Beej Posted August 23, 2009 Posted August 23, 2009 For this weekend, Myer has a "buy 2 toys, get 1 free" I just wanted to say thanks for the heads-up, I finally managed to get a Family Home at a decent price!
DarthSion Posted August 23, 2009 Posted August 23, 2009 I know it's not the same set but Jesus Christ... UCS Falcon for '$1,149.95' and Endor for $250.Times like this make me feel lucky to have grabbed my Falcon at that Kmart sale. Yeah i know, it used to be 999, but they put it up right after the GFC, but still some of the other prices are pretty good.
DB24 Posted August 24, 2009 Posted August 24, 2009 The Target in Chadstone has just got Sp and new indy
Whittleberry Posted August 24, 2009 Posted August 24, 2009 Myer in Melbourne CBD has new SW and Creator but no new Indy. The Venator is there too. (I wasn't sure if that's meant to be an uncommon set?)
YG-49 Posted August 24, 2009 Posted August 24, 2009 My Myer and Kmart don't have ANYTHING! I looked for an AiC, (Ambush in Cairo) I even got someone to go out the back! And what's more ironic is I have a friend that got a new Indy set. (Not sure from the same Kmart) But that was Chauchilla, not AiC. They told me they would get more in the next few days. I called Myer (didn't actually go in) about a Robo Attack but they didn't have that either.
DB24 Posted August 24, 2009 Posted August 24, 2009 That sucks man! Its great to pick up all the new indy sets with a % off. both targets near me and my kmart have em
Hewman Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 My apologies if this has already been mentioned. The limited edition Squidman's Pitstop is available at Toys R Us (Adelaide store at least) and for once they're just charging RRP. They also had a couple new Agents sets, including the helicopter and Robo Attack which I think were both at RRP as well.
sammyboy Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 Hey all, Picked up the Agents 2.0 sets from KMart at 15% which was a winner. Wondering has anyone seen the following: - Space Police: - 8399, 8400, 5979, or 5980 Pirates: - 6253 Spoke to TLC regarding Emerald Night and was advised that it is out now at Myer, however when I spoke to Myer Customer Service they told me it wouldnt be here till before the end of the year. Weird.
jonwil Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 With regards to the Space Police III impulses, 8399 and 8400, here is the story from my experience: A local AFOL did pick up both sets during the Big W sale from a Big W (one copy of each). Calls by myself to every Big W I can get to (this was back when Big W were the only one with Space Police) ended up with some stores (including the one they were purchased from) saying they had no stock, others claimed to have no knowledge of the sets and some even thought I was asking about the larger Squidman Escape set. I have not seen either set myself in any retail store (if I had, I would have bought them on the spot) The latest installment comes from todays trip to the Toyworld in Fremantle who had a bunch of new stock including IIRC, some new Indy and City Corner. They also had some Space Police. When I asked the person working there about the impulse sets (showing her the catalog), she first said "none of those sets are out until September according to this catalog", then when I showed here the larger sets on the shelf, said that no, she didnt know anything about the impulse sets. She even checked their price list which had no mention of either 8399 or 8400. So as of now there HAS been at least one sighting of both sets but nothing since then. These 2 sets (and the Agents 2.0 robot) are the last items on my wishlist until the xmas sets like the advent calender and xmas house appear.
Svelte Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 Bricks to the World is selling Chrome Stromtroopers for $AUD16.95 for those that don't wish to go through S@H.
Patty Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 I can't believe I missed out on that Buy 2 Get 1 free sale! Where was it advertised?!
TheDarkness Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 I don't know if it is Australia wide, but my local Toyworld is having a 15% off everything sale. Really tempted to pick up another Endor set at $170
Svelte Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 Lego S@H now has the chrome 4x4 magnets, Pirates Battle Pack and Minifig Collection 4 available. I really REALLY hope that they launch 10197 Fire Brigade and 10198 Tantive IV simultaneously instead of making us wait or pay double in shipping I'm not holding my breath, though. 10198 has appeared on BL along with 10197 from a reputable seller so it's clear that the sets are out of the factory.
DarthSion Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 4x4 magnets, where i didn't see that?. Hasn't this thread gone dead.
Strand Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 I can't believe I missed out on that Buy 2 Get 1 free sale!Where was it advertised?! It was in that Saturday's Herald. It's one of those unadvertised sales they sometimes do on the day.
Siegfried Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 I don't know if it is Australia wide, but my local Toyworld is having a 15% off everything sale. Really tempted to pick up another Endor set at $170 My local Toyworld had sold out on the Endor sets when I went there last week. I'll have to try to drop in again next week. Any idea of how long it's supposed to be for? Hasn't this thread gone dead. Well it is about sales. No sales, no talk!
DarthSion Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 Did anyone else send in during the bigw sale for the free lego club?, have you heard anything back yet?.
I Scream Clone Posted September 3, 2009 Posted September 3, 2009 My local Kmart had varying sales on Lego. Weird not to see a 15% off across the board Dropship was down to $299 Sep Shuttle $45 Hoth $33 Snail droid 32 Shuttle with Mace 79 Venator 168 BPs 16 etc Power miners on sale. Creator House down to 95 (25% off) Yellow Creator truck 95 as well Racers on sale too Not on sale, Indy, Castle, SP3, Bionicle and other Creator stuff. It was hard to not fill the trolley up with goodies
DarthSion Posted September 3, 2009 Posted September 3, 2009 Its all of them not just your local, it was in a leaflet i just saw, but it said the AT-OT was 299 save 50, i thought after the toy sale it went to 450?.
Whittleberry Posted September 3, 2009 Posted September 3, 2009 Myer in Melbourne CBD has everything. SP3, new Indy, new City, new SW, new creator, NXT 2.0, new Castle The following sets are now 30% off - City crawler crane, bulldozer and freight plane. I can't wait for a sale to happen there, I'd be in there straightaway. I can't imagine we'll see anything for a while though.

bright22 Posted September 3, 2009 Posted September 3, 2009 Did anyone else send in during the bigw sale for the free lego club?, have you heard anything back yet?. No... nothing.... I am still waiting for our free club magazine
Strand Posted September 3, 2009 Posted September 3, 2009 Did anyone else send in during the bigw sale for the free lego club?, have you heard anything back yet?. Yes and no. Still haven't received the Lego magazine at my parents' address yet (under dog's name), though I still haven't received my regular one either (it's a quarterly though, so give it a while)
DarthSion Posted September 3, 2009 Posted September 3, 2009 Yeah i wasn't expecting the mag yet, just some sort of confirmation they got it.
Svelte Posted September 3, 2009 Posted September 3, 2009 Tantive IV now available from S@H: http://shop.lego.com/product/?p=10198&...7&ShipTo=AU
