How about the new limo set (I think its only available from Farmers ATM) for your big bad to travel in. I guess it depends on how much you have to spend on kits

Thats not too bad... I wouldnt have any use for the copter tho
Nikkiwi Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 (edited) The Limo + Helicopter set ? Thats not too bad... I wouldnt have any use for the copter tho Use it in another MOC??? Or set your scene at the airport (catching the big bad as he's trying to flee from the BatWrath ) changing the subject....does anyone have a spare dark red 47457 block lying around that they would be willing to donate/sell. According to Peeron, 2 come in the clone trooper battle pack, so if any of you SW afficionados has spares, please get in touch (I need it to complete a dragon from a kit I got off trademe) thanks in advance Nikkiwi Edited April 20, 2010 by Nikkiwi

I deal with this seller a lot, and they are very quick. They're not dark red, but may still suit your model... - Oh, and based in Wellington, so postage within NZ is cheap!

Nikkiwi Posted April 21, 2010 Posted April 21, 2010 For anyone who hasn't seen there are 3 big SW sets (#8038 Battle for Endor, 7666 Hoth Rebel Base & 7754 Mon Calamari Star Cruiser) MISB just gone up on TradeMe for $1NR Cheers Nikkiwi

Nikkiwi Posted April 21, 2010 Posted April 21, 2010 (edited) And after 2 bids, the Endor set is already at $50...... And the same guy has also put out #7749 echo base at $1NR (bid now at $1-50) That 20% off city at the big red shed is good - does anyone know if you can get the campervan there or that limited to Kmart only?? Cheers Nikkiwi edit to add: BTW the Toys'R'Fun store at Westfield Albany just recieved a big LEGO shipment in today - they were unloading the pallet instore while I was passing through Edited April 21, 2010 by Nikkiwi
RileyC Posted April 21, 2010 Posted April 21, 2010 does anyone know if you can get the campervan there or that limited to Kmart only?? I have a feeling that the campervan is only available at Kmart. It is still a really great set I picked it up just the other day.
David Thomsen Posted April 21, 2010 Posted April 21, 2010 Wait, which campervan is this? Is it 7639? Because I got mine from Farmers, and I'm sure I've seen it elsewhere. I can't think of any campervan but that one. Maybe it's exclusive to K-Mart elsewhere in the country, or they're the only ones who still have it in stock...
CommanderFox Posted April 21, 2010 Posted April 21, 2010 7639 isn't a kmart exclusive. Btw, does anybody have any Harry Potter Lego they want to get rid of? Pm if you do! CommanderFox
Nikkiwi Posted April 21, 2010 Posted April 21, 2010 7639 isn't a kmart exclusive. Btw, does anybody have any Harry Potter Lego they want to get rid of? Pm if you do! CommanderFox Nope...not into harry potter (except when the parts go well with my preferred Castle/viking/medieval theme stuff...lol). Good to hear the camper isn't an exclusive...more chance of getting it on sale somewhere (I'm trying to build up a collection of city kits with female minifigs for my daughters once they get old enough to play nicely with it) Endor now up to $65...<gloom> Am interested in any castle related stuff that people want to get rid of, or as mentioned, female minifigs (any theme)
Nikkiwi Posted April 22, 2010 Posted April 22, 2010 (edited) <RANT MODE ON> My God - There are some unbelievable optimists on TradeMe when it comes to LEGO!!!! Just check out trademe lister "Sassea" and the price they are expecting for viking kits that have been divided into separate elements!!! Not to mention the "castle seige". I could buy the viking kits complete and new off bricklink for the price they want for the Ofnir dragon alone!!!!! Don't these people do ANY market research before listing????????? And then they no doubt wonder why no-one bids on their auctions..... Sheesh <rant mode off> edited for language filters Edited April 22, 2010 by Nikkiwi

I collect minifigures, so generally I do not include those with trades or sales however :) After anything in particular?

Cheers Nikkiwi Im a long time customer of Maxspace in Australia, and also of Gelo here in New Zealand. Between the 2 of them, they have most of the bricks I need - and have great service too. Plus, Australian postage is generally cheaper than from the States or Europe. You can also check the EB Bricklink trusted sellers list here which may help in your desicion. As with Trade Me here in NZ, check the sellers feedback accordingly.
