harmacy Posted October 30, 2010 Posted October 30, 2010 (edited) Was browsing through the Warehouse website and noticed that they have the 10187 VW Beetle for the online only price $149.99. Considering this is a $220 retail set, and is hard to find, this is a pretty good deal:) Offer ends 2/11. LINK Edited October 30, 2010 by harmacy
epic_red Posted October 30, 2010 Posted October 30, 2010 Just went to Farmers at the Hub Hornby and saw the Winter Toy Shop (10199) for $120. They also had 7x Dwarf mine defenders and 2x Indy Temple Escape set (7199) for $200.

MagPiesRUs Posted October 30, 2010 Posted October 30, 2010 All prince of Persia sets about 60% off in Toyworld 7573 $79 7571 $29 7570 $19 I've been waiting for this. Do you know if this is for a certain period of time, or just until they get rid of the stock?
Dragonator Posted October 30, 2010 Posted October 30, 2010 All prince of Persia sets about 60% off in Toyworld I just made a large order for more PoP sets, as if I don't have enough of them already! I've been waiting for this. Do you know if this is for a certain period of time, or just until they get rid of the stock? From what I understand they got all the excess stock left in the country and are just trying to get rid of it now, but don't quote me on that.
RileyC Posted October 31, 2010 Posted October 31, 2010 Wow those are some good prices! I wasnt exactly into the PoP sets but those prices may just change my mind
Toye Posted October 31, 2010 Posted October 31, 2010 (edited) I may have just went to toyworld and bought every single PoP set Edited October 31, 2010 by Toye
Legoman Posted October 31, 2010 Author Posted October 31, 2010 Wow far out! I'll be heading down there later, that's for sure! Thanks for the heads up!
Toye Posted October 31, 2010 Posted October 31, 2010 Wow far out! I'll be heading down there later, that's for sure! Thanks for the heads up! Get it before they run out - Looked like they didn't have a whole lot of stock, maybe 4 - 5 boxes of each set. (Henderson)
CommanderFox Posted October 31, 2010 Posted October 31, 2010 Sweet! Ostrich time Haha, yup! I'd go for them, but man I need to save for the HP sets and SW sets... Has Anyone got a second hand Cad Banes speeder or the 8088 ARC-170 or the 8098 CTT second hand for a tad cheaper? Im trying to save as much as I can... Thanks and PM me if you do have any of them! Any word of the HP sets in store's? Thanks CF
epic_red Posted November 1, 2010 Posted November 1, 2010 If you are interested in the PoP sets, but can't afford them, try Lay-by at TW. I used it for the City garage and it was great. No fees, just a 10% deposit and 90 day to pay it off. Pretty decent

Legoman Posted November 1, 2010 Author Posted November 1, 2010 (edited) Indeed, layby is the way to go with these sorts of quick impulse buys! Mmmm, nougat... Are all the Nougat bricks made in China by any chance? They just don't seem a full enough colouring to be danish. I went down this afternoon, and got 2 of each set. I'm not so much intrested in figures, so was quite dissapointed with the $12.50 set. But after parting out 1 of each of the sets, I think the deal simply comes down to the bigger the set, the better deal. I'll definately be going down again tomorrow. They bigger sets are absolutely great part packs. While we're on this note, does anyone here want extra POP figures or Ostriches? I love the parts, but selling off the figs would make the deal even sweeter Edited November 1, 2010 by Legoman
Dragonator Posted November 1, 2010 Posted November 1, 2010 Are all the Nougat bricks made in China by any chance? They just don't seem a full enough colouring to be danish. Nope, they're all made in the standard factory as far as I'm aware. It's just a different mix of plastic I presume, it is certainly a lovely and unique colour.

AoNZ Posted November 2, 2010 Posted November 2, 2010 Wow those PoP deals sound great but too bad I spent my Lego budget this month. Also on another note I found it interesting that on Trademe in the 'cool auctions' box on the home page that there was an auction for 20 Lego people highlighted in that section? No special Lego men or nothing for charity so I am a little confused??? Anyway can someone tell me if the new sets of Lego come out before or after Christmas because I will need to know when to save and what not? I can't remember when about they appear but it is close to that time right? Thanks.
Legoman Posted November 2, 2010 Author Posted November 2, 2010 We don't usually get sets very early here in NZ. most 2011 Waves will start to show up in stores mid Jan through to early april, depending on the theme If anyone is looking at getting some more POP sets, I'd hurry. The Big Castle (Battle of Almult?) thing has now sold out all around CHCH And the Cave type set is running out fast...
Toye Posted November 2, 2010 Posted November 2, 2010 The Warehouse is having a bit of a "special" I cleaned out West Auckland and only got 5 :( Also the 4 city minifigure set is $5
CommanderFox Posted November 3, 2010 Posted November 3, 2010 (edited) Alrighty, I guess it's just the colour. I keep thinking it's going to be the perfect colour for Geonosis Yes it would be a good Geonosis colour, you planning on making a Geo Dio Legoman?? The Warehouse is having a bit of a "special" *snip! I cleaned out West Auckland and only got 5 :( Also the 4 city minifigure set is $5 I might just have to get one of these! But dang it all, im not going anywhere near shops today. I so badly want some of them, chuck them on TM later and bingo get an extra $80 - $100 Lucky you Toye! Edit: Toyworld have their Christmas Catalog out, sorry if this has already been posted.

RileyC Posted November 3, 2010 Posted November 3, 2010 I saw that the warehouse has brickbeard's bounty (that small pirate ship?) for $30! It says they only have 1500 sets of it though so get in quick!

RileyC Posted November 3, 2010 Posted November 3, 2010 Bit late. I wouldn't call it a small ship, its a $170 RRP set. Woops sorry I clicked get new post and it took me to CFs comment just under yours. Well its big but there is that huge pirate ship thats $250. Its the smaller one of the two.

Its the smaller one of the two. The one for $30 is normally the biggest (until 2010) ship size available. The $300 imperial ship is a send-off gift from the lego team for the pirate theme (won't be produced anymore).
Legoman Posted November 3, 2010 Author Posted November 3, 2010 (edited) Brickbeards bounty for $30? My gosh! I must get down there ASAP!!! Edit: Went to my 3 closest Warehouses - all were sold out Ah well, you win some, you lose some Good luck to everyone else Edited November 3, 2010 by Legoman
