Brickus Posted January 18, 2014 Thanks guys, By that reasoning I also should have received my order last week. This is my response from LEGO. I'm sorry to hear your orders haven't yet arrived. We haven't changed the way we shipped parcels. However, we were recently informed by DHL that there is a delay with orders that have recently been shipped out because of an issue with the plane. Therefore, your orders may be delayed an additional 3-5 working days. I'm so sorry for any disappointment this has caused. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jonwil Posted January 18, 2014 I suspect any k-mart stores with HH stock left probably have them at the clearance price, even if it isn't mentioned on the shelf. Scan it with the price scanner to be sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
d-delay Posted January 18, 2014 There are LOTS of HHs at $189 at Fountaingate Kmart ;) go get 'em!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

d-delay Posted January 19, 2014 Can I just thank you, dragonau, for all your hard work and contributions to this thread?! I know your efforts have saved me money, and many others, so keep up the great work for as long as you can :) I know it is probably a thankless task, but I am sure I speak for a fair few! Thanks again!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted January 19, 2014 I noticed at BigW TTP today, they have the large police helicopter set for 79 bucks.....which I feel is already 20% off. Some Target stores are starting to get police sets, but Myers are catching up even more......with police sets (no giant copter) and movie CMF's. Oh, and slowly the new junior sets are moving in to Target's, BigW's and Myers as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Artanis I Posted January 20, 2014 Stacks of Haunted Houses available, or none, depending. Shop around! $190 is an excellent price, shame I got it from S@H for $270 before we knew where it would be available. ...and i'm not entirely sure what to make of that. A 3-4 day delay means I would have had it last week? I think they meant you will have to wait another 3-4 days after their message? Or did they send that weeks ago?

jonwil Posted January 21, 2014 Buy 2 get one free sale reported at MYER until Monday. Tempted by the movie figs but not sure if I can afford any LEGO right now (since I may well have to spend a chunk of change on white goods, furniture and other things depending on what apartment I end up moving into and if its furnished or unfurnished). That and the nearest MYER stores are at Pacific Fair, Robina or Loganholme and there is no gaurantee they even have stock. In other news, K-Mart at Australia Fair has no movie figs left (just an empty box) and no haunted houses either. They did however have most of the January stuff including the new Friends animals and Friends sets, the new police station and the new police mobile truck command post thing. The police truck is actually not as expensive as I thought it would be, at least at K-Mart prices (and not as expensive as the last few similar truck sets) Nothing at Mr Toys of note. Also if you can find a Target that still has stock, someone reported that they have discounted the Monster Fighters ghost train all the way down to $40 (from a $120 RRP). Thats 1/3rd the AU RRP and below any online price I can spot (including Bricklink). Excellent price if you are looking for parts (e.g. the large train wheels or the ghosts).

dragonau Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) ShopForMe daily blitz: LEGO The Hobbit An Unexpected Gathering 79003 $119.99 $89.99 Save: 25% off SFM is apparantly selling its last remaining hobbit 79003 sets. Although it is not retired yet (lego shop still selling in Au, US, UK and Canada), it has been around since nov 2012 so it may go out of production soon and now might be a good time to pick it up. Note that half of the other sets in the same batch of the series (i.e. 79000, 79002, 79010) are sold out on the online Lego shop for Australia and retired in the UK/US/Canada. The following are still available: 79001, 79003, 79004---all at Au retail price. Set 79004 was retired in US and Canada a few days ago. Check Target first if you want any of these sets as I have seen them on clearance end of last year/early Jan---though maybe not many (if any) left now (e.g. 79000 $13, 79001 $34 or $29 depending on the store, 79002 $59(?) (can't remember this one exactly sorry)---would you please update us if you know anything about seeing these recently in target and prices. I haven't seen set 79003 for months in the retail stores and didn't see it in Myer today. Please let us know if you see it in your local Myer this week during the buy2get1 sale. Now may be the best time to pick up any of the above sets at Myer if you are lucky to find them there. Edited January 22, 2014 by dragonau Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
