Been searching around my local Big Wsss for the City Explorer Ship....guess i am too late as i cannot see it on the shelves at all. It cannot even be ordered online too, argh frustrating....anyone got any luck this sales period? I know Myer have them at not the so attractive discount...

Which one is the explorer ship? Is it the one on special for $99?

Yes 60095 which come in at $99 dollars....cannot find them at a few of the big w that i went to....but like what JeffProbst stated, TRu have them and i also know Myer have them. didn't see them at kmart or Target. Not the point, just that $99 bucks hits my target for a buy.....at least for myself. ????

I grabbed the last 2 and the last town square of the shelf at my local. $400 for all 3 sets, should be ok come Christmas.

I managed to find a Parisian Restaurant at my local TRU, with the 22% off voucher came to $195. This is for the personal collection so I'm happy with that. 

Damn! TRU have sweet FA modulars in Brisbane area.  

Today I got a single TFA Tie Fighter for $59 (40% off) from Big W. Some type of glitch promotion or something. I would've gotten more, but was the last one on the shelf.  No Poe's or MF either. They had been raided bear.

I see that they have put a limit of 2 on the Thanksgiving set, was five yesterday.

Trick or Treat was limit 12 in the first couple of days before dropping to 5 but I don't know if it ever dropped to 2

 

Will Australians want the Thanksgiving set , considering that it is a holiday that not many Australians do ? 

 

Trick or Treat was initially 20.

I think Thanksgiving will be a niche market as people will want to get the full set. I've order 7 so far.

Do you guys collect or build at all, or do you just buy with the intent to sell?

I find that I only have room to build small sets at the moment (Ideas, City, Architecture etc.). Have grand plans to set up a Modular street one day but who knows if that will ever happen. With Scooby/Monsters CMF and the Ghostbusters HQ coming soon, a spooky part of town with the HH seems like a must now as well.

I've got pretty limited space for display, but I've got a stash of each (semi-recent) modular, HH and TB to build and put somewhere one day. I've also got a few little minifigure displays as well.

Tower Bridge is quite repetitive to build but it's a brilliant model. Was one of my first builds after I came out of my dark ages along with Ecto-1 and the VW Camper. Due to my lack of room it is sitting in a corner gathering dust right now, surrounded by unopened LEGO sets. 

Have FB through to DO, HH and two HE unopened at the moment which I plan to use as the foundation of a small city when we move into a bigger place (Mrs JP has OK'd a LEGO room). Also have all of the Winter sets (except one) but I'm not sure if I will build these or just them go
