lightningtiger Posted January 15, 2015 Spotted rumors on another forum that suggest that the LEGO store is going to be part of the current upgrade at Chadstone. Makes sense, since many of Lego's stores overseas are in shopping centres. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Darth Malgus Posted January 16, 2015 Nice posts on news of Aussie sales, guys... No difference when compared with posts about the quality of sets, it is topical, more future based, but still topical. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lostdriveway Posted January 16, 2015 Seeing as it is one of the only Aussie threads, it's the one I go to for all my Aussie information so I'm glad it was posted here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted January 16, 2015 By chance I bumped into the Lego rep for SA this morning, the city range was split in half with the reminder of sets for January becoming available next week sometime. Plus he was sheepish when I asked about Scooby Doo.......hmm.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nikaliptus Posted January 16, 2015 Spotted rumors on another forum that suggest that the LEGO store is going to be part of the current upgrade at Chadstone. Uh oh, that would be very dangerous...I work at Chadstone! May as well just get my salary re-directed directly into their bank account if that rumour proves true, lol.

jonwil Posted January 16, 2015 TRU has never been about having sales or getting the latest product in really fast. TRU is about having exclusives you cant get anywhere else and about having the biggest range of toys (and baby products via Babies R Us) in the country.

Wait no longer... pretty sure I saw the service truck at Big W both in Elizabeth (yesterday) and TTP (today) for $28! Go relieve yourself! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted January 17, 2015 Wait no longer... pretty sure I saw the service truck at Big W both in Elizabeth (yesterday) and TTP (today) for $28! Go relieve yourself! Aw, but I'll save some money if I shop at TC and why should I spend more money at Woolworths eh ? LOL I was told by the Lego rep on Friday that the snow plow was at BigW TTP but not the service truck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LOL I was told by the Lego rep on Friday that the snow plow was at BigW TTP but not the service truck. Is there a discount on new stock at Toy Corner? Thought its usually just RRP? And pretty sure there was at least 1 service truck on the shelf... plenty of all the other sets though... I am still waiting for the police station and for the motorbike transport. I saw the motorbike transport today... I love the new designed motorbikes but the ute just looks so American and blocky.... as does the 4x4 that comes with the powerboat... just cant get into it..

jonwil Posted January 18, 2015 Has anyone heard any rumors about whether we are going to get the Shell Ferrari promo sets when the F1 comes to town like we did with the last batch? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darth Malgus Posted January 18, 2015 I saw the snow plow at big w yesterday, its a cool set. I quite like the city range this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted January 19, 2015 BigW on Thursday has a Lego City sale.......29.99 GV's down to 24 bucks.......among a few other sets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jonwil Posted January 19, 2015 If that City sale includes the new motorbike transporter its the perfect time to pick one up as $25 is probably as cheap as that set will get for a while. (of course that assumes there is a Big W in SE QLD with stock :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(of course that assumes there is a Big W in SE QLD with stock :) Try 24 dollars , just make a phone call to a BigW near you and ask if they have them.......I do that quite a bit in Adelaide......lack of stock I then end up at TC......I prefer to spend my cash there. I checked TRU at Gepps Cross tonight......ONE city set left on the shelf - they are a joke aren't they ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Civic Bossman Posted January 19, 2015 K-Mart seem to be the only one stocking the Beach Buggy transport set ($28). They also had the Minecraft Mine which Big W over here didn't have yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
