card! Oh well. And yeah, the prices at Myer do seem pretty inflated for Superheroes. The Catwoman set was almost $30? What?
Brickmamba Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 That's right I checked prices at TRU first and found Myer RRP was more for DC and SW, what a pity, they have the best sales but it's deceiving if they are charging over RRP
Artanis I Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 On the plus side, Myer did have a lot of markdowns of older sets on clearance, with an additional 30% off that. And the nice girl spent 5 minutes working out a way to also give me another 10% off. Ended up with $250 RRP of Lego for $100. All is not yet lost!
jonwil Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 David Jones Perth CBD has one pet shop on the shelf if anyone is looking for it. Also 5 Fire brigades
Treadwah Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 David Jones Perth CBD has one pet shop on the shelf if anyone is looking for it. They have finally listed it on their online store; $269.95 + postage.
KartoffelViking Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 Friends spotted (by a friend, coincidently) at Myer TTP (Adelaide). They also have 20% off LEGO.
jonwil Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 No friends spotted in Perth CBD yet. Is MYER selling the Friends product at RRP or are they charging more?
Appswasere Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 Just wondering has anyone seen the republic frigate from last year for sale still. I have seen some mf's and darth mauls ship but for some reason no frigate.
Whup Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 Just wondering has anyone seen the republic frigate from last year for sale still. I have seen some mf's and darth mauls ship but for some reason no frigate. From memory the local Toyworld (Morphett Vale, South Australia) had a few. I could be wrong though, and it's been a while since I was there. It might be worth a phone call though...

Cheers, I'm in brisbane but I just wasn't sure if they were still available at stores so it's good to know they are out there as they seemed to dissapear as sonn as the 2012 sets came out. Just have to keep searching I guess
Hemish Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 Alien Conquest mothership for $57.59 from www.ozgameshop.com They also do free delivery and have a few other various lego sets Mine got to me in a couple of days after postage notification, though for those wanting perfect boxes you aren't going to get it here
JasonV Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 Has anyone noticed any Kingdom sets for sale in Perth? Toyworld still seems to have them, but Kmart, Big W, Target etc seems to have gotten rid of all their stock
