Aussie sales! Share the news of LOCAL sales!

That's what mine says too with the dispatch estimate July 1. Will be interesting to see how long it takes, but my order is already being prepared and unable to be changed. -

Exactly. Hopefully they deliver these through for such a great price -

They will ship Lego internationally. Only the free shipping applies to books, dvds, etc. http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=11075011 -

It certainly will be something to keep an eye on, particularly if they get the bigger sets in. The price listed was also in pounds, and then their VAT tax is removed as we aren't buying in that country. So I believe it was 110 pounds before freight -

Thanks to DarthSion for the amazon.co.uk tip, as I hadn't used them before. I ordered 2x 8043 Motorised Excavator for $382.64 AU, with express shipping with an estimate of 2-4 days! Very happy indeed -
Post your general LEGO Star Wars questions here
TheDarkness replied to XimenaPaulina's topic in LEGO Star Wars
That isn't worst case scenario, that is basically the scanerio. With Star Wars Lego, almost everything is doubled when compared to the US prices. For Willdog, a good comparison is the death Star Playset. It is $399 US (same as the SSD) but we pay $699 AU. It may come out at $629 AU like the Death Star did when it first came out, but I wouldn't hold my breath. Postage for something that size to be shipped from the States tends to be around $120 US. -

I didn't have any interest in the set beforehand, but I was extremely close to purchasing it. I walked past it three times and looked, and in the end my six year old daughter asked if we could go as all we were doing was looking at lego -

At my local K-Mart, the shuttle is prominently displayed and it looks brilliant. All pristine boxes, it just screams buy me. -
Wow, I really like it. Certainly has an imperial look to it!

I love looking at the dioramas that come up on this site. They continue to amaze me with the stunning detail people put into it. Thanks for sharing!

Well my Mindstorms set finally arrived from BN today, 4 weeks after shipping (note: I paid for the next tier shipping option, so there is no difference at all!) After my complaints of their packaging previously, I must say this one was a much better job. The back of the box was slightly dented, but other than that the set actually fit snugly in the box for once. -

They were also clearing the SW Venator out at $120 at one stage. -
Wow, that reek is absolutely amazing

Big W have had some decent discounts online before, so we can only keep our fingers crossed. -

Have they had issues in the past with people stealing minifigs? -

I wouldn't purchase them in that condition. I purchase alot of sets which I may later resell if I change my mind on the purchase, so my attitude for that is they can go without my dollars. -

That's the date mine was sent, with paid for quicker postage. So hopefully I shall receive it in the next few days. Just was getting concerned when no one was saying theirs had arrived. How was the packaging? -

With 4 weeks nearly approaching since I bought my Mindstorms set from B&N, I have to again ask if anyone has received theirs? -
Ordered another Death Star play set to put aside for later. Thinking of picking up the pod racers set next because I just love the look of it, just depends what price I can get it for

So the next time my wife complains, I just have to show her the other pics in this thread -
Thanks for the awesome review. I'm liking this set more and more each time, and the Wolfpack clones are the highlight for me. The ship itself I am really starting to like, after not being that interested to begin with. Well done!
