yeah...brickboytoys is selling at that range..you have to blame it on the gov for charging so high taxes. I wish I live in the states. can buy so many lego sets at so cheap prices.  somemore earning few thousand USD per month. tongue.gif

so you interested to buy this? i can see off at 599..tongue.gif

hey bro, from where you learnt that I am from US? I just said I "wish" I am living in the states. not that I "am" living in states la brother. I am one of the poor people like you living in Malaysia la.

I don't think you want to live in the states now if you know what i mean.....what good is cheap LEGO if you don't even have an income ?
if you are good at what you do you, hardworking, will be assured to have jobs/business, and earning there is way better than earning here.. plus most mid range items from food, legos, to cars there are comparable or cheaper priced to malaysia..
but I digress.. lets get back to lego.. tongue.gif smile.gif biggrin.gif

Now the question is, will Lego be cheaper??? laugh.gif laugh.gif

[/quote]

Lego will not be cheaper becoz of the tax imposed by the government, unless they declare the Legoland as duty free zone, so we can buy the Lego at cheaper price and additional some ciggies and alcohol after purchasing the Lego sets.

I'm surprised that the end of this year 2008, no warehouse clearance sales coz as Christmas is approaching, should have such sales ma.... sigh~~ cry.gif

[/quote]

even without tax or less tax (i..e at 10% typical) it won't be as cheap as US retail prices.. (best is looking like SG or HK/JP prices which I think is like 10-15% cheaper than out retail). and when US got sales even more crazy...

Lol, I left BIONICLE for Gundam and now I collect Transformers.
I like everything, so I had to limit myself and just collect one or two toy lines, hehe.

Besides their toys, BIONICLE is great-awesome (some Le talk here hehe) for their storyline, albeit not catching up with it makes you damn confused -I know I am-.

you should check out the TV series Sarah Connor Chronicles Season 2, macho terminator playing with lego bionicles.. laugh.gif
