Slobey Posted February 2, 2013 Posted February 2, 2013 My second Mighty Ape order came today. Three sets all in good order with no damage. I'll buy from there again...... I guess it's a case of third time unlucky. After two deliveries in sturdy cardboard my Barrel Escape set arrived from Mightyape.com today wrapped in brown paper and mashed IMG_0568 by slobey79, on Flickr I don't think this is acceptable from a reasonably large online business. I've emailed their customer department so we'll see what comes of it.......
Aussie BJ Posted February 3, 2013 Posted February 3, 2013 Just out of curiosity, should my Lego Club Magazine have come by now? I got a postcard from them in December saying they would come in January but it is February now. Got the same postcard howie and my kids were both very disappointing. Now they are really making us mad it's February and still no sign of the Magazine. Anyone know why they changed the dates?

Got the mag last week , but then on the new month of release I guess Lego doesn't like giving a freebie polybag for Christmas any more ! Now from the 6th of this month TRU - selected Chima, Ninjago and City Great Vehicles ranges reduced.....as much as 5 bucks on some items....oh, yeah 3 series 9 minifigs for 12 bucks too !

When does the sale start? I'm overseas and tried to order SW Stuff online but the discount isn't showing up...
Slobey Posted February 4, 2013 Posted February 4, 2013 When does the sale start? I'm overseas and tried to order SW Stuff online but the discount isn't showing up... It starts thursday 7th....
Darth Malgus Posted February 4, 2013 Posted February 4, 2013 A good idea as I have a gift voucher I got for Xmas that will work at Target...but has anyone actually seen the new Star Wars sets there yet? They had 4 of the sets in last Thursday, being the AT-RT, A-Wing, Z-95 and the Rancor Pit, no battle packs or planet sets.
distortme Posted February 4, 2013 Posted February 4, 2013 Adelaide CBD has now got basically everything if you visit all the stores :) Though Kmart was only one to have the Clone battle pack. And if Target are going on sale, I bet Myer will follow with at least a day of 20% off this weekend - though I'm sure they'll price match if they dont and you show the catalogue. So should be all ripe for the picking :)
howie28 Posted February 4, 2013 Posted February 4, 2013 (edited) I really need my Hero Factory sets!! March is too long to wait especially considering the US got them in December, and I don't want to order them online!! Edited February 4, 2013 by howie28
Artanis I Posted February 4, 2013 Posted February 4, 2013 I haven't seen the SW sets BARC Speeder w Sidecar or Mobile Heavy Cannon anywhere, must I assume that these are supposed to be Exclusive-To-Places-I-Can't-Get-To?
jonwil Posted February 4, 2013 Posted February 4, 2013 I suspect at least one of those 2 is a Toys R Us exclusive.

frumpy Posted February 4, 2013 Posted February 4, 2013 Damn. Target sale doesn't include superhero sets. Maybe I'll just pick up the A-Wing.
lightningtiger Posted February 4, 2013 Posted February 4, 2013 Now Kmart have the Rancor Pit for 99, Target 89 then subtract 20%.....$ 71.20.....tiger likes the price.
Brickmamba Posted February 4, 2013 Posted February 4, 2013 Now Kmart have the Rancor Pit for 99, Target 89 then subtract 20%.....$ 71.20.....tiger likes the price. Still a bit to swallow for 1 exclusive mid size figure
jonwil Posted February 4, 2013 Posted February 4, 2013 Its actually not that bad on value compared to the US (only a 50% markup vs the US compared to the 100% or more markup we have seen on other sets like the Hulk Hellicarrier set) Then again, maybe its crappy value in the US to begin with...
Brickus Posted February 4, 2013 Posted February 4, 2013 Where are you getting information on the Target sale I looked through next weeks catalogue and couldn't find anything, is it a daily deal of some sort?
Alien24 Posted February 4, 2013 Posted February 4, 2013 Where are you getting information on the Target sale I looked through next weeks catalogue and couldn't find anything, is it a daily deal of some sort? Its on the top of page 10 of the catalogue... http://target.dynamiccatalogue.com.au/catalogue/target-catalogue-add-colour-for-fun/4tfitvmzm.html?pid=promotedCatalogue
Santaduckz Posted February 5, 2013 Posted February 5, 2013 Still no sign of the rest of the super heroes sets in the Sydney area. Anyone have any idea when they might start popping up?
Brickus Posted February 5, 2013 Posted February 5, 2013 I'll hazard a guess that they will start appearing this week, possibly Thursday or Friday. Also according to the Mr Toys Toyworld website they should appear at their stores on the 10th.
jonwil Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 Has anyone seen the new fire helicopter in a retail store yet?
