I know lots

Ohhh, you mean how much will that set be from Myer

$129 as advertised on the front page of the Myer toy sale catalog which arrived in our letterbox overnight. And we'll use our $20 gift card and Myer One card which hopefully will give another 10% off...

Wife's going to go layby the R2D2 and Super Star Destroyer for me today (tried online but it kept crashing for the Target and Big W sites, and CBF going out at midnight). I think she's getting some of the Lego board games as well.
So close to $800 spend (kind of).

Went to Target and picked up the Malevolence, Sith Fury Interceptor, Sith Infiltrator, X-Wing, R2 and some smaller kits, spent around $800 all up. Still need to head to Big W and layby the Super Star Destroyer...

Just had one store put the Tower Bridge aside for me. It'll be a bday gift for the misses (she's discovered that she finds building LEGO therapeutic and lived in Essex for a year so hoping she likes it).

yeah worked that out... and it's not available online.
Not that it would do any good since the BigW and Target online stores have been crashed pretty much all day. I have R2D2 and a few other sets in my Target cart that I can't finalise. yay. :-(

Woot!. Picked up the bridge and the guy knocked an extra 30 bucks off the price

Now just gotta keep it hidden till her birthday so no posting on the internet

SamBoio · 22nd June 2012, 11:06 AM

Finally managed to layby R2D2 and a couple of lego games on the Target Website. Have to wait till November to get them though

Looks like BigW are opening at midnight next week for their sales. I think I'll go get my Super Star Destroyer.

So last night I impulse bought my first ever Lego set (which I paid for) - the R2D2 thanks to you fellas, and I must say I'm having a lot of fun revisiting childhood days as it's the first time I've touched it since early '90s! The box was much larger than I had anticipated and didn't expect 2 instruction books either (!), but boy did it bring a smile to my face when I jumped into it.

FYI, my local Target (Castle Hill) had around 25 as of last night 10pm when I picked mine up.
