[Canada] ToysRUs 50% off Select LEGO Star Wars Sets

Post by Toys N Bricks » Wed Jan 16, 2013 6:51 pm

For 2 weeks from January 18-31, Toys R Us Canada will be offering "up to 50% off" six LEGO Star Wars sets. On the flyer, it shows their exclusive Hoth Echo Base for $59.97 (reg.$119.99) and Star Wars Anakin's & Sebulba's Podracers for $59.97 (reg.$119.99). I believe the other 4 sets should be 50% off as well. Free shipping when you purchase 3 or more LEGO sets.

Update: Here are the other sets that are on sale for half price.

10215 UCS Jedi Starfighter $44.97 (reg. $89.99)
7961 Darth Maul's Sith Infiltrator $44.97 (reg. $89.99)
7931 T-6 Jedi Shuttle $39.97 (reg. $79.99)
7964 Republic Frigate $77.49 (reg. $154.99)

I will check it out on Friday, and probably pick up the Echo Base...

Wishfull thinking, the remainning 4 set will be Imperial Shuttle (10212), Super Star Destroyer Executor (10221), R2-D2 (10225), and Death Star (10188). Ok kidding aside, my guess will be Obi-Wan's Jedi Starfighter (10215) be one of them for sure, since after the last two sales, they still have so much stock.

"OVER 6 TO CHOOSE FROM!"

I'm not sure if I should chuckle, or scratch or my head.

They're probably amongst the remaining REX-Packaging sets. Which one?

My second guess would be any of the remainning 2010 and 2011 set they have a lot of stock on. Something like,
8096 Emperor Palpatine's Shuttle
8095 General Grievous' Starfighter
8091 Republic Swamp Speeder
8088 ARC-170 Starfighter
7869 Battle for Geonosis
7915 Imperial V-wing Starfighter
7929 The Battle of Naboo
7930 Bounty Hunter Assault Gunship
7956 Ewok Attack
or any of the 2010 2011 Battle Packs

I was just in my local TRU. They have next to nothing in the Star Wars section. No podracer and no Hoth Echo Base. If I had to base what would be included solely from what was out on the shelf today, I would guess:

Sith Fury Class Interceptor
Gold Leaders Y-Wing
Palpatine's Arrest
Jabba's Palace
Malevolence
Gungan Sub

But I can't see them putting Jabba's Palace or Palpatine's Arrest on that much of a discount. But other then a couple of Sith Infiltrators and a few Planets sets, there was next to no other sets out. I suppose they could be planning to put out the stuff on sale tomorrow, but it seems so odd to have such little selection when just last week they had most of, if not all the 2013 sets there. I will definitely check it out during my lunch hour tomorrow.

I was recently in a TRU in toronto and based on stock still available for the older sets my guess of the likely four could be:

8096 Emperor Palpatine's Shuttle
7930 Bounty Hunter Assault Gunship
10215 Obi Wan Starfighter

either 7869 Battle for Geonosis or 9493 Gold Leaders Y-Wing

I would be shocked if TRU is allowing 50% off the recent 2012 sets

I second that. If that do happen, I think it should be called the beginning to the end of TRU closing sale. And your list seem about right except for the Y-Wing, it is still pretty new to go on for 50% off.

and I'll third. TRU won't drop 2013 sets like that.

BTW, my local flyer shows 7962 and 7879. Plus, it does states that 4 sets are eligible. I'm from Qc...

Only three sets are showing as 50% on their website. Two from the flier, and the UCS Jedi Starfighter.

It appears that the UCS Jedi Starfighter will soon be given away - or they will pay folks to take it... jeesh, they must have ordered skids of these.

Hoth Echo is a great deal! I wonder what's on sale at the store. My bets are on Palpatine's Shuttle, General Grievous, etc. - all the retired stuff that was on sale before.

Highly likely it seems. My bet is on another 2010 set. They must have ordered like tons of the 10215 Obi Wan Starfighter, and I will wait until they give it away for parts.

Went to a TRU and the Darth Maul's Sith Infiltrator (7961) was the only other set that was on sale . They were having technical difficulties so the sales guy was scanning all the Star Wars sets manually. None of the new sets were on sale as we all assumed.

The Darth Maul Infiltrator isn't too bad of a set - worth considering for 50% off...

If there are any lovely Canadians who have picked up an extra 10215, I would like to purchase one! I missed it here in the US and want one for my personal collection (to build, not to sell).

Thanks! Please PM if interested.

all three of the 50% off sets are sold out online. I was on there at 1am and thought they would start early but now have to check out stores since I totally forgot to check this morning and they were in my cart too but disappeared now
