Spotted them round town too. Kmarts, Targets and a Toy World.
I was suprised to see them. I had said I didn't think we're see them for ages. There are so many wave 3 figues still around and I don't imagine them going anywhere soon.
Perhaps they tried to bring out some renewed interest in the series.
Got the whole series from Target because they had them from $4.95 down to $3.95 while they have their sale. Also got the Baseballer from series 3 to finish that series too.
Picked up the new LEGO City Space Sets from the Myer and Target Sales over the last few days.

Some more Lego

This and all the other up-opened Lego I have is now packed away in tubs in my storage shed.
I couldn't move in my room without tripping over Lego ;)

City Space Shuttle and Astronaut/Rover + 8 packs of Series 4 (last that the store had) thanks to Warehouse and the 30% off sale.
Ended up with Punk, Werewolf, Paint, Gesiha and a few spares
Thanks to the 30% of regular items and 50% off clearance sale, I got more Lego at the Warehouse

Picked up Radiator Springs Lightning McQueen and Classic Mater from Target. Nice little sets. Now i'm just waiting for Big W to release the Ultimate Build Mater and McQueen this Wednesday.

Do those cars have sticker eyes, or are they actually printed onto the bricks themselves?
Printed bricks. I think LEGO made a good descision not going with stickers, as this theme is aimed at kids (more so than other themes) and stickers would have became a mess all over the sets.Quote:

Picked up Ultimate Build Lightning McQueen from Big W today. I was hoping they would have Mater in stock but haven't seen him anywhere. I'm guessing that set will be released later in the year.
The McQueen set is actually pretty good. I've read a lot of complaints about the price/piece ratio, but there's some nice pieces in there and a good mix of colours. The model is nice and solid, although with a few gaps, but really captures the character. Can't wait for Ultimate Build Mater now, and i hope they make a Doc, Sheriff, Fillmore and Flo.
I give the set 8.5/10.
It's like one of those stories you see on TV: man goes into kmart looking for generations, fails but happens upon a giant lego head he was hunting half a year ago. :rolleyes:

Man I've wanted one of them for a while.Quote:

Man i remember seeing heaps of those at my local Kmart relatively recently.
It works about as well as it looks. I honestly would have preferred an empty tub to just store bricks en masse. :rolleyes:Quote:

They were first sighted at Big W just before Xmas and then at Kmarts not long after but they were very sought after and numbers seemed to have been limited. Perhaps they're bringing them out of cold storage recently? The shelf was pricetagged but the space allocated could have fit 2 of these at the mostQuote:

I'm having fun deciding what set to pull the trigger on next. Looks more and more likely that it will be an imported one what with local prices and all...
Good taste she has in gift selection. :pQuote:

Waiting for more SALEs before I slowly get the others. 8 sets to collect. *faintz*.
Picked these up from the Art of the Brick exhibition at Fed Square.

Has no one else have LEGO acquis lately? :o
Here's more of mine from Myer's Toy Sale.

Got to Myer last night and was crushed that they were all out of the new Millenium Falcon :(
Looks like those "bogans" can afford this stuff after all :pQuote:

Is that out yet? Cause I vaguely remember seeing something on the LEGO news letter that it was coming to Myer in July or something. Or I might have mixed it up.Quote:

The light house I got was also out of stock on the shelves and the nice sales gal went to the back of the store to get one out for me.
Yes, I saw a few before the sale, and the lady said she put out three that morning.Quote:

If yes, I'll keep a lookout for it when I go to Myer again tonight. But probably have to get STL or someone to get it for you first?
That's the one. Thanks. I've already gotten Krayt and STL on the job.
No worries, I'll text STL if I see it. :)Quote:

Who had Imperial Flagships? Myer? The Big one?
Sorry. I know what you mean now. Initially I misread it as Imperial Shuttle.
Can't stop thinking about it huh?Quote:

Same thing. Bogans beat you to whatever you wanted. Sad day.Quote:

A few nice Lego offerings that I'm kind've interested in but unsure.
Did you get the Tower Bridge from Highpoint?
Coz I was after one of those.
I picked it up at Doncaster yesterday. Didn't see one today but certainly didn't look for it.Quote:

YAY! Got me a Falcon!!! :D
Huge thanks to JuzMel and STL for trying to help out!
Alright. I just begrudgingly dropped $225 towards that stupid Imperial Shuttle (they're on the shelves here). Dumb, stupid, expensive shuttle. :mad:
Got this baby last night, put it together today.
Favorite Star Wars starfighter.

Just picked up the 10231 Shuttle Expedition from Kmart. There were about a dozen on Saturday, but come monday there was only one left. I made it mine.
