Predictions are great, but what happens when Australia has the Recession we apparently avoided? The Dollar will drop faster than you can believe, or possibly another disaster, so many things can effect the strength of the dollar so I wouldn't be gambling on it. The only reason to wait a couple of months would be for the same reason why waiting for Toy Story sets was smart, the movie will end and they will want to get rid of excess stock at huge discounts! But that itself is a risk.

Did you expect any less from Toys R Us? I certainly didn't, they are useless, their sales are useless & their service is useless. I was given a $5 voucher for completing a survey for them, I went in & decided to grab the $4.99 Traveller & was told they won't do it. I offered to have them charge me the extra 1 cent & they wouldn't. I threw the voucher out on my way out the door! Maybe I was asking too much, but seriously, customer service should prevail!

It actually excludes LEGO Games & Ninjago.

I thank you all for your concern, but seriously, would you go into a Woolworths and tell them that no one will buy their tomatoes because you can buy it from a fruit shop in the city for cheaper? No! I'm quite aware of what I am offering & I'm not trying to rip someone off, or force someone to purchase it, I am simply putting it out there for anyone who might be interested. If no one wants to buy it at that price, then it's my problem & no one elses. Thanks again. Guf I'm sorry that you are so offended by me putting a price on something. I will go and have a good long hard look at myself. Since when does sales mean I have to sell something at the price I paid for it, or at a particular price to what someone else thinks I should sell it for? I'm afraid you have the wrong person, my ebay username is the same as my forum name. So before you start accusing someone of something on a public forum, perhaps you should get your facts & figures straight. I have seen people use that style of auction previously, you are not the only one. I do remember your ebay sales for S3, but again, you weren't the only one selling in this way.

That's ok, the option is there. I will sell these other ways, just putting the option out there. You will receive mine sooner with less risk.

I have received my stock of the Commuter Jet 7696 Airline exclusive. If you want one I will sell them for $45 each plus postage of $5. Currently eBay has them at $59.50 with $6.50 postage. PM me if your interested. My Series 4 Minifigures have landed in Australia, so they should be here in the next few days. There will be some spares, but sets are $95 each plus $5 postage if your interested. Only 2 sets available at this stage because of the low amount of Scientists in the box's. Guf

Hi, I have for Trade the following, all sealed unless otherwise stated - HAVES Series 1 Ask as I probably have it. (All Sealed) Series 2 Ask as I probably have it. (All Sealed) Series 5 Ask as I probably have it. (All Opened) WANTS Series 3 3 x Gorilla Suit Guy (Sealed) Series 5 1 x Boxer (MUST BE SEALED) I am based in Sydney NSW Australia, I am happy to trade or buy from anyone worldwide if I can get a Sealed in the Pack Boxer from Series 5. This MUST be Guaranteed. This is the only Figure of all 5 Series that I do not have in a sealed pack, so I'm pretty desperate for it.

Hey, that's a really nice MOC. It reminds me a little of my old local train station in the Blue Mountains. You've inspired me to work on one based on that. Well done!

Hi Everyone I am trying to win a competition to visit Norfolk Island. I am desperate to visit this place so, if you have a facebook account, would you PLEASE click "LIKE" on my entry on the facebook page I have linked below. Please Click "Like" on my entry I have just realised that you have to "Like" the page before it allows you to "Like" my entry (or wall post). I really appreciate your support. Thanks Gareth Andrews

For anyone who is interested, I may have a few of the Commuter Jet 7696 Airline exclusive in the coming weeks. I'll be putting them on Ebay, but for anyone interested I'll sell them for $45 each plus postage (I'm guessing about $5 should cover that). I'll be putting them a bit higher on Ebay to cover costs. PM me if your interested & I'll keep you informed. Guf

Here is my very average attempt, sorry it's late & I used whatever I had on my dining table. Atleast I'm in the raffle :D

Thanks guys for the information, great tips!!

Great! Thanks for the quick reply, I knew the question must have been asked before, but finding answers through the search function never seems to yield anything for me. Thanks again

Hi there, I have been looking on Lego Shop @ Home & noticed they use the colour names Dark Stone Grey & Medium Ston Grey. I believe these are the same as the Dark Bluish Grey & Light Bluish Grey however I'm just guessing & I was hoping that someone could confirm my suspicions. These "Stone" colours aren't mentioned as a colour on Bricklink. I'd like to be sure I'm getting the same colour when I place my order the Shop @ Home. My apologies if this has come up previously, which I'm sure it has (maybe a few years ago), I just can't find a thread about it. Thanks.. Guf

I've had one of these Box 4 Blox for I'd say close to 20 years. It's brilliant and would definitely recommend it. I unfortunately cracked one of the trays a few weeks ago, I had too much LEGO in it at the time and the tray slipped out of my hands. Otherwise they are well built & should last you just as long as mine & probably a lot longer. Mine still looks as good as new otherwise :D

Does the status come up once you have ordered? or have they emailed you after you have purchased and had it all confirmed? I have 3 vouchers ready to use, but don't want to stuff around with ringing them.

What did you order? it may be that they have had a lot of people ordering LEGO sets and have sold out of something?!?

These High Res photos are great. I don't remember seeing these for the previous 3 series? Does anyone know if there were any & where I can see them?

Thanks, the complaining was getting a bit tiring. Name dropping much? LOL

So you can confirm the $4.99 price of the Series 3?

I'm pretty sure that's illegal. It's surely violating anti competitive laws or something. If it's the store owners decision, then it might be ok, but even that I have a feeling I heard somewhere you can't do it.

This thread seems to be getting out of control, I vote we stop arguing about how the series should be packed or distributed or how people should buy them and start talking about who's seen them, what they are like, what quantities of each figure are in the box etc.

Dates: Start - 12th November 2010. Deadline - 1st January 2011. Results - 11th January 2011. Not sure how you missed it?

Did the Medieval Market Place look like it was one found out the back? Or do you think this might be re-released into Target? maybe someone else might know. I answered my own question, you got the last one in QLD, but not the last one in the country. I think there is a couple floating around in a couple of Victorian Stores.

For those who missed out on the Farm Set on clearance at Kmart, Toys R Us are clearing them out now at $69. From memory Kmart was $65, so not a lot different. There were some other sets on clearance, a few sets half price, but I can't remember what.
