Lego Store Exclusives for 2009

I got my quarterly Lego Club material a few days ago including the new 09 catalog, but the juiciest tidbit for me was back of the A4 mailing label sheet which has the "Lego Bulletin Board" listing the exclusives for the rest of the year (and my wish has been granted!!!!)

Kmart (Available in July!)
10188 Star Wars Death Star (WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!)
10195 Star Wars Republic Dropship with AT-OT Walker (WOW!)

Myer
10189 Taj Mahal (WOW!)
5635 Big City Zoo
5489 Vehicle Building Set

Toyworld
8038 The Battle of Endor (WOW! - but ridiculously expensive :()
6187 Road Construction Set
7751 Ahsoka's Starfighter and Vulture Droid

Toys R Us (boring... already on clearance)

7681 Star Wars Separatist Spider Droid

Target
3833 Sponge Bob Krusty Adventures
3834 Sponge Bob Good Neighbors at Bikini Bottom (They're calling you Trunks)

Will these all be available in July or does that just pertain to the Kmart stuff?

Calling me via the gf and her "subtle" hints! :p I will do my best to get these myself this time around! :D

Death Star I would be all over but it'll be too bloody expensive to even think about.

Taj Mahal is another I'll think about getting.

July was mentioned both for Kmart and Target, none of the others.

I, too, will be laybying the Death Star!

*Mr_K puts himself down for 1 Death Star!

Yeah ya might want to wait till kmart do 20% lego before getting that beast

The Death Star will be part of the Kmart July Sale ;-)

Got mine from Lego.com shop back in January. :p

Myer City already has the Taj Mahal for $499 (if memory serves me right)

Also had the Eiffel Tower for $350 or so

For the Cafe Corner fans out there, a new Legoshop exclusive set:

I am so tempted to get Cafe Corner, Green Grocer and Market Street just so I can add the Fire Station to it. Must resist temptation......

I've got to stop looking in these threads, That firehouse is fantastic, but thankfully if I never see it in the stores, I'll never buy it...

Hah, I tell myself the same thing every day... :p

that fire station is stunning.
How much and give it to me

Sadly the battle packs will likely be sorely overpriced.

I need me the other two giant City bloke buildings. I can see where this is going in years to come. It'll be a frickin' awesome set to have.

More pics of the Firestation - top floor and the roof. Notice the little ping pong table? :) Release date is September 1st and will cost $149.99 US.

Damn... just saw the market street the other day and now this! I'm tempted to get Cafe Corner and Green Grocer now... but no $$$ :(

That is absolutely brilliant! Excellent details.

heya guys, i dont usually post about lego but i was in miranda myer tonight and they had the taj mahal and eiffel tower lego sets, they were around 300 or 400 though. hope that helps =]

Kmart has their catalogue up for their sale. The Death Star is $600 -> too rich for my blood. The Taj Mahal is only $400 at Myers and contains almost double the amount of pieces so I was expecting the Death Star to be about $400 since it was the Star Wars licence but $600 is just way too much in my opinion.

Saw the Death Star in Kmart today. Its one hell of a big box.

Yeah, I saw at my local as well. When I was in America, I saw it next to the Falcon, and I'm relatively certain the two boxes are the same dimensions.

There must be a lot of space left in that box.

Agreed

Looks like each of the retailers have an "exclusive" line too this mid year sale:

BigW: Space Police
K-Mart: City Lego
Target: Pirates

I gotta go all over the place :(
