More importantly does it come in yellow? ;)
David Jones has had that for a while now. October I think
TRU now have the 2 Pirate impulse sets (minifig plus accessories) and also the Chef impulse set. $5.
That VW Beetle is nice. I had it given to me as a xmas pressie. Now sits on the coffee table as it's quite ornamental. The build was great. Although there's no steering at all on the wheels and there's a gaping hole behind the back seat. Otherwise very ornamental and yet distinctly Lego in look.
The new farm sets were at Kmart Launceston today, and they had the little red tractor too, which seems to have been hard to spot so far...
Spotted the Farm sets in city Myer yesterday.
Farm, red tractor, the harvester and the Horse trailer were there.
Not actually a new item but I saw 5 x Agents Mission 6 for $149 at Myer.
May I ask up to how much did they went last time when they were on sale at Kmart?
Hi all,
First post, glad to be here :) I've recently started getting back into Technic Lego, awesome stuff still :)!
Cheers,

we just got the Lego Factory - Market Street in at Toyworld Forest Hill.
pretty cool set, I almost put one away for myself...
$129.99.
Darn, I'm tempted but... must... issue restraint!!! :(
Not really a sighting but I briefly overheard one of the Myer (Melbourne city) toy section staff on the phone talking about Lego locomotion train set today. I didn't catch the whole sentence when I walked past but I did clearly hear Lego and train.
Will we be seeing some train sets in the near future at Myer?
Bit of a sale at tru:
Technic hauler: $99
Technic go kart: $29

The sale at Toys R Us finished today, unfortunately!
Snap, there are two Haulers on eBay right now for sale, starting price of $59, Buy It Now for $79 with $8 shipping! That's even cheaper than they were on sale for at TRU! (was $99)

Saw the two pirates $5 sets at Big W, love that the pirate one comes with a fish and snake, while the soldier one comes with lots of weapons. No other pirate sets on the shelves though.
That's been out for a while.... before xmas....
it sells in an impulse display normally with 2 sets from each "theme"..... like the city garbo and policeman with dog etc etc
This may be big, but I found these for sale on ebay:
City Corner
City garage
Space Police
Toyworld Ringwood/Eastland:
7078 - King's Battle Chariot ($30)
7079 - Drawbridge Defense ($70)
10190-1 - Market Street ($130)
With the two new Castle sets you can have a King and a Queen minifig. Also a jester and a gold knight.
Those are terrible retail prices! I'm gonna have to wait it out for the department stores.
Advent Calendar scalpers can't be happy.
Agree MV. I loved the skeleton army. The sets that they had were awesome. Especially the Skeleton's Prison Carriage (7092). That set was a thing of beauty. The Orcs are ok. The Battle Wheel and the Tower Seige were good representations of their personality.
Oh yea. It came with so many, so many many many minifigs for a set its size. That includes the 4 horses too.
I reckon the skelly sets were generally better because skeletons are cheaper to produce, leaving more bricks to be spent on design awesomeness. Skelly horses are especially economical.
I never cared much for skellys due to their lack of poseability. They look badass though. Black skellys are win.
toyword forest hill also has the 2 castle sets. the next TW catalog (july) says these are toyworld exclusives. that can't be right, can it?
also featuring in the catalog, Battle for endor set at a whopping $199.
2nd 2009 lego catalog now out :)
God damnit! Mr Toys Toyworld in Queen St mall in Brisbane City has the Technics Power Functions kit in stock, which they've never ever had before! Not on sale or anything, but there are at least three kits and they are selling for $49.99 which is much cheaper than they are flogged off eBay for, so if you want one, go get it now!
According to the new catalogue, there's one set (Shipwreck Hideout) due for September, the rest in December. Probably because there's too much due out this year as it is (SP3, Agents 2.0, Castle, Power Miners).
Spotted these new Racer sets at Target:
- 8169 Lamborghini Gallardo ($100)
- 8186 Street Extreme ($100, unsure tho)
- 8182 Monster Crushers ($60)
