Lego Sightings

Myer Doncaster had the Slave-1 set on Wednesday.

Spotted the new Harry Potter sets in Westpoint Target today. Didn't even bother scanning their prices & I was too busy checking out all the new pieces in the new Friends sets (there's a new seaweed piece, new coral marine creatures, new green statues/toy soldiers in that Toy Story set... Heh!)

No Hidden Side sets in my local big w stores. I think they may be hiding them out the back until after the 20% off sale ends next week.

Spotted a couple of new Ideas sets in the wild today. Westpoint Blacktown Myer had a few Steamboat Willie sets for $129 while the nearby Toymate had a few of the Flintstones sets on the wall behind the counter.

On another note, Westpoint Blacktown has finally re-opened the vast majority of their carpark something like a year after half of it was blocked-off due to cracks in the 48 year old carpark (the council's website says that Westpoint first opened its doors in 1971). After 12 months of parking chaos, I feel bad for the business owners who despite losing a tonne of customers - greedy centre management still forced them to pay full-rent. No wonder there's so many "For Lease" signs...

So anyone have any idea if the Force Friday sets will be available here tomorrow? I got an email from EB/Zing but there is no way I am paying their price for anything Lego related. I am really hoping that Target has them on shelves tomorrow as they still have a general 20% off lego sale...

I saw a Y-wing from the new movie at a Lego Store today (if that’s useful info?)

It?s a bit funny that the Lego store broke their own release date! I figured that stores will have stock but none of the main retailers seem to be doing any real promotions for tomorrow. Ah well, I?ll just have to toddle down to my local target and hope they have sets on shelves! If not and they don?t restock till after the 20% off sale, I?ll wait for the next sale from whoever has one!
