Thanks CommanderFox P.S. how much is the Death star Roncanator is it the same price as S@H? CommanderFox, Wuzzupbob, or Clone army Customs they're pretty dammed expensive too! *edit* just read your post, The figures are from Wuzzup bob, and the domes are from BA? i think? I've found where They're from but can't remeber. I'm glad you like my Bly! I use citadel paints and a fine detail brush. Im only waiting on the MMCB pauldrons and kama's to arrive!

-Jim- Posted June 11, 2009 Posted June 11, 2009 Huck to Flat, I take it you are a DHiller? Might possibly see you out on the Wellie trails at some point. Does any one have much in the way of spare city and yellow bits they would like to sell, mainly in the old style technic beams, no rush at the moment. Can not help with the sending the sets to Perth, sorry.

Legoman Posted June 12, 2009 Author Posted June 12, 2009 Ok, given that these sets arent likely to be out in Australia anytime soon (City Corner and Cemetery Battle), I would like to see about possibly ordering both sets from someone in New Zealand.What I want for this to work is someone from New Zealand who: 1.Can accept payment (in AUD, NZD or anything else, I will pay in whatever) without using PayPal (as they are on my personal black ban list because of previous bad experiences with them) and without the need to send a physical letter (e.g. money order or cash-in-the-mail). If there is a way to directly transfer money from my bank account, that would work, as would a way to pay via VISA, as would other electronic transfer options. 2.Is willing to buy the City Corner and Cemetery Battle, unpack them, repack them with as little empty space as possible (but keeping the bags unopened and the instructions and stickers intact so they wont get damaged in the post) and send them to Perth, Australia using International Air 3.Can give me a pre-quote in whatever currency so I know exactly how much I need to pay. and 4.Can do all this with no major delays (i.e. if you wouldn't be able to buy and send it for 3 weeks, dont bother) Also, if the person can get hold of the 4899 Tractor (I dont know exactly how you can get one in NZ, just that you can) I will buy one of those too. EDIT: If you can help, contact me via the contact options in my profile. Oh and mods, if this is in the wrong place, please move it somewhere appropriate. Wow... Good luck. I personally don't know any way of overseas payent methods other that those you've ruled out. Also, 4899 promo tractor's were only availible for about a month, and you can't get them any more. Also, that's a lot of work youre asking of someone... you may want to make it worth their while.... I'd be more than willing to help, but i can only accept palpal, and i have no 4899's left.

I'd be more than willing to help, but i can only accept palpal, and i have no 4899's left. i think if you are with ANZ you can directly transfer money into a ANZ new zealand account by the time you make it worth that person's time it wont end up any cheaper
jonwil Posted June 12, 2009 Posted June 12, 2009 Its not about the cost, its about the fact that you kiwis have product on the shelf now but us Aussies will likely have to wait months for the same products.
Fumoffu Posted June 13, 2009 Posted June 13, 2009 Just got back from the local Kmart. Some of the second wave of Lego Star Wars finally arrived at Kmart. Unfortunately Kmart is not apply their usual discount to these sets. These are selling at their RRP: Echo Base ($49.99) Tank Droid ($49.99) Sep Shuttle ($69.99) Didn't seen any other new sets (Star Wars or otherwise). Did see a label for the Telescopic Handler at $30 but can't find any actual sets.
evil_elmo Posted June 13, 2009 Posted June 13, 2009 i was at the warehouse northlands and they have the venator for $289, so they are cheaper than RRP

Dragonator Posted June 13, 2009 Posted June 13, 2009 Has anyone in Wellington seen the new Indiana Jones sets yet? I just dropped into the Farmers in Manners Mall, as well as the Toyworld Megastore, and still no sign of them.
RileyC Posted June 13, 2009 Posted June 13, 2009 Still no endor's then? Yea i havent seen it here in hamilton either. Wasnt it supposed to be it stores now?
CommanderFox Posted June 13, 2009 Posted June 13, 2009 when i was at Farmers albany the other day and picked up Nutes shuttle they had some of the new IJ sets cant remember the set numbers but they where RRP so with the discount it might have been abit cheaper sorry for not notifying you CommanderFox

CommanderFox Posted June 15, 2009 Posted June 15, 2009 Hey guys am i the only one posting here just saying this because some of you might not know that the Space Police sets are out at S@H http://shop.lego.com/ByTheme/Leaf.aspx?cn=589&d=70 squiddy looks really tempting *drools* red cape http://shop.lego.com/ByTheme/Product.aspx?...cn=589&d=70 they are cheaper then i expected so thats nice CommanderFox
Fumoffu Posted June 15, 2009 Posted June 15, 2009 Those Space Police sets are interesting. Lots of unique or rare pieces too. Wonder when we'll see them in the shops. We been lucky with the second wave of Star Wars and Indiana Jones. Wonder if we will get the Space Police sets early too. CommanderFox, are you going to update your avatar photo with the actual Cmdr Fox?
CommanderFox Posted June 15, 2009 Posted June 15, 2009 Yes Fumoffu im going to try to update it tonight ...sorry for the delay CommanderFox
RileyC Posted June 15, 2009 Posted June 15, 2009 the new space police aliens look real cool. Im still buying star wars stuff though
Fumoffu Posted June 15, 2009 Posted June 15, 2009 I think some of the Space Police minifigures will be pretty good to add to my Star Wars collection. I can use them as alien races to spice up some of the plays. I see S@H now has all the second wave sets up.
CommanderFox Posted June 15, 2009 Posted June 15, 2009 YAY!!! even Endor is up at S@H still $250 is hard to come by for me CommanderFox
RileyC Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 yea i saw that they were up! They look so good! i cant wait to get battle of endor even though it is quite expensive. But still no home one or pirate tank
Fumoffu Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 Looks like Battle of Endor is first available in NZ on Trademe: http://www.trademe.co.nz/Toys-models/Lego-...n-224792088.htm
CommanderFox Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 WOW that person was REALLY REALLY FAST!!! some one will snap it up and be the first person in NZ to own one stuff you person :skull: ....no offense to anyone here if they buy it CommanderFox
evil_elmo Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 i was at the warehouse northlands before and they had signs up saying 8 days to go before the TOY SALE anyone know anything about this? i havent seen any advertising about it
harmacy Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 Hey guys - does anyone here in NZ own the UCS Y-wing and UCS Vaders Tie Advanced? Im wanting to see if anyone could please measure the length of these models, as im thinking of buying them specifically to sit together in a diorama, and want to know whether their scale is similar. Ive done a internet search, but most results are different, or completely non-sensical... Any help would be appreciated - Oh, and if anyone has either of these sets to sell, please let me know:)
