Australian LEGO Sale: Mid-Year Toy Sale June 2017

June 13, 2017 By Jay Ong 45 Comments

It’s been a little quiet on the LEGO sales front here Down Under, but all that is about to change soon as the mid-year toy sales officially kicks off!  If you’re new to toy sales here in Australia, the mid-year stocktake sale window is the second biggest toy sale (after Christmas) in the country and…

April & Easter LEGO Sales – Australia & the UK

April 8, 2017 By Jay Ong 22 Comments

Easter is approaching, and something is definitely in the water because Australian retailers and LEGO themselves are going hard with LEGO sales and offers like it’s out of style.

Australian LEGO Sales July 2016

July 21, 2016 By Jay Ong 40 Comments

Welcome to the second half of 2016! We’re almost a week into July which means the June toy sales are beginning to wind down. We’ve still got one retailer that’s yet to show their hand – Target Australia. They are gearing up for their “not-a-sale” toy event (whatever that is), and with the emergence of UCS Tie…

May 20, 2016 By Jay Ong 10 Comments

We’re very close to June, which is then the Australian mid-year toy sale traditionally kicks off, so it’s been pretty quiet on the LEGO sales front for now. Fret not, as Myer finally has a sale worth shouting about! Myer  (20 – 22 May) Myer has another one of their Super Weekend sales and this time they…

LEGO have revealed a whole bunch of Marvel and DC LEGO have revealed a whole bunch of Marvel and DC Comics sets including the highly anticipated 76261 Spider-Man Final Battle featuring all 3 Spider-Man from No Way Home!

Got a chance to see a preliminary model of 76261 a few months ago, and while the minifigure lineup is impressive, the model is absolutely tiny.

Venomised Groot is super cute, and the Batwing is an absolute winner at this scale and price. 

Hit the link in bio to see more of these sets!

This is LEGO 40364 Icons of Play, a set celebratin This is LEGO 40364 Icons of Play, a set celebrating some of the most accomplished female football players.

It features minifigures of @samanthakerr20, @mrapinoe, @yuki_nagasato and @asisat_oshoala, and is set to be released on 6 June 2023! 

I read some extremely disgusting misogynistic comments on this set, from the usual terminally-online, incel-esque dudebros who probably need to get out a little.

Women's football is on the up and up, with exponential growth in game attendance, and TV viewership, and this is really smart timing on LEGO's part, releasing this just before the FIFA Women's World Cup starts.

Women's football has massive grassroots support, and is a hugely popular sport for young girls, the very builders of tomorrow that LEGO is continually trying to inspire.

LEGO is even a sponsor of the Australian national women's team @thematildas!

It's not even a bad set, and will integrate nicely into LEGO City, with clear references to the popular Football theme from the early 2000s.

Still, it's very disappointing (but not surprising) to see large LEGO pages continue to encourage and not take a stronger stance against sexism and misogyny. 

Do better with your influence and reach.
