RileyC Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 (edited) Hey Callum can you tell us the day the new sets arrive? Edited January 7, 2010 by Roncanator
Callum Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 Hey Callum can you tell us the day the new sets arrive? Nein sorry, they show up when they show up generally. Most likely with a few days in betwix stores.
RileyC Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 Nein sorry, they show up when they show up generally. Most likely with a few days in betwix stores. Ok thanks. Can you say when they appear in your store so we know that they have been released in New Zealand please?
Grrr Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 The Warehouse at the Base doens't have them yet. Asked a staffer who turned out to be the store person. He went out back for a few minutes and came out with Lego cartons... containing even more 2009 stock! I wonder how well Lego did over Christmas given the amount of 2009 stock in stores at the moment.

Yea no one has any 2010 sets at the moment. Be sure to check K-mart by the two story warehouse in town because last year they had new star wars sets at really low prices

Be sure to check K-mart by the two story warehouse in town because last year they had new star wars sets at really low prices Kmart has a few as of this evening: 620, 7206, 7208, 8083. 8083, which is the only set of interest to most of you is $22. I asked at the service desk to see if they had any other new sets out back, and she said she didn't know, but they will definately have a few more buy next week. She showed me the mailer which has specials starting for the 14th, and 8083 and 8084 are both marked down that week to $18. Am hoping to find the other town sets I'm after in the next few days. It was disappointing to see sets that I'm not after, and not one that I am. I'd have settled even for just 3177 or 7567. Knowing my luck though, 7567 won't be hear for another year. It took bloody ages for 8398 to appear in the Southern Hemisphere.

The Lego shelves in the Greymouth warehouse were nearly empty after xmas. Was the shipment late or something?

Im definitly picking up atleast 1 or 2 of each BP! CommanderFox
Fumoffu Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 Thanks for the headsup Grrr. I'm going to check out my local Kmart to see what's their shelf. I'll hold the purchase until next week ... hopefully.

Its good that K-mart said that they would have more next week which matches with Callum's time frame so every body is getting them at the same time. Its good that they are selling the battle packs under RRP because then they might be selling the others under RRP which is great Edited January 8, 2010 by Roncanator

It's just that I want the new non-fire town sets. Though the new fire station is tempting.
evil_elmo Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 I'm in hong kong at the moment and toysrus has all the 2010 star wars set here they even have the Fire Brigade set which is awesome but alot of money

Fumoffu Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 Sweet. Did you see how much the army men set was? Just got back from my local Kmart and saw plenty of Rebel BP for $22. The Imperial BP is $22 too but didn't see any on the shelf but I did see the pricing label. The Army Men Toy Story set is $22 and Buzz Lightyear is $45. Can't wait for the sale to pick up a couple of BPs ... I hope they will have the Imperial BP on the shelf at the sale.

I really hope they do have all the sets next week so I can have a whole week of building lego!
Callum Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 Local K-Mart = No new stocks Local Toyworld = No new stock (due date is hazy, a collegue quoted me "Next month" but she was guessing. The rep said next week Local Warehouse = No new stock on the shelves, but new stock has been received.

Well I also just got back from my local Kmart (Albany) and they had around 15 of each BP and I think roughly 10 ARCs and I think around 10 Freeco speeders. Well, Im going on Holiday on Monday up north and there isn't any Kmarts up there, so I couldn't hold back on the BPs in case I missed them if the sale ended before I came back. So Im about to go open them now. Sorry I didn't check to see what price the ARC or the Freeco where, I was in abig rush. I might grab the ARC if I come back in time for the last of the sale, but by then they'll be all gone most likly. Oh well, the BPs are fine for now. BTW there where also the toy story army men set and the Buzz set. Also some new City Fire sets. And the new Blue baseplate which was $9. CommanderFox Edited January 9, 2010 by CommanderFox

CommanderFox Sweet! cool I really wanted to get those sets first so I hope they will be there next week. Its good that its 20% off because that makes the arc 170 $112 and the freeco speeder $40 which are more reasonable prices for the sets
CommanderFox Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 Were there any Ben 10 or Bionicle sets? No, not any that I could see, though I could have missed them.

Do you know when the sale ends? I might be able to go on the 22nd, but maybe not. I just hope the sale goes till sommething like the 1 of Feb, then i'll deffinatly go! CommanderFox

CommanderFox No sorry I havent seen their mailer about it yet I just assumed it was a 20-25% off sale because Grrr said the battle packs were $22 and they are down to $18 dollars next week. EDIT: how are your battle packs CF? Edited January 9, 2010 by Roncanator

Oh okay, I looked on there site and it said No catalogues up at the moment or something. There AMAZING!!! :wub: My small Hoth diorama is looking better and better. CommanderFox
Brickthing Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 I've just been to the same Kmart, and the new sets CF mentioned also include Woody's Roundup, the smallest Racer sets and the small Creator House and Car sets. The Arc is $140, and the Army Men were only $22, so I took one of those.
