Brickdoctor Posted December 22, 2010 Posted December 22, 2010 Per FBTB, Toys R Us in the US is having a bogo sale on all Lego sets today with the exception of the Pharaoh's Quest sets. Link to the ad. http://view.ed4.net/v/KK573F/SDJ0G/9766B69/DXQCWV/MAILACTION=1&FORMAT=H?csm=175384530&csc=1256301&csa=172756598&csu=1256384&camp=CME:20101220_Em_TRU_Roto_2DaySale Could be a great way to get some of the new sets, if you are lucky enough to have them in your local TRU. Unfortunately, that's only worth it if there are two sets you want. But thanks, I missed that going through FBTB yesterday. Quote
djmangunz Posted December 22, 2010 Posted December 22, 2010 Yes, I assumed that math was implied. Hence the buy one get one half off. Quote
Brickdoctor Posted December 22, 2010 Posted December 22, 2010 (edited) Yes, I assumed that math was implied. Hence the buy one get one half off. I was more of referring to the fact that there isn't another set I want. Does anyone know if the 2011 sets on S@H are available for one of the European or Asian countries? EDIT: 10215 is now at 30% off, down to $70. Those must really not be selling well. Edited December 22, 2010 by Brickdoctor Quote
Penitent Tangent Posted December 23, 2010 Posted December 23, 2010 I'm glad to see the Starfighter's been knocked down a bit and that it's clearly been selling poorly. It's an OK set, I'd probably get it now if the January sets were up for order at the same time.. But hopefully they'll judge the value of sets like that a bit better in the future. Quote

I'm actually hoping it still doesn't sell well. We've seen it drop to 25% and now 30%- if it goes down to 50% like the Twilight did or even 40%, it'll get under the 10:1 ratio and be a good value.

Ritz Brick Posted December 23, 2010 Posted December 23, 2010 So I just noticed that the T-6 and Bounty Hunter Gunship both have only 389 pieces and the T-6 is $15 more... and for 17 pieces less you can get the Pirate Tank for $30 less. That seem likea huge rip-off to the Canadian buyers. Quote
Destroydacre Posted December 24, 2010 Posted December 24, 2010 I found all the new Star Wars sets except for the exclusives and the Jedi Shuttle at a Fred Meyer today. This is the second year in a row this store has had the January releases the week before Christmas, which is pretty cool. Looks like the new sets are starting to show up. Quote
Ritz Brick Posted December 24, 2010 Posted December 24, 2010 The guy at the Lego Store here in Calgary said they MIGHT be getting the new sets in tomorrow, but he's not making any promises. They have all been ordered and he said that goes for all Lego Stores Canada wide. My TRU said they already sold out of them. Quote

I suppose they might, given that the sets are already on S@H. Quote

They'll call me tomorrow, I'm friends with the manager there now :D They already put out and sold out of the Ninjago stuff, so Star Wars is all they havent put out yet. It better be.... Quote

Ogre Posted December 24, 2010 Posted December 24, 2010 (edited) Ummm... the Lego store in Calgary is the only one in all of Canada . True. For now. Sherway Gardens location should be open in the Spring though, so maybe that means the stock has been ordered for that location too? (totally speculating, of course) Edited December 24, 2010 by Ogre Quote
Ritz Brick Posted December 24, 2010 Posted December 24, 2010 Ummm... the Lego store in Calgary is the only one in all of Canada . hmm, didn't really think of that. They're going on the shelves at 4:00pm Mountain Time today for anyone else who lives there. Quote
Brickdoctor Posted December 24, 2010 Posted December 24, 2010 hmm, didn't really think of that. They're going on the shelves at 4:00pm Mountain Time today for anyone else who lives there. Interesting. I wonder if S@H will allow them to be bought at that time. Quote
Ceroknight Posted December 25, 2010 Posted December 25, 2010 (edited) MASSIVE 50% sale on 2009 and older SW sets at S@H unfortunately the only ones left is the TIE defender, Home One, Count Dooku's Sailer and midi scale Star destroyer This ruined my christmas Edited December 25, 2010 by ceroknight Quote
prateek Posted December 25, 2010 Posted December 25, 2010 It looks like the UCS Obi-Wan's JSF is on sale. $97.49 CAD and $74.98 USD. At first, this sale was just for UK, but now it's worldwide Quote

Brickdoctor Posted December 25, 2010 Posted December 25, 2010 As mentioned in the Buy/Sell/Trade/Finds forum, S@H is having a huge sale, including 50% off most sets. Most of the SW is already sold out, save for the Home One and Midi-ISD at 50% off, the UCS JSF at 25% off, and the Solar Sailor at 50% off but backordered. Quote
Penitent Tangent Posted December 25, 2010 Posted December 25, 2010 Once again (at least in the UK site) most of the sets that were discounted were already out of stock BEFORE they went on sale, can't say I'm impressed with that. Did manage to get the Palpatine magnet set and mid scale Star Destroyer for half-price though, so I'm happy with that. Quote
KimT Posted December 25, 2010 Posted December 25, 2010 7868 and 7869 are both available in the CPH LEGOStore. I'll be heading back to Copenhagen in a few days and I do plan to pick these up. If I get them before everybody else, I'll do reviews. Happy New Year and a Merry X-Mas. Quote
BrickBob Studpants Posted December 25, 2010 Posted December 25, 2010 (edited) The sets are now available on s@h, including Mace Windus JSF (at least in Europe) ;) Edited December 25, 2010 by Lego-Freak Quote
Brickdoctor Posted December 25, 2010 Posted December 25, 2010 The sets are now available on s@h, including Mace Windus JSF (at least in Europe) ;) The members of the normal wave were up a few days ago, but the JSF is new. So much for Spring release. Quote
TheBrickHitHouse Posted December 25, 2010 Posted December 25, 2010 Couldn't find mace's fighter on the UK site, rats! Quote
Masked Builder Posted December 26, 2010 Posted December 26, 2010 Has anybody actually found the new Star Wars sets in Lego stores? (in the US) I'm hoping to pick up a few of them. Quote
