Hewman Posted August 24, 2011 (edited) The Winter Post Office ($110) and the Volkswagen camper van ($170) are up on shop at home now but not for sale yet. Re the toyworld sale, it says limit of one coupon per customer. I couldn't find anything useful to pair up to get the maximum 25% discount at Adelaide toyworld. They did have the Space Police 3 set with the big yellow crate at the back reduced to $30 (I think it's called Container Heist). If anyone desperately wants the coupon, PM me, unless someone here wants to do a great favour and post it here. Edited August 24, 2011 by hewman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dotmike Posted August 24, 2011 (edited) 2.Has anyone seen them at Myers yet, to take advantage of board game offer I saw them at Myer Miranda (Sydney) today. Is the 3 for 2 minus 10% MyerOne discount still on? I thought that was only for the weekend before last? Edit: I guess the 30% off board games 11th August - 11th September is what you're referring to. Isn't that online only, or do board games scan 30% off at the register of a Myer store?

jamonlego Posted August 25, 2011 thanks for the tip re heroica - picked up the big 3 from Myers today for $70 you were right about torworld - not too much there - lots of lego but even offer doesn't bring price down much Big W had minifigure stand - $20 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrettBrick Posted August 25, 2011 Big W had minifigure stand - $20 Is that the 8 figure stand or the 16 figure stand? Also did you note which colours they had? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jamonlego Posted August 25, 2011 they had the 16 only - in brisbane city colours yellow, blue, black, red - 1 of each though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brickus Posted August 25, 2011 (edited) I bought all the different colours of the Minifigure stand, and they look great with all 4 series of CMF. Edited August 25, 2011 by Brickus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chrism Posted August 26, 2011 I see Fishpond's website is experiencing a bout of honest pricing. For example, the wizard impulse set is listed as '$5.99 $17.99' Refreshing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lightningtiger Posted August 26, 2011 So when is the next Myer sale? :classic: Mid to late September I was told by Myers today. Oh, also I had a talk to Kmart today as well, they will be getting some larger sets in shortly.....what ones they didn't say. Plus the Black Pearl will be an independent exclusive....i.e. Toyworld, etc., sometime in November. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for the info, LT, it's disappointing the Black Pearl won't be widely available, because the chances of a decent toyworld sale are pretty small, and that's if you can even find the set in stock. Did they happen to mention a price? I'm guessing around $160 just based on the QAR's price. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Plus the Black Pearl will be an independent exclusive....i.e. Toyworld, etc., sometime in November. No threat what so ever with an independent having the PoTC Black Pearl in Australia and charging full RRP, I think allot of people (ie: me) will be ordering the set from overseas any ways at half the price......... because I can guarantee that everyone will stock the Black Pearl overseas and will be having some decent sales just to compete with consumer dollars.

GI blockage Posted August 26, 2011 Woolies supermarket in Parramatta has some Cars2 merch for sale. In amongst the stuff was Tokyo Pit Stop and Maters Spy Zone - tag said $15 but they actually scanned thru for a mere $10. Also saw the small Mater, but don't know how much for. I'm glad I made the impulse purchase, Holly Shiftwell turns out to be pretty sexy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jonwil Posted August 26, 2011 I have also seen 1 or 2 of the small Cars sets in my local woolies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hewman Posted August 26, 2011 (edited) Odd, must be a NSW thing ! My local woolworths (Athelstone, SA) had some Cars duplo on clearance for half price last week, but didn't think anyone would be particularly interested. That's great that Toy Corner (Adelaide) will have the Black Pearl, all I have to do is hold out for a 15% off sale, if I haven't got it from overseas already that is. For those without an independent retailer near them and don't like ordering from overseas I believe Toy Corner still takes mail order and their service is outstanding.

dotmike Posted August 27, 2011 Myer currently have a buy 2 games, get 3rd free sale on, ends Sunday 28th of August. Good stuff! Thank you. I made use of the sale, not to buy Heroica, which I'm not particularly keen on, probably because I have no one to play it with, but to buy three identical Harry Potter Hogwarts games. The HP set is actually very good for parts. With a 33% discount, plus a $20 digital gift card I'd scored somehow making it an effective 47% discount, the extravagance of never again having to go hunting for 6x6 plates, brown tiles and 1x16 tan bricks seemed worthwhile.

I have a $20 Myer discount too so now you've tempted me - don't collect HP but I'm sure there's some MOCer who'd want the mini-mini figures.... You know how much the sets are each off-hand?

jamonlego Posted August 27, 2011 The new hoth base set was at toysrus in brisbane (garden city) yesterday - $169 though - they also had smaller minifig stand ($15) but no series 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You know how much the sets are each off-hand? Harry Potter Hogwarts is 49.95, the most expensive of the games. Three of them would normally total 149.85, but until the end of today will total 99.80. Apply the discount card and you'll be up for 79.90. So, in effect, the HP game sets will cost $26.63 each. There are 332 pieces in each set.
