Legoman Posted February 20, 2010 Author Posted February 20, 2010 (edited) I Brought the Republic Swamp Speeder just befiore... About to build it :) EDIT: Well, I finished it, and to be honest, am plesantly surprised. Its actully bigger than I expected, Barriss is and the whole thing is way bigger than the original. At 20% off, its actully not too bad. Also, While at the warehouse, I noticed they have put down the price on their BP's to $22. So with 20% off they were a crazy $17.59... Bargian!

I should have the time to get out to the Red Shed today to get my Swamp Speeder. Might pickup a Snowtrooper BP too. I thought $18 at Kmart last time was good but looks like the Red Shed has done a little better.
harmacy Posted February 20, 2010 Posted February 20, 2010 Hi All - It was my last day at my current job on Friday and all of my workmates pitched in and got me an Emerald Night. It was a fantastic present, and I love it! - If anyone is contemplating getting the EN, dont hesitate - its a wonderful set (I didnt apply any of the stickers though - ewwww).... Looks like Ill also be visiting the red shed today for some battlepacks too. I only wish that these BP sets were available when I did my Hoth MOC back in '08 for the cheap snowies and rebels!
AoNZ Posted February 20, 2010 Posted February 20, 2010 $17.59 for those Battle Packs is a steal. I already bought all mine though at K-Marts $18 price. Finally got Luke's Landspeeder, last one though, and I don't know whether to build it or hang on to it. May have to get those new Power Miners sets too, love those new lava monsters. Is the Warehouse doing 20% off all Lego or just on specific sets?

Along with a Titantive and all sorts of other lego (PAB )

Along with a Titantive and all sorts of other lego (PAB ) Got my Swamp Speeder for $48 and its great. Definitely worth it. The BP is $17.59 for the Hoth Rebel BP only. The Snowtrooper BP is $19.99. Don't know why. Well, that's $17.59 more in my bank for now ... until the next wave or Farmers do a 30% off.

Sorry guys. Still a steal for the rebels though
RileyC Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 I bought the Swamp Speeder and the Tri Fighter after looking at the boxes for what seemed like hours. I have made the Swamp Speeder is incredible! Barriss is and Im so glad I got it. The clone is nice but Im not sure why he was needed in the set when a phase 1 would have been just as good. Going to build the Tri Fighter after dinner.
CommanderFox Posted February 24, 2010 Posted February 24, 2010 (edited) Just 2 $1 res auctions I thought someone here would be interisted in. 7754 Home One Brand New! $1 Res! $1 res Chrome Stormie! Brand New! That Home one is tempting but I know it will go too high for a bargain so won't bother about it. CommanderFox Edited February 24, 2010 by CommanderFox
RileyC Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 Ooh that chrome stormie looks nice. The pirce hasnt risen for a while so I will definitely watch that auction. Thanks CommandeFox!
AoNZ Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 That auction closes in 6 days though and by then the price probably would have risen to maybe $16 or so. Bids probably won't go higher than $20 as I saw a few $20 auctions a while back that no one was interested in.
CommanderFox Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 Ooh that chrome stormie looks nice. The pirce hasnt risen for a while so I will definitely watch that auction. Thanks CommandeFox! Your welcome! Anytime. Btw, the other day in the warehouse mailer, they had the Creator fire engine for $89 (saving $20). Seems pretty good. No news on farmers sales? CommanderFox
Logbo Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 I love flossy on trademe. that is all. Farmers still taking ages for Helicopter limo set.... "taps fingers" got the fire station today from Warehouse for 139, seamed reasonable. was 159 at toy world.
jonwil Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 If you want the heli/limo set, just find someone from Australia willing to buy and send you one (with you paying them somehow of course)
Fumoffu Posted March 1, 2010 Posted March 1, 2010 The Han Solo & Palpatine magnet sets are on Shop@Home now. Anyone putting in a Shop@Home order anytime soon? Or anyone know whether these will be coming to NZ? Haven't seen them in the shops but have seen the watches.

Im kinda keen on that Palpi magnet, nice cheap way to get him. CommanderFox

RileyC Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 The Grand Emporium is on the S@H for $299. It really seems a lot to me but I am contemplating it because I would like to get into the modular building sub theme but one problem I have is that its so expensive!

Maybe Toyworld will bring it in and you can get it at one of their 20% sale. I bought my Green Grocer on 20% off and that made it a little more affordable. I'm hoping Toyworld will eventually bring the Fire Brigade and Grand Emporium to NZ. Kmart seems to do big Star Wars set at their Toy Sale more than anything else. If you want to get into modular building then maybe the Green Grocer is a better set to start with. It has a few more pieces and is $80 cheaper.

Yeah it probably is and its older so it could go anytime soon. Also Green Grocer is said to be the best one yet so I will take your advice and when I am able to get it I will. Thanks.
CommanderFox Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 Warehouse have 20% off the top 20 toys! Snow trooper BP: $16!

Power Miners Granite Grinder: $16 power miners Crystal Sweeper: $96. power miners Stone Chopper: $10.39 power miners Thunder Driller: $48. Toy Story Buzzs Star Command Spaceship: $56, save $14! POWER MINERS Claw Digger: $32. Power Miners Crystal King: $27.19. Power Miners Rock Wrecker: $47.19 Seems like they are trying to clear there Power Miners stock! I think Im going to buy some imperial BPs, especially at that price! CommanderFox

Its really odd, I got the warehouse mailer today and noticed that the imperial BP is in it for $20!? Online it is $16.99, and says "save $5, down from $22. Do you think that the price online is one from an older sale? Dissapointing if it is $20. CommanderFox
AllanSmith Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 Also in the Warehouse mailer is the LEGO movie, The Adventures of Clutch Powers
