Two of the thousand eyes of the LUGnet beast were operational this morning. I visited Toyworld in Queen Street and the Myer Centre, Brisbane. I saw lots of things on sale (some 50% or more off): 8008 Imperial Stormtrooper (Star Wars, Technics) $25 http://guide.lugnet.com/set/8008 7161 Gungan Sub (Star Wars) $45 <<<-- (has a special place in my heart) http://guide.lugnet.com/set/7161 6290 Red Beard Runner re-release (Pirate) $119 http://guide.lugnet.com/set/6290 6714 Speed Dragster (Racer) $10 http://guide.lugnet.com/set/6714 4572 Scratch (Racers) $2.50 -- I think there were other racers at the same price http://guide.lugnet.com/set/4572 5920 Islander Racer (Adventurers)$4 http://guide.lugnet.com/set/5920_2 8445 Indy Storm, Formula 1 Racer (Technics) $40 http://guide.lugnet.com/set/8445 6617 Tough Truck Rally (Racer) $49 http://guide.lugnet.com/set/6617 5823 Millimy's Bedroom (Belville) $7 http://guide.lugnet.com/set/5823 There were more items on sale than these (e.g. Duplo) but that's all I bothered to record. For BUGs, the Queen Street store had all of the above, but there was only a smaller selection in the Myer Centre. I have no idea if these sales are available in other Toyworld stores. I must admit the set that surprised me was the Gungan Sub, as I haven't seen any in stores for ages. Incidentally I also visited Queen Street Myer. Although this store usually carries a good range of Lego, their selection was poorer than normal (maybe due to the sale last week?). The shelves were mostly full of the smaller Harry Potter sets, Jack Stone, and Bionicles. Nothing particularly worthy of mention, and no discounts to be seen.

(...) haven't got one at the $50 price as I don't think it is worth it, but at $25... Also if they have an 8007 C-3PO for the same price that would be good. Thanks, Martin (23 years ago, 9-Apr-02, to lugnet.loc.au)
