comicblast Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Target is having a large Lego sale both online and instore. You get 5% back with a Target Redcard as well as free shipping on orders more than $75. Great deal IMO if you can find the right set. Some of the better SW ones that I found are the 9488 Elite Clone Trooper Battle Pack ($9.50), 75003 A-Wing ($20), 75005 Rancor Pit (49.40), etc. Seems like they have basically price-matched Amazon, or vice versa, but if you have a Target Redcard, and no tax, the its a better deal.

dunkers97 Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I was just there two days ago and didn't see anything about a sale but I'll check it out and see what I can get, Thanks for posting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlgebraicMirror Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Having ordered from amazon, Lego and target, I find the Legos arrive in the best shape when target ships them, which is another plus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sadowsk1 Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Everyone stay on guard for Amazon to price match it all and hopefully undercut Target deals. I've been eyeing up that A-wing for too long... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DominickSoldano Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I grabbed one this morning. And I also grabbed a land speeder from Walmart. I already had one of each MISB as collectibles but I wanted some to build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOrcKing Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Everyone stay on guard for Amazon to price match it all and hopefully undercut Target deals. I've been eyeing up that A-wing for too long... Me too. I'm obsessed with collecting every A-Wing! I like how for this new version they gave the pilot his real helmet instead of just a regular biker's one with some printing like they have done before.

exciter1 Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Amazon price matched most of Target's prices already this morning. I snagged another X-Wing and an A-Wing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at TRU about to buy the set when whiteboy02 pointed it out to me, I was so mad I didn't even buy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicblast Posted March 18, 2013 Author Share Posted March 18, 2013 Quite a few of the Friends sets and a few Creator sets are on sale too. Not sure how long the sale last so grab'em now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redeemed763 Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I checked them out, I think there were about 10 sets on sale, most of these were going for more than they have on Amazon for weeks, and the few that were cheaper are more expensive or a wash after tax is included. Is there something I am missing? What part of this sale makes it "huge"? It certainly isn't very far reaching as most sets aren't on sale at all, and it the discounts on the few that are on sale aren't that substantial when you consider that they have been on sale for some time now and will need to include sales tax.

I was at TRU about to buy the set when whiteboy02 pointed it out to me, I was so mad I didn't even buy it.That's crazy, but I wouldn't fault Lego for reusing a head. Honestly, for the job that A-Wing pilot carried out he deserves that expression. That new helmet is pretty sweet though. I'm told that Snape from Harry Potter is the same as Admiral Piett in the UCS SSD. Oh well. It's funny though how I will wait for the set to get discounted just a slight bit more before I bite when the reality of and extra buck or so seems trivial. I suppose when I have a load of A-wings already in the hangar I can be patient for one more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
