This is old, plus the blogger now based in Australia if I'm not mistaken.
LEGO used to be cheap in HK but as what the other bros here said, cheaper to get locally now. Did some price comparison as was planning to go HK end of last year, but boy still small and currency not good - delay plans until son is older.

You mean LEGO can be built?!?! Just kidding bro - I still have many MISB sets, example the Arkham Asylum Breakout (10937) I bought from Toys R Us in 2012, still MISB.

Don't need to buy - save pic and jilat screen only. Actually, I've considered this before. Since I have many MISB sets and sometimes I wonder "why did I even buy this? I could've saved some money and can still admire this toy/figure online."

Of course easier said than done, and I fail every time. Some I manage to delay buying, but only because something else caught my eye.

If someone has tips, please share. But I think this is the wrong group to ask for help/support. You all only say "buy now, regret later".

I heard can. Need to pay some deposit and leave within 45 minutes. Also got minimum spend required.

Please correct me if I'm wrong. I'd suggest to tag at main page but I don't think people would check there these days

Good morning, You beat me to it!

Hope it's not more than RM 1k. Can go Pokai and its surprise set ...

This guy sounds like he never went to ANY theme park before - complaining about the prices?

Eventually all will make it to Malaysia except for really really exclusives. How much is the Billund Airport set worth now?

Reissue is a possibility, not restock. There was some controversy regarding this set sometime last year. There were some articles stating that the roof was like the roof of a "mosque" or something like that ... anyone remember that?

I think better not keep your hopes up. I was at the Curve TRU yesterday. Nothing. If I have time during lunch, I will do another scouting mission.

In the meantime, please see this ... my "conversation" with TRU Malaysia on Facebook



Like what bro ilfort said, they probably time it to coincide with release of the exclusive Monkey set.

I'm really liking the new Batcave. But looks like will be expensive. The "Study Room" wallpaper looks quite nice too, even though it's just a small section of the Wayne Manor.

The Series 14 Tigress head mould probably re-used for Catwoman too.

And I want to have a closer, hi-red look at Alfred. He looks like my custom Alfred from this blur photos. And of course all the minifigs.

Guess I'm considered "old timer"? Since when I started LEGO in 2012, they sold Modulars and Exclusive sets at Toys R Us

It's a must have for die-hard Bat-fans! Plus it has 2 exclusive minifigures you can't get unless you buy them separately. Not cheap though. I got it cause I'm a Batfan and also because of the Batman Begins suited minifig and Heath Ledger Joker.

Sweet! Now to decide what do I get with my giftcard and points. Few Trooper Battle Packs or the Battle Of Takodana (which will wipe out all my gift card and points) and topup for 1 Trooper Battle Pack. Kinda want the Kylo Ren minifig, but guess cheaper to buy minifigs online ...

Decisions, decisions.

Yeah. Sad lah. Have to change lims. A GB HQ gone just like that ...

Which set? Obi-Wan Jedi Starfighter?

Counting down, Batman v Superman ...

The comparison between new and old versions of the DC characters.

New - Left
Old - Right

All. You gotta get them all! *poison mode ON*

Cause each set got its own pros ... 😝
Small Set - Armored Batman, Batsignal
Medium Set - Batmobile
Big Set - Batjet, Wonder Woman 😍😍

But I found out from bro ilfort that the Superman has slight difference. Small set Superman has no boots but big set Superman does.

I've seen someone offer to buy a Tumbler box so if you can, better hang on to them boxes

Reporting live from TRU 1Utama.

Looks like not a full shipment as not many 2016 City sets. Some SW sets not found or been completely wiped out.

No Batman v Superman sets at all.

Looking for First Order Battle Pack - to get with points. None left or not in yet. Micro fighters also almost all gone.

Even for S15 CMF wiped out.

Maybe more stock coming for Monkey promo.

Tempted. But I only really want it for the First Order Troopers ...

I got mine from LEGO SHOP The Curve.

S - RM 74.90
M - RM 179.90
L - RM 349.90



After the new TV Spot, feel like bricking the Batmobile now ...

Btw, already saw someone selling Batmobile set for RM 250 in one of the FB groups. Sold out already meh???

That's disappointing to hear. But I feel the quality of my Batman v Superman figures also seems lighter. I don't have a scale to weigh it. So far only opened the big set. Maybe paranoid


That's crazy. Lucky I got them on launch day then.

You walk to Curve? You work nearby or ... ?

I not SW collector so I dunno. I trust you

Don't worry - it's still January 2016

Since you're the sifu, I want to ask your opinion. If I have RM 100 giftcard (expiring in April 2016), should I get this trooper pack? Is it worth it? I only want the troopers and not that interested in the guys in black uniforms (First Order officers?). I guess troopers also selling RM 30 - 40 each on eBay so pretty good buy I think.

My target list is quite small for now. It's either:

Trooper Battle Pack x 2 + cash top up - RM 40
Obi-Wan Jedi Starfighter + cash top up - RM 30
Battle Of Takodana + cash top up - RM 200 (got Kylo, Finn and 2 Troopers - but kind of pricy)
Misc City sets when they become available

Also don't want to spend too much as other pre-ordered stuff will be coming.

And Brick Bank. And Batcave. And Resistance Fighters X-Wing (Blue/White)

Lucky you!

Actually, these ships totally sold out after the release of the movie. Plus, it's not only Star Wars has worldwide shortage - other sets as well. They announced this back in October 2015.

I've been waiting for Jurassic World restock at Toys R Us and haven't even seen it since then.

With so much hype for "The Force Awakens", I doubt they will retire these sets so quickly. They're just behind schedule. LEGO probably need to pay Disney more for the license this time after the takeover and Disney paid alot for the franchise! Someone needs to make their money back!

I wonder if the China factory is producing these new sets now

That's good. Unfortunately their location is not so ideal for me. Located in malls I hardly go to. I still have the Brick Brothers membership too but haven't bought anything in a long time from them.

Hard to say worth it or not. Depends on the individual. I personally will avoid paying higher price.
However, once upon a time, I said no to CMF Bunny Series 7 at RM 60 cause I thought it was "too high", in the end, I paid almost RM 200 for it cause I wanted to complete the animal suit figures

Then again, we don't know when restock will arrive and how long is the waiting list.

I'm not having high hopes for my Palace Cinema and won't (can't afford) to pay higher price now. Maybe (hoping) can get Brick Bank at retail price.
