Thought about picking up the ninjago destines bounty at target since i like ships but didn't know if it was worth it at 30% off. Any thoughts?

That set is fairly new, our store doesn't have any ninjago on clearance. My son wants it because he thinks it looks like those asian pirate ships from POTC.

This review got me seriously considering Destiny's Bounty. Maybe it will help you spend your money.

The exclusive SDCC minifigure thought to be Venom is actually black suited symbiote Spider-man. We'll be getting Venom, Spider-man, Nick Fury, , Nova, J. Jonah Jameson, Victor Von Doom and Beetle.
From DC we get - Mister Freeze, Aquaman, a white suited Batman, Bane, Commissioner Gordon with a SWAT flack jacket, hooded Robin, Scarecrow, Arkham jumpsuit Joker, Penguin and what I believe is Harley Quinn in a nurse disquise

Also series 8 minifigs should hit in September

Dang, series 8 looks great! I see about 10 of them that I gotta get for me or my kids.

Series 8 looks alright, a lot of recycled stuff, but that's not always a bad thing.

As far as the con figures go, the more I've thought about it, the more it bugs me... we (my family) spend a boat load on Legos and they're giving away the exclusive stuff to random, richer people that can afford to go to SDCC.

Just doesn't seem right.

Lego sets at Target on clearance starting to get interesting (along with general toy clearance). Might be worth a trip for you guys to check out your local stores. Just stay the hell out of any stores in LA.

Now begins the fun task of Target arbitrage (return/rebuys for the highest discounts/lowest prices on various sets). Unfortunately I don't think any sets worthwhile will last to 75% off, if they even get to that point, at the end of the month. Most quality sets are disappearing at 30% off, some even less, but some stores have 50% off on certain sets (even if not in stock) while other stores at less discounted clearance or even MSRP.

Keep track of those DPCIs, people. Once I have everything I want locked in at 50% off, hopefully soon, I'll post an extensive list of sets on clearance. My advice is to check every set you're interested in...

Love the new Rancor set and the minifig pics for the new Marvel and DC releases ... looks like I might just be spending some money on LEGO again later this year

i popped on the destinys bounty at target. i would definatly recommend it. very nice build. saw only two at six stores so act fast if 30% off is enough for you.

I went to Target today and boy was I disappointed, it was a joke!! I saw most things marked up then put on clearance, lmao... I saw one thing that was previously priced -$1.00 and put on clearance for $2.48.

Btw:

Anyone know if the Rancor can actually fit a minifigure in its mouth? I can tell the mouth opens but it would be sweet if they created it with the ability to fit in a minifig

The Rancor Pit looks awful...seriously, a cube with empty sides and one big gate? Kids and I would have more fun playing with the box it came in...and that might even look more like the Rancor Pit than the real set. Tan and white???

the sad part is it'll be almost guaranteed to be at least $30, more likely $40...

If you look at both sets, it looks like Jabbas Palace would be able to sit right on top of it.

That set will not be less than $50, I'm thinking $60. A sand speeder is $25 now a days.

I'm thinking $40. It's a little less than the Weathertop sets, which has 5 minifigs, and more pieces.

It'll probably be TRU's exclusive and be $45.

New year, less pieces more money. Plus the monster makes up for several minifigures.

I am pretty sure the set is suppose to be $60.
