  1. 1) Those were always the prices for those sets since they came out 2) TW has always been like that. Come'on, what company can make a cent selling at RRP if they only sell toys! Just look at TRU, they alway's mark stuff up. Anyway, i picked up an endor today from toyworld tower junction. Used my voucher to get it down to $200. I must say - really nice set!
  2. Oh i hope so. I might go have a wee look see today. If i can convince them to give me 50% off endor i'll probably get like, 4. LOL... Well, One can dream can't he?
  3. Linky Anyone think they'll have Endor in for the sale? I hope so
  4. Well, i'm not into CW, but nor do i have any CW stuff for trade I just got e-mailed a votcher for 20-50% off at TW. I hope they have some good deals
  5. Whoops sorry Done it now. I Can't wait to see endor on sale... Might have to pick up a couple if they go cheap somewhere...
  6. I've get them both. Yeah, they're a similar scale. I'll do pics and measurements tonight.
  7. Hey guys. Sorry for the double post, but IQ toy's Austrailia has some of the new sets availible for you fella's to order They have pirates, new city, new SW... just missing new indy So will you stop complaining now?
  8. Well, I'm not so much saying i don't like figs, as i love 'em. It's just that i don't understand why they seem to get the royal treatment. I want a chromed out naboo crusier ...Shutup! Well, that because of a few factors. 1. I don't do many MOC's. 2. I don't usually feel my MOCs are great so i don't post 'em here (unless it's for a contest). 3. I don't have heaps of peices to MOC with, as i like to keep my sets made up. And i don't like buying from bricklink because there's so much i want it add's up too fast
  9. OK, well more recently, as this site has been getting bigger in the recent years, I've noticed that there is something about star wars fig's that everyone is obsessed with. This is Lego, not Hasbro. We are about Building things. I simply don't get it to say the least. People buy sets just for the figs. To an extent, I understand. I know sometimes lego just doesn't include enough figs in a set. But figs aren't what lego is about. Figs aren't the point of lego. Figs are that little extra on the side. That make sets extra nice. They are nice for completing scenes, but there is a big fuss about them i don't get. Why are they so important? Please, someone give me a good answer, because to me, Lego is about building stuff, making ships and places and building. Yes, figs are a part of that, but thay are not the main part. Comment's like "I'll buy that set, just for the figs" make sence when it's a battlepack, but for other stuf... what the heck? Normal lego building FTW I say!
  10. I voted: Below average. It just doesn't fit in. Vader was black, OK, 3PO was gold, sweet, but when the heck did we see silver stormies? Thats right, NEVER. I really don't like the way they're doing all these chrome figs, It was nice for 3PO, as a new nice wee extra. Vader was alright i guess, but i would have prefured R2-D2, but a silver stormie is just stupid (IMO). I'll get one, but i hope i won't have to pay the earth for it. Where did anyone get the idea these are at lego stores? As far as i know this is only at Legoland CA for the star wars weekend... None have ever been spotted at stores (yet).
  11. I was never going to stop, Just prehaps think twice. But since, i have realized thinking is for idiots!
  12. I got 4 7654 Battlebacks, MISB for $20NZ each And a Ambush in cario indy set for $17.50
  13. After all this threadcrapping, I feel a nice happy birthday is needed... So Happy Birthday! I hope you have a great day...
  14. Well, I have. Back to full on collecting i go! (Poor back account )
  15. I'm actully quite looking forward to the book. Thankas for finding the proper pic. The fig is excellent too! Now i just hope it actully has some decent stuff and info in it. I know Jeremy wrote some of it. But lets just say that didn't exactly boost my confidence (kidding, kidding.... ) Man... I'm dying waiting out for pics of the Red Bull Racer Rebel Blockade Runner
  16. You should! As far as i know half the people in Aus are kiwi's anyway! If anyone can pay via paypal, I'm more than happy to help out. However, there's no sales at the mo so The shops near me have Star Wars: Echo Base - $50 Courpate Alliance droid - $50 Separatist shuttle - $70 CW Y-wing - $140 Ventor - $300 Indy: Canal chase - $70ish? Not sure on that one City: Sports car - $18 Tow Truck - $25 Camper Van - $35 Helicopter truck - $80ish City Corner - $100 That's all i can remeber as of yet. But if you want anything else specificly LMK, I'll look out for it. (all prices are in NZ$)
  17. Going... Going... Gone! to gogglev Congrats!
  18. That sad.... Oh well, it's not like i have any money at the moment anyway Oh... thanks for the heads up! Still no endor's then?
  19. Wow... Good luck. I personally don't know any way of overseas payent methods other that those you've ruled out. Also, 4899 promo tractor's were only availible for about a month, and you can't get them any more. Also, that's a lot of work youre asking of someone... you may want to make it worth their while.... I'd be more than willing to help, but i can only accept palpal, and i have no 4899's left.
  20. Quoted from the Aussie sales thread. If last year is anything to go buy, then K-mart NZ and K-mart AU have the same sets in their big toy sale. I'm looking forward to the death star! Hopefully they'll have is discounted too (they had $200 off the falcon last year)
  21. ... So is it chrome silver? Or gold or black or I'm still coming to terms with it. I just don't want the specialty of the whole chroming thing to go down the drain by over doing it. This fig has confused my poor brain. I's like it if it were chrome white I just... have no idea what this is.
  22. That's... Different It looks weird IMO. I'll have to check it out more. Yay! Another backround card to make! Wonder if/how/where it'll be released...
  23. I'm more that happy to if your serious, it's just that postage can be a lot. If you don't need the boxes and you do big lots at a time that could work out great! PM me if you're intrested.
  24. Really? It's $100NZ over here, and farmers (NZ department store) has 30% off if you buy 3 or more sets. Is any new Star wars over in aussie yet? It should be. It's availible over here in NZ for $180...
  25. Woah congrats! Apparently NZ is the first in the world with new Indy... Cool! I got one Ambush in cario set. Thats al they had. Wait, no, they had the Canal chase, but on the hole, i don't buy indy, i just wanted a few cario's for the awsome figs and tan barrels ect!
