    Collectible Figs Series 2 50% Off at Target

    Collectible figs
    Forum member ufjason found Volume 2 of the Collectible Minifigures at Target for 50% off the $2.99 pricetag. Since these are part of the Halloween seasonal items, it seems they qualify for the day-after-Halloween clearance. Assuming they have any left, this is a pretty sweet deal. Good luck trying to find them, but if you don’t, you can always get some cheap Halloween candy while you’re there.

  • [USA] Harry Potter Sets Hitting Stores Now!

    The newly-revived Harry Potter sets are reportedly appearing on shelves just about everywhere. turtle1173 found them at Walmart, that guy found them at K-mart, and condor found a set at Target. I saw them at Toys R Us today (with markups, of course), so it’s safe to say they’re probably in your area. They’re already on LEGO S@H and most likely in LEGO stores as well. Here’s the set list (and LEGO S@H prices for reference):

    4736 Freeing Dobby- $10.99
    4737 Quidditch Match- $19.99
    4738 Hagrid’s Hut- $39.99
    4840 The Burrow- $59.99
    4841 Hogwarts Express-$79.99
    4842 Hogwarts Castle- $129.99

    And don’t forget Double LEGO VIP double points all this month.

  • Collectible Minifigs Series 2 Found at Target

    Forum members roar15 and skyward72 have found Series 2 of the Collectible minifigures at Target by the Halloween items. Makes sense I guess, since a number of these minifigs could be considered Halloween-themed. Price is $1.99, same as LEGO S@H. If you don’t have a LEGO store nearby and want to avoid paying $2.50-$2.99 at TRU, Target might be worth a visit.

  • LULS Darth Vader Returns

    LULS Darth Vader Returns

    Sort of.

    Vader display at Target

    Spotted at his local Target, Jared Burks (Fine Clonier) of Fineclonier.com fame spotted this Light Up Lightsaber Maxifigure of Darth Vader. Not only does it light up, it moves! Apparently, there was no sound as is customary with LEGO display cases, and if there was it wasn’t very loud, at least with this unit. Jared also adds, “Helmet looked a bit cheap like a blow mold instead of solid plastic, but who cares”. Who cares indeed.

  • [US] Summer Clearance Kicking In at Target

    With the approach of summer sets, there is also the arrival of clearance sales. Reports are flooding in of Summer clearance at Target stores, with themes including Power Miners, City, Star Wars and Indiana Jones sets. Some noteworthy finds include:

    8037 Y-Wing 30% off
    8039 Venator 30% off
    7199 Temple of Doom 30% off

    This varies drastically from store to store, but it’s worth checking out if you have a Target nearby. Be sure to check in occasionally over the coming weeks when they up the savings to 50% off or higher. Also be sure to scan clearance items, because they may even have outdated labels and are cheaper than advertised! Happy hunting!

  • And More Sales News: This Time With SW/ToyStory!

    Got some better news that that TRU BOGO here for you all:

    K-Mart:

    They have a BOGO sale of their own, but its a Buy 2 Get 1 Free on all LEGO.  All LEGO includes Toy Story, Star Wars, and what Indy sets remain.  This is good online and in store, so if you, like me, no longer have a KMart nearby, you can still cash in on this deal.  If you buy three of the same item, it works out to 1/3 off, so not too bad.

    Target:

    Online and in-store, most Star Wars sets are 10% off and the 8085 Freeco Speeder is 20%.  Ho-hum choice for the 20% off item, but 10% off 7753 Pirate Tank isn’t too bad considering that this will likely be discontinued after this season and become hard to find.

  • [US] Some sets on clearance at Target

    Fans of Indiana Jones sets and other licensed lines (but not Star Wars, boo) should check out their toy isles at local US Targets. Forum members meeotch and Mister Ed have seen sets like 7682 Shanghai Chase and 3834 Good Neighbors at Bikini Bottom on clearance for 30% off.

    On a side note, start keeping your eyes out, in general, for pre-holiday sales. Last year was a doozy for sweet pre-holiday sales. Great sets, both SW and non-SW were showing up at up to 40% off in the weeks leading up to mid-December 2008. Send me (forum tag: copyright) a PM or post in the “Finds” forum all about the deals. I will be sure to get relevant news on the front-page so the community can capitalize on all the sweet holiday deals right away!!

  • [US] Target Sale: $8 Sets

    Thanks to a tip from forum member Puddleglum, Target has a sale this week where sets that are regularly priced at $10-11 are on sale for $8. Including the ever-awesome 8958 Granite Grinder, which I recently reviewed here.
