r74 Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 Is this asda living or asda supermarket? I went to my asda supermarket and they didn't have any, I was so looking forward to it. The ones i paid £11.90 for was a big asda walmart but the ones i paid £8.50 for were from a smaller asda supermarket, they were on top shelf with no prices so i took one each to get scanned and they came up at £8.50. It does seem to differ massively cos my partner picked up loads the star wars fighter pods 4packs which are normally around £5 reduced to £2 where as the asda that had the lego for £8.50 only had a £1 knocked off the fighter pods. Think i spent last few days trawling asda and tesco's to get some bargains, tesco apparently had the millenium falcon at half price for £64 but think i missed that one.. Quote
rakky Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 Damn thats a bargain price, im going to my asda living shop tomorrow and praying they have them, otherwise i might buy the lukes landspeeder set for 15 pounds, is that a good price? Quote

Wowplayer Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 I'm so excited!!! After 3 years of waiting, I finally got my hands on a New Sealed in box copy of the Lego set 8039: Venator Class-Republic Attack Cruiser!! I purchased it on EBay for $139, which is a heck of a deal considering that it cost over $200 on amazon market place (USA). Quote
Brickmamba Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 Just picked up from eBay 9392 TIE fighter for $56 cool ones Quote
Danthebrick Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 (edited) Thanks guys for the Asda UK info - I popped into my local store and got droid escape for £11.50 and the Geonosan Cannon for £8.50 - very happy! Also Tesco has Pod Racer set for £34.99 and I'm tempted to get it at that price. Edited March 2, 2012 by Danthebrick Quote

Ebak Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 (edited) £35 for the podracers?! I have to get it, please tell me the deals are still going on. I was well gutted to find out that the Tesco's in my area was sold out....**** (excuse my french). I have been after that set for so long on a tight budget. Edited March 2, 2012 by Ebak Quote

Tesco are clearing their discontinued stock - its just a case of seeing what your local store has left - my store near Manchester (Walkden) had the Pod Racer set at half price - I have also seen the Geonosan Fighter reduced to half price.

Lord Of The Fries Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 Won an auction for 9492 TiE Fighter on ebay. It cost $61 including postage Quote
aoxoa Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 Just ordered the exclusive figs from the SSD and a Bespin Guard off brick link for $55 CAD. Quote
CF Mitch Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 Today I picked up the 9494 Anakin's Jedi Interceptor at A-Tembo (a Dutch computer store with a little LEGO department in Delft). I'm glad to finally have it, the ship is really cool, I think, and the minifigs are awesome Regards, Mitch Quote
The_Box Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 I bought the new TIE at Wal-Mart Sunday, since its actually $5 cheaper than Lego there. Target has it at $50 too but Wal-Mart is closer to me. Overall, the whole time at the store took around 10-15 minutes. Most of the time was at the register. The set itself is quite bigger than I thought it would be, which is nice. I did have a little kid moment when I purposely dropped it on the floor and pieces shattered everywhere. That was a pleasant experience. Quote

streifen Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 Finally, after many phases of consideration, i bought the Death Star last night. burst my Lego budget for the next 2 months... Quote
KurttKrueger Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 (edited) I don't often frequent the Star Wars boards, I must admit. I'm a massive fan of Star Wars, and the Lego sets, but the majority are out of my price range, so I tend to not buy any. However, I was in Asda Motherwell in Scotland, UK a few weeks back, and managed to find 7962-1: Anakin Skywalker and Sebulba's Podracers for just £14.99 on sale! Thats a saving of £67!!! It's a great set, with Sebulba's pod being incredibly details. We love it! Edit: I should also add, I did buy the 10188 Death Star a couple of years back. That was a no-brainer :D Edited March 7, 2012 by KurttKrueger Quote
Final Exit Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 Picked up the Death star and TIE interceptor 9676, Endor battle pack 9489 and the Elite Clone trooper battle pack 9488 today Quote
BudhaBoss Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 (edited) For me the most recent is 10221 Executor (purchased together with 10220 from Pixmania), completing my collection of UCS SW sets (only the ships and not playsets, I hate these, nor busts). But sold most of the nonUCS SW Lego sets at the same time. Edited March 7, 2012 by BudhaBoss Quote
Im a brickmaster. Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 Well I just got back from Florida yesterday and a HAD to stop by the Lego store, so I grabed the bounty hunter gunship. Actuly I really like, the landing feature works quite well Quote
Sir_Basil_Ashton Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 Bought another Droid Escape. Love the Sandtroopers. Couldn't resist with the new Target $5 off coupon. Quote
Ki-Adi-Mundi Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 Received 9495 (Y-Wing Gold Leader) today. A very nice set and a worthy addition to my collection. Quote
TheLegoJoker Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 Not as into Star Wars sets as I used to be, but I recently found General Grievous' Starfighter at Target for $14.95. Not sure why it was on clearance when nothing else was, but I wasn't going to complain about it, either. Quote
Huntleyfx Posted March 17, 2012 Posted March 17, 2012 I also just got the General Grevious Fighter, and an Endor BP. Quote
