Do you guys think I should keep Lego city corner Item #: 7641 at $41.98 and the small Hogwarts at $34.98? Are they worth it at these prices is really what I mean?

Just picked up a Millenium Falcon 7965! Really can't wait to start this. I also did a quick search and can't believe how the price of 4504 on ebay fell to the $150-$200 range. Here's hoping for a refresh on 6211, 6210 and a few others in 2012.
 
Went to Fred Meter last night and picked up a few TS sets for 60% off. They had the army men, dump truck, Buzz's ship, and Wody's Round up. There was a tag saying City Corner would have been as well, but they were sold out.

If you mean the City Corner when you say "Lego City", then hell no. I paid $15 for them last year, and while it's a great set, I can't see paying more than $30 for it. I don't think it dropped to 75% off this time around though. The small Hogwarts, you mean the Hogwarts roof set? Since I paid $12.xx for them at Target over the past week and a half, then I say no to that price too. You should be able to find that one still at a Target near you for full price or slight discount, and try to do a return/rebuy at another Target that has it clearanced for 75% off. Just call the Targets around you and ask for the price on that set, I think the Target DPCI for it is 204-00-0402

BTW I just built one of the POTC Cannibal Escape sets, the set is awesome. Certainly not worth the $29.99-$32.99 MSRP, but for $8.xx it's a steal :D

I have been pondering getting 10144 and 6210 for awhile. I am so afraid that if I buy one (esp 6210), lego will re-release the set.

Item #: 4867. Ok I guess I will return them especially since I don't even think my son cared that much for them. I wish I had gotten them cheaper. I'd rather put my $ to a better set like medieval market village. I just bought 2 star wars sets for his bday last week I got him Gen Grevious ship even though he had the original ship but he likes the new greivous mini figure and Bounty Hunter™ Assault Gunship.
I got him The Battle of Naboo™ for $9. Thanks for your input, I will call Target with that DPCI but I doubt I will find it, and they don't usually do return/rebuy.
 
Should I sell my 7190 MF for the new one? It's missing half the minifigures, so I would probably only get $80 or so for it. Part of me wants to keep since it's the first one, but the new one looks great!

I would just keep it since it is the first iteration of it. I don't think Lego will make a set similar to that again. I like it because it looks rugged like the older sets.

Couldn't agree more. I just built 7965, it was a blast. We need to get some of those sets re-released. Sail Barge and Sandcrawler for sure.
 
[quote name='NCrush']Targets in my area have absolutely nothing in terms of clearance.[/QUOTE]

So you don't want to hear me say I found Cad Bane's Speeder for $12.48 and Flo's V-8 Cafe for $14.98 then right?;)

They do have 50% off Gateway of the Squid and some other Atlantis set for $10.
 
I'm hoping Amazon carries the Executor. No tax makes all the difference. Although I'm going to have to get it no matter what. I'm totally getting into microscale LEGO SW and almost not caring for minifigure LEGO SW. It's the weirdest thing. For other LEGO themes, I hate microscale.

I'm hoping Amazon gets it too. I got some credit there and free shipping + no tax is always a plus. But I wouldn't complain getting Lego VIP points on this either.

How do I sign up for these coupons?!
 
[quote name='Pyloric']How do I sign up for these coupons?![/QUOTE]

I think I get them from when I order from them online and opt to receive special offers from TRU.

I'm going to guess and say you can also sign up for the Rewards"R"Us program and get offers that way too.
 
Amazon having a sale on some Prince of Persia sets: * 7571 - $17.69 w/free shipping *7572 - $29.22 w/free shipping - Lot cheaper than what they are going for retail at most other sites/stores
 
Not sure if this has been posted but I saw 2 LEGO sets at Costco - Alien Mothership for $45 and Hogwarts (smaller one not the whole castle) for around the same.
 
Don't forget Massholes that it's tax free weekend for the stupid idiots who can't just figure out how to get to New Hampshire.

I saw Hogwarts last week at Costco. I'll wait to see if it gets discontinued so it becomes cheaper, but don't know if I need the small one if I already have the big set.

The new small hogwarts connects to the bigger hogwarts.

I got recently LEGO Atlantis Undersea Explorer $10, City corner $41.98, Hogwarts $34.98, Kingdom Prison Tower Rescue $18.50, Atlantis Exploration HQ 8077 $24.98, Gateway of the Squid $9.98. Are these Atlantis sets good? I saw Hogwarts at Costco also for maybe $39.99 so I will prob. give mine back cause it is only $5 cheaper. Not sure yet about city corner, one of you said they got it way cheaper, don't know if I will find it that cheap. Not sure if I should keep it or not, I still did get a discount.

The city corner may disappear soon since its been around for a while so i would hold onto it for now. If you got it from target they have a long return policy so just keep your receipt.
 
Here's one for you guys:

I bought a Maersk Train set on Ebay for $100 with free shipping. I got the train set yesterday which was shipped from Lego.com. The account I paypaled is in France. The shipping manifest says some woman in New Mexico bought the set and had it shipped to my house with a total of $140. WTF is going on here? I'm thinking somebody's got some credit card numbers. Can't exactly open a case against them as I got the set, but something fishy is going on here.
 
[quote name='180husher']Can't exactly open a case against them as I got the set, but something fishy is going on here.[/QUOTE]

You certainly didn't do anything wrong, but the right thing to do now would be to report what happened. If it was my stolen credit card, I'd want the person who knew about to do something about it.

I have no doubt some will justify it as a victimless crime, however.
 
[quote name='brotterr']Are the two toy r us exclusive sets that are currently on sale worth buying ?? Need some advice.. Thanks[/QUOTE]

I don't know how many of the Trucks were produced by I'm sure it can be a collectors item down the road.
 
[quote name='bigdaddy']5% off? :lol:[/QUOTE]

Don't forget that of the newer sets the least desirable of the lower tier pricing will be 25% off.
 
I went to a Twilight Zone Target today that still had Hagrid's Hut and Ultimate Build McQueen at full price. I wanted to do a buy, return, and rebuy, but didn't want to go through the trouble.
 
[quote name='NCrush']Star Wars sets are on sale next week at Target.[/QUOTE]

No wonder there's a bunch of overstock and an endcap ready to go for next week.
 
I read this evening that Series 5 Minifigs are showing up at Five Below. Not sure how accurate or true that is - but I know they're now available at the UK shop via Toys n Bricks. I'd say that's a sign they'll be on shelves soon'ish.

Also, the leaked images of those possible Series 6 Minifigs over at Eurobricks were removed at the request of LEGO. Pretty interesting stuff!
 
Got 5 more at the Beavercreek TRU. Boxer, Godzilla suit guy, another Cleopatra, gangster, and the fisherman. The boxer and the gangster kick ass. The boxer's hands are gloves and move around just fine. The gangster's pistol can be stored in the case - a nice touch.
 
Damn. My store hasn't gotten any Series 5 yet.



TRU 8/14 - 8/21

30% off
Marina $34.99
Passenger Plane $30.09
Police Station $76.99
Space Center $48.99
Fire Station $59.49

All other City sets on sale also, I'm assuming 10%.
 
There are rumors of 2012 sets flloating around.

The City sets will have random small vehicle only sets like an ambulance and a dump truck. And the theme of January will be fire and police sets set in the forest. Lame.

Then there will be girl sets in minifigure scale but not contain real minifigures. Stupid and lame.

Then there will be a dino theme that sounds like the last one. I hope we get better dinos.
