Has anyone seen Lego Star Wars Kashyyyk Trooper Battle Packs in NSW/ACT (preferably around Wagga and areas around there)
Phasma and Kylo Ren Contraction sets are out in south east Queensland Mr Toys stores
New battle packs and force awakens x-wing and snow transporter micro fighters available at Kmart.
are the other new force awakens sets out? there's supposed to be a battle at maz's and a resistance transport as well I think.Quote:

TRU Penrith had a couple of bathe new force awakens battle packs and a light smattering of last years stock on otherwise very depleted shelves. No big sets either, all the tags (none on shelves anymore it seems, a good idea) said out of stock.
Don't even get me started on this issue... at least when Hasbro muck up their distribution it is somewhat of a mistake, whereas LEGO seems to do it intentionally, and repeatedly does so.Quote:

I only use the LEGO online store when I get free shipping (as their VIP system is okay, better than TRU), as they charge by price (bad #1), the express option is ridiculously priced (bad #2) and it's so so so slow (bad #3). It takes 7-10 days for my BBTS orders to arrive, LEGO always takes double that.
But it's the only way I can get the LEGO IDEAS sets :/
*rant over*
Yeah, they have been spotted in Kmart in VIC a few days ago.Quote:

Did they also have the Hoth Attack, Obi-Wan's Jedi Interceptor and the new Homing Spider Droid sets?Quote:

Marvel isn't until March I think. Star Wars now, yes. Though yet to see any in Perth as yet.:confused:Quote:

They are based on the Disney Channel cartoons, not the MCU. but hey it's Marvel Lego so I'm going to buy it.Quote:

Toyworld Macgregor has the new sets as well.
Target had the ninjago hidden island for 75 and a few of the smaller sets wouldn't scan. Had the Star Wars battle packs for $19 but no other new sets... Yet. No new city sets either.
Reality hoping to see some next knights sets soon, they look to haves one very interesting pieces and ideas.
Not a sighting but is $93 Aus shipped from America a good proce for a loose complete unassembled 2005 Lego Star Wars ARC 170?
Nexo Knights now showing up in stores. I was walking around Garden City today. Myer, Kmart, and Big W all had displays on ends. The Fortrex was assembled and in a display box, looks big. I spotted the new Friends adventure camp sets at Target, the big tree adventure playground set scanned at $99. Looks like it would be great put on display, and would probably work well with a bunch of children minifigures instead of the dolls.
I was down at Big W today and noticed what looked some new Super Hero Lego sets specifically Batman ones. I didn't grab any prices or set numbers they were not massive sets just medium size ones and I just had a quick look through both Lego Australia and Big W online catalog and they didn't appear to show up. They may well so in the next few days.
Yup, batman vs superman sets and neck knights have arrived within weeks of the 2016 Star Wars, city and ninjago lines.
A month later than Europe is better than usual, and it seems that we are getting some lines before he USA (Star Wars in particular)
Anyone seen the two new Lego Marvel sets in the wild at all? I'm trying to avoid buying them from shop.lego.com.
MarchQuote:

This set is part of the Star Wars Winter Wave 2016, but no one has seen it in stores as far as I know. Is there any other way too get this other then the Lego Shop? Thanks

Doesn't appear to be in the 2016 printed catalogue.Quote:

Myer had 4 new marvel sets.
The quinjet with thanos
Black panther set
Crossbones
And red skull
No antman set tho
I've seen the new bionicle sets at a few Myers, including Carousel shopping centre.
Ok, so why thew hell have these sets I'm after been available since December on Lego's official web store but seem to only now be showing up at retail? I would have ordered them from shop.logo.com by now but with a stupid expensive $35 shipping fee I have been searching from them at retail instead. I even looked on ebay and they were available there but at a huge mark up.
Both the Avengers Assemble sets from December and the new Cival War sets better show up at Big W soon or I'm going to be even more pissed off than I am now.:mad:
Was surprised to see the Super Heroes Micro Racers in stores before the end of February. They were scheduled for March according to the 2016 catalogue. Some stores appear to get new sets in much earlier than others. K-mart is normally one of the first.
Big W finally has all the Lego Marvel sets now except for one of the little vs sets, they only have 2 of them, missing Hulk vs Ultron.
So does anyone know why the two Avangers sets were available last December on shop.lego.com yet they have only now hit stores? Still kinda mad at Lego that they would have them available on their store but not in other stores.
