lostdriveway Posted January 28, 2015 Spotted a few things on my epic shopping odyssey today. A few Simpsons Houses at Target Garden City and I think also MYER Garden City if anyone is still looking for one. Anyone who wants a Palace Cinema, there was one lone box sitting on the shelves at David Jones Indooropilly. A few architecture sets (including the Trevi Fountain, UN building, Vila Savoye, Eiffel Tower and Leaning Tower of Pisa) at MYER Brisbane CBD. Oh and David Jones Brisbane CBD has at least 30 Fairground Mixers. (and yes I really did visit both Garden City AND Indooropilly today along with Carindale, Toombul, Chermside, Toowong and Brisbane CBD) Talk about covering some ground today!

afolaus Posted February 4, 2015 (edited) I just noticed that the Australian TRU website has a couple of 2015 Star Wars lego sets for sale (the T-16 Skyhopper and Wookiee Gunship specifically) and was wondering if anyone was seeing 2015 sets show up in TRU stores. edit: http://www.toysrus.c...o-new-arrivals/ when you click on new arrivals you also get a bunch of Chima, City and Minecraft sets but nothing else. The new Star sets don't show up there, nor Friends. Edited February 4, 2015 by afolaus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jtr Posted February 4, 2015 (edited) When i click the link, I can see skyhopper ($39), gunship ($99) and the AAT ($39) set - they seem pretty expensive . . .but they are marked not available online Edited February 4, 2015 by jtr Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Artanis I Posted February 4, 2015 they seem pretty expensive That's because they are SW Lego sets at RRP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted February 4, 2015 That's because they are SW Lego sets at RRP. But hey at least they forgot to add the TRU SW tax ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
afolaus Posted February 4, 2015 Ok now Star Wars and Friends are showing up. Maybe I needed to refresh or reset my cookies. And they were available to purchase online like the City sets are. I don't know what's changed, unless they're temporarily out of stock already. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Darth Malgus Posted February 5, 2015 Whereabouts did you see the Rebels sets? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Refy L.S. Posted February 6, 2015 Anything in Melbourne yet? Also it's disappointing to not hear anything about Bionicle or TLM yet, I guess they'll be in the second Feb wave. Oh well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Darth Malgus Posted February 8, 2015 Picked up 2 of the 3 new SW sets at Myer Melb CBD yesterday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted February 8, 2015 Picked up 2 of the 3 new SW sets at Myer Melb CBD yesterday. It seems that only three types of SW sets is what Lego has been supplying retailers too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darth Malgus Posted February 8, 2015 Its annoying, was hoping to see everything; still, it's better than nothing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted February 8, 2015 (edited) Its annoying, was hoping to see everything; still, it's better than nothing. True, but we are not the only ones ticked off over it.......the retailers are not happy about it neither. Edited February 8, 2015 by lightningtiger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jonwil Posted February 8, 2015 Yeah I think retailers would be annoyed that they are only getting some of the February releases right now and not the whole lot (i.e. LEGO Movie etc). Anyone know if we will be getting the Shell Ferrari promo sets (the ones that came out in Singapore and parts of Europe last year) alongside the F1 when it hits?

afolaus Posted February 9, 2015 It also appears Superheroes are a no show from all reports. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jonwil Posted February 9, 2015 Superheroes aren't a February release, they are March I think (both DC and Marvel) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darth Malgus Posted February 9, 2015 True, but we are not the only ones ticked off over it.......the retailers are not happy about it neither. I can imagine, just hope it hits later this week or next week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
afolaus Posted February 10, 2015 Superheroes aren't a February release, they are March I think (both DC and Marvel) Yeah you're right I wasn't aware of that. Looks like Disney Princess is the same damn it, why can't they release them the same everywhere? I might have to order the Frozen set from OS to get it in time from a Bday present. Toys R Us online have last years B-Wing $79.99 down to $59.93 and AT-AT $169.99 down to $139.93, decent prices. Specifically says online deal so I don't know if I'd expect those prices in store.
