TeufelHund Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 I'm curious as to what our value will be, because it said "Star Wars purchases" and although I could easily find $150 of Lego for the free delivery, $100 of full price SW Lego could be a stretch. I got the SW bonus stuff in the May 4 sale the last two years without spending anything on SW Lego - just put what you want in your cart and see if it adds the bonus stuff is my advice.
TheDarkness Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 May 4 is always different. No extra goodies for us Aussies with recent promotions. The mini VW looks awesome but I'm not paying full price on any Star Wars sets just to get the blue clone
Darth Malgus Posted August 6, 2013 Posted August 6, 2013 I got the splinter key ring and some other thing the time prior. If it's available when you go in to the S@H on the au site then you should get it. HOpefully they do and I will get the 2 exclusives from the SW section if it happens.

I'll try that anyway, it worked once when it wasn't supposed to. One of the times they offered a TC-14 I think. But I'm pretty sure May the 4th promos are usually independent of theme.

jtr Posted August 6, 2013 Posted August 6, 2013 (edited) Is there anyone who placed an order on the first for 41999, and still, have not yet received shipping confirmation? Mine still "in process" - I'm checking 4+ times a day. please ship already ! My order just got shipped at 16:30 . . . . woohoo Edited August 6, 2013 by jtr

Jor-El polybag? Sorry, let me clarify. We do get the bonus giveaways, but we generally don't get the secondary ones (such as the Friends Ice Cream Cart) unless we meet those specific criteria, such as spending x amount on Friends sets. The May the 4th promo is generally different, you score the minifig/posters/polybags with just about every order (Americans actually were getting a bonus Chima speedorz set as well as a giveaway which wasn't listed) This September one, on top of the VW has the blue SW Clone if you spend whatever the amount is on SW Lego. It is unlikely we will get that Clone thrown in just for the sake of it (though of course there have been exceptions, see Splinter keychain). That being said, if they choose to give me a blue clone for free I will not complain :D Also, my Technic Crawler shipped. Very happy :D Edited August 6, 2013 by TheDarkness
Brickus Posted August 6, 2013 Posted August 6, 2013 My 41999 just shipped, also any sightings of the new SW planets out in the wild.
Artanis I Posted August 6, 2013 Posted August 6, 2013 ... My 41999 just shipped, also any sightings of the new SW planets out in the wild. So far not everything, I don't remember where else & what, but definitely a few Myers have some of the sets: Rep. Gunship, Geonosis Duel, Barge, Spider Droid set with Stass Allie. No Jek Starfighter, Darth Maul Mandalorian, Tank Droid with Jango Fett, or AT-TE yet. (As for the planets, they only just came up on S@H so my guess is that they won't be out until next month?)
SandMirror38 Posted August 6, 2013 Posted August 6, 2013 Is shop@home the only place I can buy the delorean in AUS??? I really need to know btw is Black gate worth getting for shop@home price? $99 then I get free shipping
jonwil Posted August 6, 2013 Posted August 6, 2013 I have definatly seen the black Star Wars ship at retail (the one that looks a bit like an x-wing or z95 but with different wings) If I spot any of the others anywhere in my travels tomorrow I will be sure to tell people where :)
Phamish Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 Does anyone know if the 75025 Jedi Defender is available from retail in Australia? It's finally become available for shipping to Australia via S@H, and I'm tempted to order in next month with the mini VW promo set giveaway, but was wondering if anyone's spotted it anywhere. I popped into Target and TRU recently at Bondi Junction and Chatswood but neither had it.

For free S@H delivery you must spend $150. Does anyone know if the 75025 Jedi Defender is available from retail in Australia?

I popped into Target and TRU recently at Bondi Junction and Chatswood but neither had it. It will eventually turn up somewhere, most likely not until next month at the earliest. It was reported recently that TRU will have it. If so, you may as well get it full price from S@H with free delivery, bonus giveaways & VIP points (that translate to a 5% discount). (Of course you need to buy something additional that costs $10.01 or more) Edited August 7, 2013 by Artanis I
Kye33 Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 Is anyone after the Clark Kent minifig? Bigw have them when you buy the DVD! It's $15! Also has anyone seen the movie? Is it ok for the ages 4, 6 and 7? Didn't buy one in case it was more suitable for teenagers! Thanks

Is it ok for the ages 4, 6 and 7? Didn't buy one in case it was more suitable for teenagers! Thanks The movie is definitely more aimed at younger children, not so much teenagers or adults, I only got it cause of the fig.
Kye33 Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 The movie is definitely more aimed at younger children, not so much teenagers or adults, I only got it cause of the fig. Thanks so much! I'll pick one up! It's kind of funny that my kids love the lego movies, but not the lego of the movies! They have ninjago movies, but aren't really into ninjago lego! They wanted the batman movie but aren't into the super hero lego! I thought my 2 boys would of loved the super hero sets, but they are more into creator and city!
lightningtiger Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 TRU as of today till the 20th are having a truck toy sale......so Lego City great vehicles are only 19.99 and the latest three trucks are going for 34.99 each.....oh, well better than nothing right !

I have the BD version but want the DVD version for the kids room.
Darth Malgus Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 I did get the Jor El minifig on one of my last orders too.
Whup Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 (edited) I've got no idea whether it applies at all Myer stores, but Myer Noarlunga (SA) had $10 off for every $50 you spend until the 11th of August. It definitely applied to Lego, but it may have applied to all toys - I can't remember sorry. Edited August 7, 2013 by Whup
Fenaughty Posted August 8, 2013 Posted August 8, 2013 I spotted the City Starter Pack and the Stunt Plane today in DJ's Sydney, haven't seen them anywhere else

I have the BD version but want the DVD version for the kids room. Sorry for the late reply, they are at BigW capalaba! There was about 15 there! Mr Toys carindale had all the new lego sets and also a easy build set that was like mini monster trucks!
TanTile Posted August 8, 2013 Posted August 8, 2013 I spotted the City Starter Pack and the Stunt Plane today in DJ's Sydney, haven't seen them anywhere else The City Starter Pack I have seen in Target only so far and the Stunt Plane I have only seen in TRU and Toyworld but both are available at Shopforme. Sorry for the late reply, they are at BigW capalaba! There was about 15 there! Ahh doh! I'm in Melbourne... Thanks for replying I will keep looking...

Update. No special SW prices for the Tiger's birthday unfortunately, although so far the only regular sets I haven't seen at Target are the Republic Gunship & AT-TE (only set I haven't seen anywhere yet). So 3 of the 4 I've not seen in Myer yet are in Target.

So 3 of the 4 I've not seen in Myer yet are in Target. Sadly I'm not into SW much any more. But I have some bad news, I was told this morning by staff at Myers TTP that they were robbed the other day.....people ripping stickers off and passing boxes under the security scanners. So now at TTP all Lego sets over 100 bucks have those security wire alarms strapped to each box. I'm not sure what sets were stolen, but it was over a thousand dollars worth.
