Australian LEGO Sales & New Set Availability March 2017

March 3, 2017 By Jay Ong 13 Comments

It’s been awhile since I’ve done a sales post but there’s a ton of sales, offers and new products that have recently become available that I figured it would be great news to share with the community!

Here’s a compilation of all the March LEGO Sales & Deals in Australia. 

Myer (Super Saturday 3 – 4 March)

UPDATE: Myer’s eBay storeGet an extra 10% off at with the code C10AU. The eBay store doesn’t have as big a range as the Myer website and mostly only has some of the older sets. Still a great discount if you want to pick up some sets you missed.

Myer has by far one of the best LEGO sales at the moment for their Super Saturday offer with 25% off all LEGO except for Minifigures and LEGO Batman Movie sets. 

The sale will be in-store on Saturday but as you can see above, it’s already active on their online store. 25% off is an above-average discount and it’s the perfect opportunity to pick up some of new Marvel, Guardians of the Galaxy 2, Technic, Mighty Micros & Elves sets. 

Notable inclusions include the Modular Brick Bank (unlisted on the Myer site, so use this link) for $187.46 (RRP $250), and also the Creator Expert Big Ben set for AU$262.46 (RRP $350).

Toys R Us Australia (Catalogue Link 1 – 14 March)

 

On the flipside, Toys R Us Australia also has a decent LEGO sale, with a Buy 1 Get 50% all LEGO offer. That’s effectively 25% off if you can buy two sets that are priced identically, and it is great that the sale extends to ALL LEGO.

Some shopping ideas include TRU exclusives like the:

  • 75175 A-Wing Starfighter – AU$79.99 (in-store only and not listed online)
  • 75178 Rebel Combat Frigate – AU$199.99
  • 70732 Ninjago City of Stix – AU$179.99
  • 75096 Sith Infiltrator – AU$159.99
  • 41134 Heartlake Performance School – AU$129.99

Unfortunately, there’s still no sign of the LEGO Batman Movie 70912 Arkham Asylum even though the product page is online.

Target Australia (Catalogue Link 2 – 8 March)

Target Australia has a short 1 week catalogue sprinkled with a few selected sets on sale. Nothing particularly notable unless you’re after a few Star Wars Microfighters sets or new LEGO Nexo Knights Mechs which are 25% off, and a few smaller Friends sets on sale.

Unless you’re after the ridiculous 41301 Puppy Parade set or 41128 Amusement Park Space Ride which are 35% off, there’s nothing particularly noteworthy here.

UPDATE: Classic TV Series Batcave, UCS Tie Fighter & Assault on Hoth on sale too

Target also has the following large exclusive sets on sale. You can currently only find the Classic TV Series Batcave in stock on their online store but I’ve also received word that you can find Assault on Hoth and the UCS Tie Fighter on sale if you’re lucky to find them in-store.

If you’re thinking of snagging the Batcave, you should grab it on Target’s eBay store with the code C10AU for an extra 10% off.

  • 76052 Classic TV Series Batcave – $399| $299 (25%)
  • 76052 Classic TV Series Batcave (Ebay with code C10AU) – $399| $269 (32%)
  • 75098 Assault on Hoth – $399| $299 (25%)
  • 75095 UCS Tie Fighter – $279| $199 (28%)

Thanks to Jamie and Christopher for the heads up on this.

Big W (Catalogue Link 2 – 15 March)

Big W has a slightly meatier LEGO catalogue offer, with some great deals on LEGO Batman Movie sets like 70905 The Batmobile (25% off) and 70908 The Scuttler (23% off) which is great since Myer aren’t discounting them.

Other notable highlights include some of the newer Ninjago sets on sale – 70627 Dragon’s Forge is particularly tempting at AU$99 which is almost 30% off. 70625 Samurai VXL is also 30% off which isn’t too shabby.

