Darth_Legois Posted March 5, 2009 Author Posted March 5, 2009 Pirates are out! Well at least the impulses [i was right ] At toyworld $6 Ea. I got x1 Pirate Survival & x1 Soldiers Arsenal I love the new fish piece & That darkgreen-santa-hat-thingy-which-name-I-forgot. The Soldiers torso is great.
TheDarkness Posted March 5, 2009 Posted March 5, 2009 I'm so glad I could not make up my mind on what to order the other night. The Spider Droid is back at S@H, which will now put me closer to having my diorama pieces I need
Svelte Posted March 5, 2009 Posted March 5, 2009 7680 The Twilight is now half price at S@H. http://shop.lego.com/Product/?p=7680 It's not a bad set at all at that price and a good source of bley and dark bley plates.

TheDarkness Posted March 6, 2009 Posted March 6, 2009 Had to happen after I placed a ridiculously expensive order :( Might need to make another soon if it stays at that price! 7680 The Twilight is now half price at S@H.http://shop.lego.com/Product/?p=7680 It's not a bad set at all at that price and a good source of bley and dark bley plates.
Svelte Posted March 6, 2009 Posted March 6, 2009 Had to happen after I placed a ridiculously expensive order :(Might need to make another soon if it stays at that price! If it hasn't shipped yet, call Customer Service tonight after 6pm EST. They may be able to add or combine the order. (I do find it kind of hilarious that when you call the freecall number you get that cheesy very English recorded voice to guide you through the options but the call centre staff are invariably European, who often sound kind of shocked that Australians are sufficiently civilised to have such things as 'Leg-go' this far south of the equator.) I don't think the Twilight will hang around too long at that price as the ebay sellers will order it by the truckload for resale, just like General Grievous.
TheDarkness Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 Unfortunately when I rang, they said my order had already been processed and was about to ship )which I got the email for this morning) Don't know if I can be bothered now as I will need to make another order worth my while to justify the shipping costs If it hasn't shipped yet, call Customer Service tonight after 6pm EST. They may be able to add or combine the order.

natelite Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 anyone interested in the twilight i am taking orders now for A$105 (except for WA or NT, sorry - shipping is too expensive from NSW) shipped to your address. if you want any magnet set, i can add up to 3 sets to your shipment at cost. you will also pay that much if you buy from S@H but you'll get it in 3 weeks. you'll get it from me in a week. plus adding magnet sets to your S@H shipment will increase your shipping too. offer lasts until AEST 6am 8/3 (Sunday). i'll make an order then.
Svelte Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 7681 Separatist Spider Droid is back in stock at S@H.
I Scream Clone Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 7681 Separatist Spider Droid is back in stock at S@H. Sorry svelte, but only a silver star for this contribution! See this post from about 2 days before I'm so glad I could not make up my mind on what to order the other night. The Spider Droid is back at S@H, which will now put me closer to having my diorama pieces I need Does anyone know if the restock of Dwarven Mine and King's Castle Siege, may translate into them hitting Aussie shops? I personally doubt it, so may just have to buy them off S@H. Damn, I really much prefer no shipping and 20% off retail any day
Svelte Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 I personally doubt it, so may just have to buy them off S@H. Damn, I really much prefer no shipping and 20% off retail any day My bad with the HSD set I doubt King's Castle Siege will ever come back to stores here. It's interesting that they did another production run of it though for Europe since it was clearanced in the UK and many people seemed it hard to find. I'd say we're due for another heroes castle next year, so maybe it will remain current until then? TLG do seem to publicise this an awful lot, even 10193's instruction pages still have the 7094 silhouette as a watermark effect! It gets a lot of press for a set noone can find!
DarthSion Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 Do you guys have S@H as your homepage or something lol.

So funny yet true Well, I bought the stone chopper, I pretty descent set especially for $8 (I got it for 20% off ) And the rock monster is AWSOME smaller than I thought but still cool So for those who don't know there is 20% off at Target Also today I was kinda shocked, it was the fist time that some one asked me if the Lego I was buying was for me
Darth_Legois Posted March 9, 2009 Author Posted March 9, 2009 Also today I was kinda shocked, it was the fist time that some one asked me if the Lego I was buying was for me Happened to me acouple times but most of the time the checkout-chick doesn't care and looks like they just wanna go home lol But acouple times its happened like ay DJ's when I got my train station on sale [for like $40 something instead of $60 ] The lady goes "Oh this looks like fun" I was like "Yep" So she probable guessed it was for me. Other times I just said yes but once I was buying LEGO for my nephew [like duplo] and the lady gave me the wierdest look so I had to say "Its for my nephew" then she goes "ohh" and a sigh of relief. Anyway I should've gotten my Mine Mech at Target....Would've saved acouple $$ ohwell...

Anyway I should've gotten my Mine Mech at Target....Would've saved acouple $$ ohwell... l i also got some similar kind of experience, ha. when i buy 8014 clone war BP, at that time i received a 50% off on second item. the guy at cashier said" oh, that one is the most popular one, isnt it?" and he start to say the coming up calamari and endor sets r awesome. and he share his "lego experience" ..lol.. nice talk. first time hv someone talk to me like this ..i thought he is a lego SW fans. usually when i buy lego from TRU, sometimes i just feel awkward when i pay those ladies in there. :cry_sad:
Siegfried Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 Just to be a general bitch, do remember that this is about Australian sales. Please don't turn this into a conversation about LEGO buying in general...
TheDarkness Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 (edited) I work hard for my money, so I can spend it anyway I see fit. I'm not fussed if a checkout person raises an eyebrow. I bought 7 clone battlepacks the other day and didn't bat an eyelid at it Anyway, since I feel the need to place another order for a Twilight or 2, I'll be placing another order tonight for those interested EDIT: Looks like I won't be as it had disappeared from S@H, I waited too long as per usual Edited March 10, 2009 by TheDarkness

I've said that a couple of times but my favourite is "is this alright for a five yr old even though it says 6-12" Just to be a general female canine, do remember that this is about Australian sales. Please don't turn this into a conversation about LEGO buying in general... Yeppo...sorry Anyway I should've gotten my Mine Mech at Target....Would've saved acouple $$ ohwell... should've, I was tempted to get it but I wanted to save my money...for a change And there is 15% at K-mart by the way Also what themes are yet to be released in the next months?
DarthSion Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 Just curious, where do specialised sets go on sale here, i have heard a few SW sets will be exclusives, and am just wondering where gets the exclusives. I wonder if they will stick random chrome vader in our sets, not like it matters i have one.
TheDarkness Posted March 11, 2009 Posted March 11, 2009 DJs supposedly have a deal where if you buy a $200 gift card before Saturday, you get a bonus $20 one. Not bad for those holding off on any lego sales, or just want a small freebie
I Scream Clone Posted March 11, 2009 Posted March 11, 2009 Just curious, where do specialised sets go on sale here, i have heard a few SW sets will be exclusives, and am just wondering where gets the exclusives. Well, unless it is set as a TRU exclusive, it depends which shop chain wants to bid/stock for the set. 7979 was supposed to be an exclusive in US but its everywhere here. So time will tell.

I Scream Clone Posted March 11, 2009 Posted March 11, 2009 TRU?, 7979?. Ahhhh, 7679 is what I mean't. TRU= Toys R Us
DarthSion Posted March 11, 2009 Posted March 11, 2009 I see. Why do people just post numbers and think people will know what it is.
