Black Friday 2016

[brickolodon]

No reason to celebrate thanksqiving cause no pilgrims in Europe, we all natives to that land...very similar holiday just like this, but no bears involved.

You can watch this cartoon in english on netflix, masha and the bear, pretty funny.

Hothbricks has some news for EU shop.

Looks like I picked the wrong week to give up French.

Such big news it took out the whole site.   I also suspect this will be like last year where some of the best deals are not released ahead of time, and some may be instore only.

Finally, there will be no a priori VIP premiere a week before the start of tenders as was the case in previous years.

this is interesting given that its listed on the US calendar.

almost anything with a gingerbread house... I did most of my shopping in store and the AT-AT was by far the winner, but that was not available at SAH by that time.  I dont recall much for deals on SAH that was not available somewhere else cheaper, except for Pirate Chess. 

 

looking back at http://www.thebrickfan.com/lego-black-friday-2015-and-cyber-monday-deals/  their were definitely some winners there, brick bounty, ghost, cargo plane, etc, but it was really the GH that made them great deals.

Thanks. Hope we will see more sets being added to this year's list later on. But just like you said, even with 20% off, SAH price is still lame unless they are willing to discount some exclusive sets, like 71040 ?

any good deals on a 3ds out there yet?

Walmart and target will have them at $99

[Phil B]

Given that these have already been sold for $99 at the LEGO Store in DisneyLand/World, maybe we'll see Temple of Airjitzu make a BF appearance again, this time at 50% off? Last year it was a "Buy ToA and get Ronin R.E.X. for free" offer, so this might be not too far fetched ...... ?

Not gonna happen

[brickzoor]

Just a heads up- word is gamestop will only have 20 green arrow polys per store. Not sure how popular it will be but fewer than I expected. 

Hoping they'll have the ps4 supergirl starter in stock to bundle and then just flip the starter pack.

I'll be purchasing the cheapest fun pack they have and as many as they'll allow.

[Alpinemaps]

I plan to get there early, and grab the PS4 bundle with Supergirl. I'll sell off the bundle, and keep Supergirl. Not looking forward to the very early morning.

Like get there early like they open early, or get there at like 7am for a 10am opening?

I was hearing they open at 5, so I was thinking 3. But I'm also debating my time and sleep value and weighing eBay cost against that.

Yep, it's worth paying $30 for one, so I can sleep in until 9am.  What am I saying, my kids have me up before 6am every day off?  They'll probably hit < $20.

[minicoopers11]

That green arrow poly is tempting...i already grabbed the supergirl PS4 pack last week during the cartwheel sale though....hm. Probably not getting up.

I did post that you could call in to get that set and pay s/h. Not sure how many on here did that. But yes ToA would be a good candidate...if it lasts till then.
Wasn't the Pirate ship 50% last year at the Lego store?

Do you really think it will be that in-demand?  There are probably 8 or 9 Gamestops within 25 minutes of me.  I assumed there wouldn't be an issue even if I struck out at one of them.  My priority that morning will be Lego Store...

Green Arrow will hit EBay hard, so prices will drop quick.  Just my prediction and probably not a revelation.  He ain't no Iron Patriot.
