Star Wars 2013

I couldn't find a thread talking about this, so I thought it would be good to start one. Especially with people talking that the winter catalog will soon be released. Over on the rebelscum site, it was stated by someone "in the know" that one of the new Star Wars sets will be made from thi...

Re: [USA] Wal-Mart Clearance

In KY today, I found the new spiderman set. They also had Malvolence and Pre Vizla's ship, both of which I hadn't seen yet. Picked up the spiderman set but I'm patient to find a deal for the others. I've been really tempted to pick up some of the clearanced sets, esp the falcon for $99. The batcave ...

Re: Which Star Wars Sets are going to be Discountinued soon?

I personally think the sets you mentioned will continue to be around for a while. How long? Well, that is the question. I don't think they will be gone before the end of the year but I could definitely be wrong. Sets hang around at TRU even after they've been completely discontinued. I was just gett...

Re: [Technic] 9396 & 9398 HQ

Got the crawler for $160 plus tax at TRU this past weekend, using a 20% off coupon. I can't wait to build it. However, it is technically for my son, so I've got to wait :-(

Re: TRU Rewards 20% off one item

I know it's unusual but I had a great experience at TRU today!! They are going to be resetting the lego section next week. The manager told me today that they had a ton of new stock in the back but no place to put it. He brought out Palpatine's arrest for my son and I to look at. I just knew they wo...

Re: Worth investing in Hoth Echo Base - Limited Ed. ?

I personally like it and think it will do well. I picked up a couple a few weeks back when it was 30% off at TRU. It's hard to find good deals on TRU exclusives and I wish I would have bought more. If it's on sale over there, it might be a good opportunity. There are some who do not think it will do...

Re: Steal of a Deal / Recent LEGO Purchases

Although not as great as some deals here... I picked up a Green Grocer with Instruction manuals for $350. It's missing 1 minifig.

Re: Barnes & Noble Select Sets 30% Off

My local BN had a stack of Frigates and Sith Infiltrators (Literally stacked on the floor in the lego section). All were marked 30% off (or 40% off for members). Might be worth checking out in your area. I have already bought these sets for 50% off recently from Wal-mart, otherwise I'd be all over it.

Re: TRU New Star Wars/Hero Factory/Friends listed!

My TRU had the Interceptor, Gungan Sub and the starfighter today. Sure was cool to see them "in the flesh." Had a 20% off coupon. However that really only cuts out the $20 mark-up. So, I left empty handed but happy to be able to see them, knowing sometime soon I'll find a decent deal.

Re: Full Unexpected Gathering Set Revealed!

Re: LEGO Star Wars Rancor Pit Set

I'm real excited about this but... I have some concerns. I really want to see how this looks put together with Jabba's palace. Is it going to be stable when stacked? It seems like with the tower on the palace, the weight distribution would be off. Maybe I'm just thinking too hard. But, yeah, I want ...

Re: TRU Superhero Shield Event 6/16/12 - template included

I was impressed with how much fun this was. We had 2 8' tables. One for the superman and one for the batman. They had no problem with letting us build both. They had no problem with letting me build one. Definitely one of their better events of late. I was surprised at the size and the bricks used. ...
