    Rather than making a want list of the figs by themselves, I've chosen the figs as "sets", meaning that you get the black plate they stand on, plus instructions, etc. Doing as such, the best price I can get for those from one seller is Ash's Extras for US$56 before shipping. That's about US$3.50 before shipping. Next best was Rolling BrickStone at US$59. I can't seem to generate shipping quotes without committing to an order. Is this another area I'm just not getting it?

    For series 3, I paid A$3.55 ea. at Myer, so I'll likely just stick with retail like I did last time. I'll just buy a truckload, feel them out at home, and return the ones I don't want.
    Try ChromeBricks.
    They only have 15/16 of the minifigures, but they are EUR 32.87 (~AU $45.26) before shipping and based on the weight and postage info on the splash page, it would only be EUR11 (~AU15.14)extr a for postage.

    Works out to be just over $4 a figure. If you can't wait for a sale at Myer it would be worth a shot. Don't know how long until we get Wave 4. At least around me, I see a lot of Wave 3 at a lot of shops.
    Target City had tones of them last time I was there.

    Yeah, thanks for all your help everyone, but I'll just stick to retail.

    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.

    This and all the other up-opened Lego I have is now packed away in tubs in my storage shed.

    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

    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?
