    Pretty sure that's still well and truly shelf warming at our TRU. I'll keep you updated if you like. I know postage might suck with the box, but putting the bags in a pre paid satchel could be a viable option.
    I still function.....................while killing threads. ;-)

    Anyone know if there are any Ninjago City Sets still around at a store in NSW? The closer to Newie the better, but I can make a trip if required.

    Thanks for the offer Jits, unfortunately like you said postage still kinda offsets the discount so hopefully if they increase the discount and they still have them I will most likely take you up on your offer. Thanks again

    My local TRU has boxes and boxes of Lego Batman and Ninjago minifigure blind bags, still a tad over $4 each. My kids love them, so I’m waiting for them to drop a bit more ($2-3) before I go a bit nuts. They’ve all been out quite a while so I hope that stock lasts that long (so far so good) as collectors that really want them already have them.

    TRU closing tomorrow. May have no more time to wait. Lego shelf has been cleaned in Hornsby.

    All of them? Or just some?

    Pretty sure it's just some of them, if you check the website the Hornsby store jazzcomp mentioned doesnt have trading hours past tomorrow but others do.

    EDIT: I was bored, here are the stores that dont have trading hours listed past tomorrow:

    Hornsby NSW
    Northland VIC
    Noarlunga SA
    Tea Tree SA
    Innaloo WA
    Joondalup WA
    Morley WA

    So we can probably safely assume it's the last day of trading for those locations.
    The rest have times listed for the next week at least, so check the website for more details about the store you want to visit

    Yeah, that was what I thought. The stores (such as Northland here in Vic) had signs up saying they were closing this week, but others (such as Fountain Gate) have yet to even implement the 40% off, so I think they’re still going around for a while yet. Plenty of stock still at that location they will be trying to get rid of.
