Patch is pretty lame to be honest. Rocket is much betterer. ?

Could you not buy this at the LEGO store in Brizvegas? Maybe everyone waiting for their order to at least ship , before the undercutting party begins.

You mean the patch? I just ordered from SAH and it has arrived. Dreamworld is not is Brisvegas. I live pretty central and it's at least a 50 min one-way trip with often bad traffic and costs around 25 bucks in fuel both ways, so im being as economical with time and money as possible. These days Toll arent too slow either

No , meant the rocket.  I can’t really see the patch  having much value , but who knows.

You can purchase the rocket for $12.99 so I don’t see its value really going anywhere. 

Actually,  I can’t find it for sale now. Last night when I was thumbing through I sought for 1299 because I was disappointed to see it for sale. Guess I should’ve bought some!

Our site said the same thing, except it was $19.99.  It was a glitch and was never available to purchase separately. Think it might actually still be there.

Target - clearancing 75220 Sandcrawler @$99. Heaps are available at my local Target - struggling to see enough upside on this one. If I find one in a Target Country store during a 20% off sale..... 

...you will avoid it like the plague aswell? ?

yeah you're right - too much hard work to get value out of.

Rocket has taken off.

The local eBay boards - absolutely hilarious since the end of the $1.10 FVF weekends. I thought people on the Facebook LUG pages were entitled whingers....

Cleaned out the local Big W of 71244 Sonic Dimensions Packs @$5 each.

71253 Fantastic Beasts also $5 and 71242 Ghostbusters ($10) story packs also on offer

My local Target country has them at $5 too. Started awhile ago , think only the mission impossible one is left.

Only eBay knows - plenty of speculation.

I recall eBay remove this FVF candy last year prior to Xmas and then it returned in January??

Guess its a watch this space to see what happens on eBay next.

Personally my listings have dropped from 213 to 150 since the Weekend $1.10FVF ended and will eventually drop to 40 unless I get some more FVF offers.

Facebook works ok for moving multiples of the same item over a weekend. I stay away from Gumtree because I don't like the idea of randoms showing up at my home.

Sold at a couple of Lego fairs - which went really well. And one toy fair which although made money it wasn't enough to entice me to go back, 9 hours to nett $300.

 

Rocket still going at LEGO Shop at Home. Resale potential of a nice little set fading.

60195 Arctic mobile exploration base $79 on clearance @ Kmart . Aiming to flip this at my next LEGO market in August.
Plenty of first wave LM2 sets on sale - I think that are pretty meh.

Nice find. 

Voltron still alive on eBay at $203 with eBay plus and code , but you better be quick.

And in other news , Rocket Ride set plummeting on eBay. How many sea containers did they bring in?

Took the kids to see the NASA exhibition in Brisbane on the weekend - bloody awesome.

Kids of all ages marvelling at the displays.

Get to end to check out the merch - not a Lego lunar module or Saturn V rocket in sight - bloody shabby clone brick sets for sale.
