    Nah, that was the last one. It'd been sitting at Greensy for a few months now. (ever since Fungal helped Jaydisc and me get Golden Guardian and Bridgewalker). I'd passed on it b/c it seemed pretty average and not really a mech but I couldn't resist at that price point either.

    Great prices on those sets. Especially the Speed Racer sets. Blame the movie flopping at the cinemas for that eventhough it was actually a pretty good film. Have never actually gotten the Sonic Phantom for the fact that it's just a flying vehicle. Although it is a very large craft. The box deceptively makes it look small.

    Bugger, I'll check out a couple of Targets tomorrow, maybe they are clearing them out in a few places... Yeah, it's not great, but any Lego on clearance is usually worth it for the parts

    Just so u don't waste time, none at Target Broadmeadows, Epping, Reservoir, Greensy, Chadstone, the Pines, Eastland/Ringwood, Fountain Gate and Forest Hill. I haven't been to all those that recently but when I was on a massive road trip around Melb hunting for 8103, none of those had them.

    Haha yeah well you pretty much just crossed off the 4 closest to me that I was gonna check out in the first 4 that you mentioned.. What I meant to say was, they might be clearing out more Lego, not just that particular set, so I'll check them out for any sets that may be cheap

    90& of the time its cos I don't trust the staff at these places and more than once I've been right. Plus, a bit of hunting never hurts. Well it did when petrol was $1.60 but not anymore but I haven;t had such a hunt for over a month now but that's just gonna have to change

    I assume those services will be "essential" when that big insect walker lays waste to downtown?
