Legoman Posted December 24, 2009 Author Posted December 24, 2009 (edited) If i get two (pretty sure I won't) you and 3D Brickthing can battle it out for the second one I get. CommanderFox Fight to the death!!! - Oh wait.... This ISN'T Sparta Na I'll be fine... Mine is lying around somewhere.... Edited December 24, 2009 by legoman
Callum Posted December 24, 2009 Posted December 24, 2009 (edited) Just to confirm the new sets will be out in Mid January. That being Toy Story, Atlantis and Ben 10. No mention of Star Wars but I would assume they are coming too. EDIT: Prince of Persia is coming out mid January also. Edited December 24, 2009 by Callum

CommanderFox Posted December 24, 2009 Posted December 24, 2009 Fight to the death!!! - Oh wait.... This ISN'T Sparta Na I'll be fine... Mine is lying around somewhere.... I thought of that when typing it! Okay. Good luck in finding it! Just to confirm the new sets will be out in Mid January. That being Toy Story, Atlantis and Ben 10. No mention of Star Wars but I would assume they are coming too. EDIT: Prince of Persia is coming out mid January also. Thanks for that Callum. Thats good at least we have a time frame now instead of looking every week like I seem to be doing Haha, just like my TM links. CommanderFox
Fumoffu Posted December 24, 2009 Posted December 24, 2009 Merry Christmas to all you Kiwi Lego fans. Hope we all pick up some Lego bargains at one of the Boxing Day sale!! I got all the sets I wanted this year but if I find some BP cheap then I can always do with a few more Clone Troopers.

I just need, Echo base, if I don't find it at the sales tomorrow, then Im getting This one. And Ras, Kmart had tons! Afew days ago, so Im hoping for a nice big discount off them as they where $120. Also, maybe, just maybe I might be able to find some 2010 SW sets! Edit: Just wanted to point out, This website, they might be selling some Lego soon, hopefully!

Lego is a brand that takes very careful control of it's Market, and I doubt TLG would allow Lego to be sold on a site like that at a good enough price that people would buy heaps.

AoNZ Posted December 26, 2009 Posted December 26, 2009 legoman is right. I went to K-Mart today hoping for a bargain but none were to be found along with 2010 sets but that I guess was as expected.

CommanderFox CommanderFox not sure if Toyworld Onehunga is too far for you but they are doing 30% off toys and there's about 5 Echo Base there this morning when I was there. Whoops! Please ignore my comment above. My wife just told me that the sale was today only. Sorry. Edited December 26, 2009 by Fumoffu
Legoman Posted December 26, 2009 Author Posted December 26, 2009 Well I'm about to head out again. But I did pick up 10193 MMV today for $160. Im very pleased!
Kiwi FireFighter Posted December 26, 2009 Posted December 26, 2009 im not a fan of star wars unfortunately, but the 2 toyworlds i visited today trying to find the creator fire engine, both seemed to have lots of star wars models in stock

Yes, Kmart where completly sold out of almost all their lego! And I got there at 9:00! Btw though, they had about 7 freeze ray frenzys, if anyone wants them, this is Albany kmart btw. CommanderFox not sure if Toyworld Onehunga is too far for you but they are doing 30% off toys and there's about 5 Echo Base there this morning when I was there. Thanks, but I thankfully got one at Farmers....for 30% off!!!! Hehe, in other words, $35! What a Beut of a set! Sadly didn't find a RAS, so if anyone has one that they would like to sell, PM me Please! Im looking for under $110. Thanks! CommanderFox Edited December 26, 2009 by CommanderFox

CommanderFox Sorry CF im quite attached to mine cause its such a great set. I got a pressie card for christmas so that will go toward lego which I am most happy about cause I am pretty short of money this year. That is if I dont get a job
Grrr Posted December 26, 2009 Posted December 26, 2009 Just wanted to point out, This website, they might be selling some Lego soon, hopefully!CommanderFox Do you have a reliable source for this? I'd be highly surprised if Lego itself where to sell to them. Unless they have parallel imported from another country. Also, NZ stocks haven't been that great, so they wouldn't need to sell to these sorts of operators.

One of my dads friends owns that company, and Ive been trying to get him to sell Lego for ages now, so I just thought he might sell it around this time period. There have been quite afew toys on latly, so I thought maybe Lego will be on as well. Anyways, going off topic here. CommanderFox

Like you said earlier there may be an importer or retailer that ended up with a large quantity of an unpopular Lego line (midi scale Falcon? Some racer?) that they want to flick off quick and that site is one way to do it.

ColdBricks Posted December 28, 2009 Posted December 28, 2009 Hi, January is approaching and we all know what that means. S@H sale time. I thought this would be a good time to get ourselves organised and get a bulk order sorted. I'm prepared to out the order through in my name and then distribute throughout NZ for everybody. I think splitting the S@H shipping cost evenly between everyone who puts an order in would be the easiest way to operate. Once the Lego arrives at my place - In Christchurch, I'm quite happy for local pickups. For anyone else outside of Chch, I can send your packages around NZ via Courier Post, no matter what size or weight for FREE, that's right for FREE. So all that you'll have to worry about is the S@H shipping cost that's split between everyone that makes an order. Just in case you haven't bought anything from S@H lately, shipping costs for an order over $250 are $80 for Standard 18 Day shipping or $120 for Express 8 Day Shipping. I don't mind either way but I'm happy with the Standard shipping time. So PM me and we'll sort it out via our own email before the sale starts. Cheers!

Although, I think I'll have to wait to see whats on sale and at what prices before I order. May I Invite Invite others to join in our order? (Fellow CHCH Lego nuts) Just thinking also.... There are quite a few Lego fans in CHCH. Anyone intrested in prehaps starting a LUG or something?

Just had a look at what's on sale ... not much Star Wars stuff other than the V-19 and keyrings butI'll like to get the Peril in Peru set since I missed out on it. The advent calendars should be good too. I'm not sure why stuff that's sold out is being listed. I have a question on how the shipping is shared. Is it evenly per buyer, by value or by item purchased? I don't know how you do it but free shipping within NZ is really good for an Aucklander like me. I'll have a better look at what else is on sale (there's more than 100 items) and will PM you a list.

Hi Does it matter if we want a big order for you posting it to us.(Palmerston North) I really need to get some more Chrome Stromtroopers, advent calanders and maybe some more of the set that will be on special. Edited December 28, 2009 by Ravi
CommanderFox Posted December 28, 2009 Posted December 28, 2009 Sounds like a good idea ColdBricks! Im tempted, but unless there is a serious sale on RAS or some of next years 2010 SW sets, then I won't order. Nice idea though! CommanderFox
Bricktrain Posted December 28, 2009 Posted December 28, 2009 Has anyone seen any 8263 snowplows in any stores at all, it was meant to have been an october release but I havent seen any here or in Nelson anywhere, had a store ask at Lego but they said it was exclusive, but didnt say who to?
