The big models that I saw were:
10234: Sydney Opera House
10232: Palace Cinema
10228: Haunted House (box was in bad shape)
10227: B-Wing Starfighter
10223: Kingdoms Joust
9474: The Battle Of Helm's Deep
10233: Horizon Express
75021: Republic Gunship

All of the sets were cheaper than prices in Malaysia.

Prices are tax free, just like duty free in Langkawi?

Where to get the tax refund? Airport?

My wife going there next week, maybe can get her to haul something back.  rclxms.gif

For ClickBrick, you can just show your passport to the cashier and purchase over ¥10,800 worth of products to be eligible for tax free. This is the case for ClickBrick Venus Fort but not ClickBrick @Mitsui Outlet Park. For other places like Bic Camera or Yodobashi Camera, there is a tax refund counter within the same building (maybe on another floor) to claim back the tax amount.
