    Given that your objective is to extend Helm's Deep with only Mines of Moria parts, I think you did get a great job :-)

    Thank you very much for the recommendation 'hjmediastudios', glad to see I wasn't the only person to notice this Also this has been a fantastic and very detailed set review by 'KielDaMan' which helps me decide to buy this set in the first place.

    I have found a problem with the white horse in my set. It seems like every time I move it around, its head seemed to rattle. I compared this to the brown horses from my Lord of Rings sets and their heads were more fixed in place. Have anyone else come across this issue?

    For those who have ordered Big W's Mines of Moria online deal, mine arrived this morning :-) much quicker than I thought!

    Thank you very much guys for alerting us to this awesome deal! Rang up and only had to mention Lego deal on their front page, the lady on the phone knew straight away what I was after. Order myself a set and eagerly wait for its arrival :-)

    I didn't get to Brickvention this year but my friends went (as one would when u have a Lego fanatic as a friend :P) They thoroughly enjoyed the event and thought it was in a good location. Best thing is I think they all grew to love and appreciate Lego that much more. Thank you very much to the event organisers!

    Finally got a Forest Maiden! My friend bought me two bags that she randomly picked - one was the Cyclops and the other the Forest Maiden. Maybe the trick is not to look too hard and just plain luck :P

    I got them (turtle & squirrel) for $5 each at Kmart in VIC, great little sets I love them! I've been waiting for this as well :-( Thanks lightningtiger, I wish we have a Toy Corner in VIC. I have shop online with them and was happy with their customer service.

    I agree on the rarity of Forest Maiden. I went through three opened boxes today - found none of her. I want just one to stand next to my poor lonely Forest Man :P I did find the fortune teller and the actress which I was after.

    I haven't bought any Friends sets before but today I spotted the Lego Friends Animals Series 1 in the shop so I bought the turtle and the squirrel. I'm glad I did, they're both very cute and also affordable! I look forward to Series 2, especially the hedgehog.

    Wow that's a great deal for the Town Hall 'glendo' Based on jonwil's report of Town Hall also appearing at DJ in Perth, I gave it another try at DJ Melbourne CBD. This morning, I rang up and got a wonderful sales person who knew exactly what I was talking about and told me they have got in the Town Hall and put one aside for me. I went to pick it up at lunch, and yes it was full price, but I have put money aside for it DJ Melbourne CBD now have all the Grand Emporium, Pet Store and also Town Hall on the shelf.

    It was a couple of weeks ago actually, 5887 Dino Defense HQ is now in my possession..... Lego + Dinosaurs (though I really don't know how it's going to fit in with the other sets....ah wellllllllll)

    Thank you very much for the info 'Notorious Guf' Well I did went to DJ Melbourne CBD at lunch. Sadly (as per past experiences), the sales person has no idea what I was talking about and no modular set on display either. The last time I managed to get the Grand Emporium I had to drive all the way to Chadstone (aka the burb). Hmmm......it's looking like I should be getting the Town Hall..... I wish TLG gives the modular building exclusive to Myer instead, at least they are well-stocked most of the time....
  14. chibi_joker
    Thank you very much 'slopemodified' for the free shipping news for shop@home :-) I now am in a dilemma....I am tossing up between the Town Hall modular versus the Haunted House and can only get one set at this stage so I will try to get the one that might be of limited availability here. Is there any news about which store might get either set as exclusive? I'm thinking the Town Hall will go to DJ, which in the past has been ridiculous about the amount of stock they end up with. Many thanks!

    Thank you for the info lightningtiger I do think it's quite lovely too and can definitely see it in my little town, but the price is putting me off a bit (I thought it would be the same as S@H).
  16. chibi_joker
    Hi guys, Is the City House (8403) a Toyworld exclusive? I saw one today, what's with the price hike Toyworld? I'm still on my quest to buy that Grand Emporium!
  17. chibi_joker
    Thanks jamonlego. I'm still after a Grand Emporium...but in Victoria. Has anyone seen one around or did Victoria miss out all together?
  18. chibi_joker
    Has anyone spot the Grand Emporium at DJ anywhere in Victoria? DJ Melbourne CBD has none and the girl at the counter has no idea what I was talking about

    Thanks for the update Bryan That's good that they got more Series 1 minifigs in so ppl will get a chance to finish their collection.
  20. chibi_joker
    Hi Bryan, does this inlcude the impulse sets as well. I'm still after the Jester Got off work too late tonight and Target already closed
  21. chibi_joker
    Just my luck, I was at Target CBD lunchtime yesterday and they weren't there I do have a complete set so I hope other AFOLs will now have the opportunity to complete their sets. So busy with work, Lego is getting neglected..... Ah well, I'm really looking forward to Series 2
  22. chibi_joker
    Waaah, sorry Whup! Yes I'm really happy to get it. My idea is the same, addition to my Pirates collection! I bidded on a MISB one last year when I first got into Lego and didn't realize how much they sell for (didn't know about Bricklink then). I forgot to check eBay and someone won it for $20...lucky lucky. Hope another one will pop up on eBay soon for you. I also bid on the Dragon Fortress but got outbidded at the last minute - I think I'm really going to regret it since it's MISB too but the price was getting out of my budget. Yeah, that price I would get Brickbeard Bounty too!

    Yep, looks like these sets are available in TRU around Victoria. I picked up both wizard and farmer impulses from Highpoint last week (race there after work!) thanks to sms from my equally Lego-mad friend who picked them up from his local TRU. No jester impulse set though In other news, over the weekend I went to pick up the Lego Orient Expedition Emperor's Ship MISB I won on eBAY!
  24. chibi_joker
    Same here! I can't find any of these clearance sales in Melbourne. No wind turbines at the two Big W I visited today. I got the pig farm anyway, could not resist the piggies. Sorry, did not get to read the post earlier but will give you a shout if Enforcer is spotted. Kmart was better, got the XXL Box and some of the fire set.
  25. chibi_joker
    Thanks guys for the news on the Grand Emporium Lucky I work a block from DJ CBD so I can pop in and check later in the year. jonwil, hmmmm...I kind of thought some of the latest impulse packs sold well like the traveller, I simply could not find that at several stores. Finally my friend pointed me to Target CBD to get more. Yeah, it would be bad news, I was really looking forward to those sets especially since I missed out on the jester and the wizard from the previous Fantasy Era Castle sets. And all the piggies!
