Very, very, lame boxing week sale this year from TRU. :down:

40% off select Lego Star Wars and Hero Factory

Yep, that is it. "select" sets.

Boo! I was hoping for another 50% off a theme like previous years.

Pictured on the flyer is 7961 Darth Maul's Sith Infiltrator ($89.99 > $53.97) and 9495 Gold Leader's Y-wing Starfighter (Above MSRP at $69.99 > $41.97).

I already have the Sith Infiltrator, and I'm not so keen on the Y-Wing (I do like the Leia minifig, which would go nice with Celebration Han and Luke). Any opinions on this set?

Not too, too bad... there will probably be better sales in the spring though...

Agree, after two straight years of boxing day shopping at Toys R Us with their 50% off deals, it is time for not having to get there early this year.

I have the newest x, y, and tie sets and found the ywing to be the most fun to build. It's very raw looking just like the movie.

The Y-Wing is tempting, but I think I'll pass. Not worth it for me to lineup at TRU early just for one Lego set that I'm only mildly interested in.

And it is not really 40% off on it since there is a $5 markup on the set to begin with.

I got the Y-Wing from the Boisbriand, Québec store. The shelf markers didn't even advertise the discount for that set...

It's not the nicest SW set, but having grown up with the original trilogy, it was a no-brainer!

This one's in the flyer but wasn't originally listed on the TRU web site on boxing day. It doesn't show up under the Boxing Day 40% Off Deals, nor can I figure out how to browse to it, but it is there. It showed up as a related product.

Darth Maul's Sith Infiltrator (7961)

On sale for $53.97 down from $89.99
