Friday 13, 25% off, one day deal at the Warehouse; My local Warehouse already had 20% off SW Lego, but nothing from the new range. I want the Wampa, but not for $100. I also want a Bossk and a new Han in Carbonite, I guess I'll need to look on Trademe and bricklink for those.

Other than Bossk's skin colour, these are all beautiful. I do wish they'd make a greeny-yellow, or a mustard or similar. Jabba suffered from the same problem - way too green for my liking.

Two movies to be made based on The Hobbit. Produced by Peter Jackson, but directed this time by Guillermo del Toro. All the info you could want is here; http://www.theonering.net/torwp/hobbitfaq/

My one's in a hundred or so chunks after losing a battle with a cushion one of my kids threw across the lounge a few years back. This review may just have inspired me to rebuild it. Then maybe I can rebuild my AT-AT and my Sail Barge and my...

Warehouse have their ususal 25% voucher off toys if you spend over $20 on Easter Eggs. Now I have to (a) find a warehouse with Endor or Home One and (b) somehow justify to myself that they're worth it, even with 1/4 off the price.

Warehouse "Friends & Family" subscribers should receive an email voucher for 20% off toys (amongst other stuff) for Wed 26 & Thu 27 August.

Another Endor, but she's upped the price to $185. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Toys-models/Lego-...n-233400196.htm

Looks like a Warehouse piece of tape, but it's a huge jump to see that and think it's stolen from somebody's house. She has really good feedback, most likely it was purchased with staff discount and is being on-sold.

Just gotta hope it's not stolen, which is what often comes to mind when people appear to be selling sets at (close to) wholesale prices. Also, I have no idea what you guys are referring to when you only use set numbers to reference LEGO items. Any chance you can also include the set names for us that don't memorise the numbers?

The "midi" Millennium Falcon is in the Warehouse in Lincoln Rd, West Auckland. $69. Not sure if it's been mentioned in this thread yet. I'm not getting it - no figs and I already have the previous, minifig scale MF. No sign of Endor there, unfortunately. Haven't seen new Indy Jones sets except at Farmers. I bought the whole range, but other than the Temple of Doom minifigs, haven't made anything up.

They have Shanghai Chase down to $50 as well, plus a few other IJ discounts. In your Flying Wing set did you get a brown moustached mechanic? Mine was, and I was pleasantly surprised, as I was under the impression it had switched to grey very early on.

Yay Indiana Jones Farmers 30% off, spendup! Ambush in Cairo x2 Cemetery Battle Canal Chase Fighter Plane Attack Temple of Doom All for $329. Some going away for birthday / Xmas etc, but I'm keeping out the 2 Cairos and Temple of Doom.

Wooo! Uhh, what the heck is a Raiders of the Lost Ark Battle Pack?

I will buy Endor (any one know when that's supposed to be coming?), Home One and another Hoth Base. Not buying any prequel or CW sets. Haven't bought the new Vaders Tie - have the old one from the y-wing double pack, so it's not a priority. Though may pick it up at some stage. Also looking forward to the next Indy Jones wave - I will be buying all those, and possibly 2 Mine Cart chases if I can afford it (Hoping they're under $200).

I'm just back from Westgate (West Auckland). I just bought Fight on the Flying Wing from Toyworld for $80 (20% off). They didn't have the latest Clone Wars / Hoth wave at all. Farmers had Y-Wing and Separatist Shuttle - all LEGO (all toys, really) 20% off. Didn't buy anything there. Warehouse had no toy sales, but they had stacks of Echo Bases, so I bought one ($49) which is pretty good for 5 Minifigs plus a Tauntaun. Will probably get a 2nd Hoth Base if I find one on sale so I can have 2 Tauntauns (well, 3 as I already have one of Kaminoan's custom ones.

I'm so glad I've stopped collecting prequel / Clone Wars sets. OT sets only for me now (and Indiana Jones) which is still ridiculously expensive. Wonder if the new Indy sets will be on shelves soon? I still need Jungle Cutter & Flying Wing from the previous assortments, so these sales over the long weekend could be a godsend.

Yeah, that blue thing pictured was a nemoidian shuttle. And sorry, can't remember the rolling tank price at all, given the size of the box, probably around $45-$50, but that's just guesswork.

Warehouse in West City Mall (west auckland) has the new Clones with Snail Tread Tank thing (sorry, forget the proper name). The packaging has inset photos has the CW Y-Wing, Hoth and some ugly blue thing that looks like a Coruscant taxi but is no doubt a Clone Wars set, but those sets weren't to be seen. What else is showing up? Any Indy?

Discontinued Star Wars? What the hell are you on about?

Spend $15 on Easter Eggs at The Warehouse and get a 25% off Toys voucher for use on your next visit.

15% off LEGO at Kmart from tomorrow. Catalogue here: http://tinyurl.com/cb3b67

Thanks Sam! I was thinking of doing this myself here at Eurobricks once FBTB changed the rules to stop the really handy thread we had there. I don't understand their logic at all. Thanks for the Jungle Cutter tip-off, I still have to get that set from the Crystal Skull series. Let me know if you see the new Shanghai Chase or Flying Wing on sale, I really want those sets, but full price is ridiculous.

If you're all talking about this, it's preliminary (German has Patrick from Spongebob's torso - 3 nipples! Plus the cockpit uses the Jedi Starfighter paintjob) Full size
