Amazon Discounts Elite Clone Troopers

Army builders, rejoice! Amazon has discounted 9488 Elite Clone Trooper and Commando Droid Battle Pack by a nice 27% margin, dropping the price down to $9.44 from $12.99 MSRP. Free super saving shipping starts at $25 so pad your order with a few more or add something else to hit that threshold unless you’re a Prime member in which you’d get free 2-day shipping then.

In other battle pack news, Amazon still has 75001 Republic Troopers vs Sith Troopers on sale 20% off at $10.44

Amazon’s 20% or More off Sale on LEGO Star Wars

Amazon’s running some kind of wacky sale. I hesitated reporting on this sale because a) it’s only 20% and b) I usually find out about it only for it to revert to a higher price before I hit the publish button. Some of these deals seem to be sticking around though.

New Star Wars In Stock at LEGO Shop@Home

I was more or less offline the past few days enjoying the holidays with the family, so I don’t know exactly when this happened but LEGO Shop@Home now has almost the entire January 2013 assortment online for LEGO Star Wars; no sign yet of the Planet Series 3 sets. Looking at the list, only one set hits above $50 and that’s 75005 Rancor Pit. Everything else is $49.99 or less. Dare I say that this wave seems affordable? Of course, that’s not taking into account the price/piece ratio, but that’s a whole other argument.

Now I know why 75013 Umbaran MHC (Mobile Heavy Cannon) never showed up at Amazon: it’s listed as “Hard to Find” which means it’ll either be a Walmart or Target exclusive set since 75014 Battle of Hoth is exclusive to Toys’R'Us. My money’s on Target for this one.

On to the list!

75005 Rancor Pit, Others Now Available at Amazon

Did you pick up the $99 dollar deal on 9516 Jabba’s Palace from yesterday’s mention? Did you wish you had 75005 Rancor Pit to go underneath it? Well you’re in luck since Amazon just stocked up on the big ugly beast. Price is $59.99 with free shipping and no tax to most states.

A quick search yields more 2013 sets are available:

No sign of that 75003 A-wing Starfighter set or the 75013 Umbaran MHC (Mobile Heavy Cannon), yet but keep your eyes peeled. It might show up in the next few days.

Big thanks to Steve for writing it in! Now to try and find some more money to spend at Amazon…

Dutch etailer bol.com listed all of the January 2013 assortment for Star Wars on their site and included some pretty good sized images. I’ve rehosted them on our flickr account and posted them below.

Thanks to Richel Rijnbergen for writing it in.
