Smaug is gonna go crazy expensive, even though the movie sucked. He's the best dragon mold yet, possibly licensed/single use only, has a unique wing construction, and only in a huge, overpriced set.

That corner deli will be bought. It was meant to complement bike shop and cafe mehinks. The same way fishers hut was meant to complemwnt mountain hut. They will all be mine. Mine!
Ooh, you're probably right.

Good price on the AT-AT for $79 on warehouse. Few $ cheaper than when I bought it on warehouse a few months ago.

Target.com has 15% off everything, including Lego (which is usually excluded from these promos), with promo code TGTKZN2T.
They have modulars... and the Sea Cow... my wife might murder me in my sleep, but I pulled the trigger.

Selling my mint-in-box Cafe Corner or Green Grocer may spare my life... maybe...

I was trying to find it cheaper but failing so ordered Silver Mine Shootout for £45 new on eBay
nice deal on target.com!
remember it becomes 20% if you use a RED Card. And you should, if you are a Target shopper. Free shipping too, of course (all red card purchases get free shipping, regardless)
looks like this promo LITERALLY works on anything including Ewok Village and other D2C stuff.
How often can you buy sets like this at 20% off? Not often... now is the time.
note that target.com already has a lot of sets below MSRP. examples:

Finally got an Ewok Village!
GHOSTMIND and others who keep an eye on this stuff: Did we ever find out what was wrong with Poe Dameron's X-Wing? I'd be curious what parts they fixed/changed if that rumor was true now that sets are readily available.
Very good. I'd be HIGHLY tempted by it right now... if I didn't already have one!
Oh well. I have big plans for the 2016 wave. I don't need to blow too much extra cash.
I did pick up a Naboo Starfighter though. So, at least I got something!
Here is another great set to snatch up (before it sells out... someone posted the 15% off deal on slickdeals so...)

Well that was fast, I was juts looking at the LEGO Wall-E set on target.com and it's sold out now. Looks like a lot of desired target sets are going to sell out.

From what we were told the cockpit window piece was warped and it wouldn't close properly, not sure if it was a problem with the mould or if they warped after the fact but it appears they fixed it.

Wow, how long do these codes normally last?
I just picked up the Sandcrawler and Ferris Wheel! That's almost a $100 savings.
Oh right I recall that conversation now. I don't think mine has that issue.
You guys are crazy. I wish I could be crazy today.

I tried it and it's saying invalid code. 
hmmmm

Tried it again, still says invalid... I'm not sure what I would be doing wrong. I haven't put my payment info in yet because I haven't got the code to work but I would think it would work regardless.
Loving the Silver Mine Shootout (and Lone Ranger theme) appreciation! It was one of my Top 5 sets of 2013. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=93415390&postcount=2643

Probably was "fixed". Sorry guys, should have mentioned that was a possibility. I was a mad fiend making my order, knowing that this would probably happen.

The more I look back at it the more I appreciate the theme. I never ended up getting the train or the showdown sets but everything else was just so solid. After buying the Stagecoach from Neonglow, I ended up picking up the rest of the sets at 50% + off as TRU was unloading old stock and Target was exiting Canada.
I've thought a few times about getting the showdown & train...they're still widely available around here.
Silver Mine Shootout is an amazing set - it's still on shelves, usually at 50% off.
Jeff Albertson

Glad the views on silver mine shootout are postive looking forward to that one.
It's been down to £30 or so here before it seems but nowhere sells it now so £45 on eBay isn't too bad

Absolutely love that setup! I'm looking forward to having a very similar one (minus the Cavalry Builder Set and Comanche Camp)!

Wow. I'd totally buy a second one if I ever happened upon a clearance one. That'd be so much fun.
I'm not sure I could improve upon it though, so maybe I'd just mirror it instead of trying something ridiculous. I could set them up as opposite cliff-faces at a valley entrance, maybe build something stretching between the two wooden platforms....
Ryan242004

No worries, just thought I'd give it a shot. Been wanting to pull the trigger on ewok village for awhile now lol. Maybe next time.

Second time Target messed up on those promo codes. Someone is gonna get a lashing for those mistakes. Once again, I was late to the party. Oh well. I'll just have to snag the modulars during double VIP and/or some cool free promo item with purchase.
I noticed the promo cube with Lightning lad was also gone from the Target website. Hope mine comes soon...I had it sent to store for pickup to avoid discovery by my wife.

You should come up with a wishlist and the price point you're willing to pay for each set. Once it matches that threshold, you just buy without further thought.
Ryan242004

Yeah that's a good idea. At this point though I'm pretty willing to just pay retail for that one, I have the feeling it's on it's way out and I don't want to miss the chance of getting one for retail.

There are some terrific entries in the "Pimp Rey's Speeder" contest over at Brothers-Brick.

The Galaxy Squad one is amazing:

Is Ewok Village actually a rare and precious set? I saw one lying around somewhere not long ago..
I dont think they all had it . Im pretty sure mine is from the first run and its fine.
Not really. What he means is he finally bought it cause he was able to get it at a really good price (20% off and free shipping, see the discussion about the Target promo earlier on this page. It seems to have been pulled)
Glad they took quality control seriously, though it doesn't seem to have been that widespread.
I can feel it... yes... it's close... finally a Black Panther minifig!! They better give him a cool helmet piece.
If it's like last year, it'll be 10-20% off sets that came out in 2014 or early 2015 that are due to retire. The LEGO Movie sets fit this description and we should see some sales on them.
Well, on EU S@H there are no Lego Movie sets anymore. It'll probably be a dissapointment then. When i was in the Lego Store this weekend, some sets where 5% off, like the Mini Cooper and Sidney Opera House. So I expect it to be in the line of that.

Sorry I've been out of the loop, but are there any good BF deals on LEGO sets this year? I checked individual store ads, but nothing jumped out at me.
I'm wondering about deals for the LEGO Dimension sets (not the starter kits, but just the sets)

A set later in the summer, eh? New Marvel UCS, or it is a very spoilerific set.
not sure if posted but gaming side has a code for jet.com for a discount on games and a poster stated they applied it to lego sets too.

Walmart will have a 1500+ piece bucket for $30.
Target will have the LEGO Movie Dropship, Creator Bike Shop & Cafe or City Arctic Base Camp for $55
Toys R Us will have Ultra Agents sets at 30% off.
Captain America and the magic bullet set.

Just watch them do a printed normal head.
I don't know if I've bitched about it here before (probably) but I just... why they don't take the Flash's helmet, paint it blue with white wings, and print an A on the front is something that continues to befuddle me. It would be so much more accurate too because then, like the movies, you could take his helmet off and have him fight without it.
Black Friday deals from S@H and the LEGO Store:
Offers
-Free Gingerbread House with $99 purchase (while supplies last)
-Free Shipping on orders
Some very enticing discounts!
I'm going the S@H route, and hopefully I can pick up a 76041 Hydra Fortress Smash.
And if per chance they add some 79018 Lonely Mountain sets... oh man.
Big discounts on LEGO Dimensions too!

The exact same two that caught my attention. I completely forgot I need to get Hydra Fortress Smash and at that price it's a must get.