There are also some discounted LEGO Dimensions sets that have been reduced. Not sure if this means all Fun, Level & Team Packs are $17, $25 and $32 respectively or if they’re only referring to the ones in the catalogue.


New Products on LEGO.com

It’s March, so we’ve got brand new sets on LEGO.com, which includes the new Speed Champion and Minecraft sets. It’s important to note that Australia is only getting the new Speed Champion sets at retail in the second half of the year, so if you don’t want to wait till then to pick up your very own Bugatti Chiron, you best order them online.

  • 75883 MERCEDES AMG PETRONAS Formula One™ Team – AU$149.99
  • 75882 Ferrari FXX K & Development Center – AU$79.99
  • 75881 2016 Ford GT & 1966 Ford GT40 – AU$49.99
  • 75877 Mercedes-AMG GT3 – AU$22.99
  • 75878 Bugatti Chiron – AU$22.99
  • 75879 Scuderia Ferrari SF16-H – AU$22.99

If Speed Champions isn’t your thing, LEGO have also released a slew of LEGO Batman Movie accessories:

  • 853650 THE LEGO® BATMAN MOVIE Batman™ Movie Maker Set – AU$29.99
  • 853638 THE LEGO® BATMAN MOVIE Batman™ Minifigure Collector Frame – AU$22.99
  • 853646 THE LEGO® BATMAN MOVIE Harley Quinn™ Hammer – AU$19.99
  • 853649 THE LEGO® BATMAN MOVIE Batman™ Notebook with Stud Cover – AU$19.99
  • 853652 THE LEGO® BATMAN MOVIE Batman™ Minifigure Plush – AU$39.99
  • 853653 THE LEGO® BATMAN MOVIE Batgirl™ Minifigure Plush – AU$39.99

Oh, and the Easter Seasonal set, 40237 Easter Egg Hunt is finally available as well!

If you’re planning to do a big LEGO.com shop, I’d recommend waiting till April, when we will get the VW Mini Beetle set from 4 – 20 April. The US will be getting this deal on 1 – 15 April, so the Yanks aren’t missing out on this promo!

 


That’s it for now! Anyone planning any LEGO shopping this weekend? Let me know what you plan on picking up in the comments!

Hope you guys have a fantastic weekend!

    Are you on Eurobricks? 🙂

    Thanks Jay these are always helpful! Also I had a quick look on Myers online store for the GOTG Vol2 sets but I couldn’t find them, will they be released online before the sales over?

      I doubt so, as their online store sometimes lags! Sorry this is a little late, but if you’re planning to spend more than $100, you can call up any Myer store, see if they have stock, pay over the phone and they’ll deliver it to you free of charge!

    Hi Jay, thanks for the great post! You might want to add that the Classic lego batcave is 25% off at target ebay (possibly on the website too?)

    http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/NEW-LEGO-DC-Comics-Super-Heroes-Batman-Classic-TV-Series-Batcave-76052-/182330821044?hash=item2a73c389b4:g:vekAAOSwARZXkAz2

    Also, you can get an extra 10% off ebay with the code C10AU

      Oh that’s an awesome deal! I just checked eBay and the C10AU code also stacks with Myer’s ongoing 25% off sale!

    Hi Jay, I was just in the Target in Perth today and they $100 off both of the massive Star Wars Assault on Hoth and 1960’s Batcave set.
    So they were both down to $299. I think that’s about 25% off for them.

      Oh cool, thanks for the heads up! I’ll update the post with the info. I’ve also heard that UCS Tie Fighters are also down to $199 if you can find them.

The 2023 LEGO Employee Gift was delivered by the p The 2023 LEGO Employee Gift was delivered by the postman today and it's beautiful!

This is 4002023 Gingerbread House, a brick built LEGO Advent Calendar with 24 mini builds you can discover each day as you count down to Christmas!

As a member of the LEGO Ambassador Network, we are incredibly privileged to receive this set, and is something I look forward to each year as we close out the year.

