terrymc4677 Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 That is a super deal for that set. "super" is an extreme understatement, especially for a set that just came out a few short months ago. i thought i hit it big with my 20 weathertops for $18/each. jabba's palace for that price is insane!!! somebody at shopko should lose their job over that! lol awesome find, huskers1236! I would trade the $18 Weathertops everyday and twice on Sunday. Not if there was just one, mind you, but your ability to get 20 at that price is a much better deal, I think. I thought about opening the set and selling off the figures to keep the parts since I love the tan and dark tan, but after looking them up, they wouldn't make me enough so I think it will get put away. I already have an open one anyway, so no real pressure to open it. i'll trade you 2 of my weathertops for the jabba's palace you found today. i spent $36. you spent $18. retail comes out about the same on both sides. PM me if interested. i would love to get another jabba palace (have 3 already, but paid $90 a piece for them), so to get one for $36 would be great. i have some weathertops to spare. Quote

Let me think about it and PM you. This JP is only my 3rd, and only 2 are sealed. I only have 1 Weathertop, and was wanting a few more because I want to open 2 to get a little legion of Ringwraiths. I'm heading out of town this weekend and will stop by some more Shopkos and try my luck some more. Quote

hepcatpunk Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 Went to a nicer Shopko this morning, but didn't see a whole lot. Only thing on clearance were the AT-ST SW Planet sets for 2.99---picked up 1 of those. They did have 2 of Olivia's House for 64.99 retail---bought those and came out to 48.74 w/ the BOGO---daughter will LOVE the one we open. Quote
heathx3 Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 Got my new Cemima set today..... heading home to assemble it and my new Grand Emporium..... should resurface sometime Saturday.... Woooo Hoooo! Quote
Legodog Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 Got my new Cemima set today..... heading home to assemble it and my new Grand Emporium..... should resurface sometime Saturday.... Woooo Hoooo! I just started the Grand Emporium last night. Got the first floor done. Lots of fun. Quote
Rich B Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 I just started the Grand Emporium last night. Got the first floor done. Nice! I loved building that set. Building the escalators were my favorite part. The large chandelier on the third floor is cool too! Quote
stephen_rockefeller Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 I think the GE is the best modular by a long shot!!! The older ones get more attention because of their SM value..........put them all the modulars on an even playing field and this one is the best all around IMO. Quote
cobi Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 I just started the Grand Emporium last night. Got the first floor done. Lots of fun. Hey Legodog Let me know when you get to book 3 page 42. I am curious if you have the same problem I did. The flower (part# 472801), did not have the hole all the way throught. I spent hours trying to figure out what I was doing wrong. Then I called LEGO tech support and found out I have a defecive part. They sent a replacement part and it worked fine. Quote

Legodog Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 Where'd you get those buses from? Barnes and Noble. One that I visted before and they weren't there so who knows how they got them. Quote
