morning bros,
any scout report of 2014 City from BBT, preferable Tropicana City branch as nearer to where i stay (kepong), MV damn far and jam plus tol..haha
i think 2014 City price decreased as compared to 2013, suppose BBT will give further 10% for member, even better bargain smile.gif

2014 City sets cheaper coz ITS much smaller compare to 2013... look at the Police Station then you know what I mean... BBT now only give 5% for 2014 sets... crappy...

oh, thanks for sharing sad.gif
but i found the 2014 police station price still high as 2013 set...

Hmmm... Figured I haven't been hauling lately.  Went out and got myself a few items.

Its a TRU exclusive, 60009 was on 20% sale @ http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?p...dSrc=search&cp=. when I got it. 

It's also available Rm279.90 at TRU local stores which sadly never go on sale.

Personally, 5 figs and a dog, a building, a boat, a helicopter and a truck all in a CITY set + TRU exclusive.  Had to get it!

just bought my first ship 79008 Pirate Ship Ambush without finance minister approval! tongue.gif
now i'm trying to figure out how to sneak in the big box tonight sweat.gif

try all the following excuses i used before: rclxms.gif

1) 20/30/50% discount
2) friend/seller extra set with cheap sale
3) damage/dented box with sale
4) shop/store closed down discount
5) shop/store price tag error
6) quietly smuggle in the bags without box and hide within the rest of the existing boxes/collection
7) wait till she asleep, go to car boot to take it

Modified the front and rear spoiler, and removed the roof.

Also made the Le Mans style race car based on some instructions found on the net.

it comes to a point most of all ppl would want to have perfect box if possible. nevertheless since item ship from overseas. do expect some minor creast. but usually with good handling. the scratches, friction and creast will be very minimal or negligable.

ok then i have a question. what about sought after sets like the so talked about the imperial flagship  brows.gif ? the 2 units displayed at amcorp. boxes are in no good shape major crease with dents with some minor peep hole and 1 of 4 seals detached  shocking.gif . yet still sold out at rm1,800.00. is it because these sets are too significant. ppl willing pay not even bothered? the strong point driving factor is to have it. so lets have your viewpoints on this...  hmm.gif

box really means nothing to me, no value and will goes into rubbish bin after opened...
i took the city museum set from collector's hunt at good price due to box with water damage, actually no box also i wouldn't mind...haha