No spoilers here, but I hope you can appreciate the great box and graphic design, and just how cool this LEGO Dots-adjacent set is!

I'll be sharing the builds daily here on Instagram (with a one day delay to prevent inadvertent spoilers), so keep an eye out!

Also 1 December is when we kick off the annual Jay's Brick Blog Advent Calendar countdown! Hope you're ready!

Here's a look at the Sapphire Star, the locomotive Here's a look at the Sapphire Star, the locomotive that pulls the @lego Orient Express!

Honestly, I think the Locomotive looks pretty good. In the flesh, it's much more attractive than LEGO's marketing photos and on the box art.

The boiler is a little short and stubby, and it looks plain from the front but there's plenty of nice details such as the gold and blue colour scheme, minions heads, gold pens and also NPU usage with the helicopter blades for the running board.

It's definitely not as impressive the original ideas submission, but with LEGO having to work with @orientexpress, many of the changes came at the behest of the IP partner, including the colour change.

That said, the Orient Express has never been about the locomotive (the carriages are the stars), but I think it's still a very fun build - just that the bar set by the original submission was too high!

In case you were wondering, here's the @lego Orien In case you were wondering, here's the @lego Orient Express next to one of the most legendary trains ever, The Emerald Night! 

The Orient Express is satisfyingly large and the carriages are the star of the show, dwarfing The Emerald Night's singular carriage.

Special thanks to @ramblingbrick for loaning me The Emerald Night for this comparison!

Here's a look at the LEGO Marvel Taxi, a gift with Here's a look at the LEGO Marvel Taxi, a gift with purchase that you can only get if you purchase 76269 Avengers Tower from 24-27 November 2023, while stocks last.

As you can see, it comes in the yellow GWP boxes, and the elements are packed into a singular ziploc bag instead of the usual numbered plastic bag - this is typical for these yellow box GWPs as they are produced in very limited numbers and are packed by hand.

Thankfully the minifigures aren't exclusive, but it was a pleasant surprise that all the decorations are printed, including the license plate tile which has the Avengers Tower initials (AT) and set number printed on it.

It makes for a good companion to the taxi from the Daily Bugle, and whilst not absolutely necessary for the Avengers Tower, it's a decent enough bonus to reward those that buy it at launch.

You'll also be able to stack the Majisto's Workshop and Winter Market Stall GWPs, so it's a actually a really good time to order the Avengers Tower if it's on your wishlist.

We get a brand new Hulk bigfig, which includes a wig for the bigfig head. This allows The Hulk to swivel and turn his head properly for the first time ever.

The new bigwig also makes for some fun combinations possible.

As a bonus, I've included a group photo with some of the other bigfig green Hulks.

Took a deep dive into all the minifigures from the Took a deep dive into all the minifigures from the @lego Avengers Tower, which launches on 24 November! 

With 29 minifigures, 1 Ant-man nanofigure and 1 Hulk bigfig, the set contains the most minifigures in a retail set!

There are a total of 15 exclusive figures which feature slightly updated designs, new characters like Alexander Pierce and Erik Selvig to dramatic upgrades like Vision and a new bigfig design for the Hulk.

It's definitely "the most Avengers" set ever in minifigure terms, but there's still a number of characters that are central to the forming of the Avengers like Agent Coulson, Happy Hogan or even Maria Hill.

Which characters would you have liked to see in this lineup?

Your reward for buying the @lego Avengers Tower at Your reward for buying the @lego Avengers Tower at launch.

Here's a look at the LEGO Marvel Taxi gift with purchase. It'll only be available from 24-27 November when you purchase the Avengers Tower.

As with all yellow-packaged GWPs, expect there to be limited quantities, especially as the Avengers Tower is looking to be a really popular set.

I wouldn't wait around if you are planning on picking up the Avengers Tower. Hopefully there'll also be a slew of other GWPs that you can benefit from as well.

Review to come soon!
