Alucard1982 Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Larger ones are $11 each plus postage, the more you buy at once the cheaper they become. I'm paranoid about dust, shelfwear, crushing, my 4 year old opening them etc etc. So they're good piece of mind for my long term holds. Once all the tabs are snapped in they're pretty hard to get open.... The website is www.videogameboxprotectors.com.au Thanks, I might start grabbing them in lots for the exclusives I have. I won't worry about the smaller sets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ED-209 Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Forum is back I seePrice guide and Brickfolio are still notably absent.I realised that I am quite dependent on BP. Brickset and bricklink just aren't anywhere near as good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED-209 Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 I picked up this one today from Kmart. City isn't my forte, so I had to just do an ebay search to see how much she's trending for. 35 seemed reasonable despite the scuff on the side of the box. You don't really see this one in stores anymore. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ED-209 Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 I like that little grand prix set, I think I have a few of those packed away. It's a cute little set and is now EOL so I had to grab it. 60 bucks seems to be the going ebay rate. I wonder if it'll increase much more. Then again, I might build it. I'm a car nut and those tools are dope! One could MOC a Modular Octan mechanic's workshop, Kmart tyre and auto style Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, Speed Champs has the Ferrari team with truck, and the McLaren pit stop, which have the same tools as 60025. The f1 cars look better, but both sets are more expensive. Personally, I prefer the green/white/red Octan colour scheme. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Ed & Jeff is still working on it.Missed getting my fix too.As reported earlier by other on this thread, i also saw the Mini and also the UCS Slave in Myer, but quantity is a dismay as i only saw one of each and that is on a Saturday Morning!

(Unless you guys arrived there real early to grab them?)You needed to be there at 9am on Thursday morning.The trouble with the Aussie Lego Market at the moment is blink and you've missed it, we don't have the luxury of waiting till something is close to retirement otherwise you get nothing here.Have to spread the purchases out as they become available when the sales are on.

Gheez.....This is really difficult. i agreed that with the market here at the moment, one click might be all that it will take to lose it FOREVER..... I made the mistake of waiting too long for the SSD and then in a flash, it was gone along with the wind. Oh well, live and learn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ausleigh Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 You needed to be there at 9am on Thursday morning..Obviously knowing that you'd need to be there is somewhat critical. Times like this I regret working in the suburbs and not in the city.As Ted said, live and learn for those that missed out, and celebrate those that scored.

ED-209 Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 There is always the phone Absolutely - Myer, Kmart and Big W employees are pretty good with putting sets on hold. Just gotta call during morning tea, lunch etc.. and then grab the sets after school or work. Here in Brisbane, I find that modulars can be hard to come by. I know of a few hoarders that pick the stores clean and then sell them at RRP or sometimes just a smidgen cheaper. One guy was selling ISDs on Thursday for 100-120 as the boxes were in awful condition, obviously he got them in the dropzone sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't say that I'm liking the upgrade, can we go back to the old system please 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
