Lego Sale instore and online

I was in the Lego shop in Bluewater on Saturday and they had quite a few lines reduced by 33-50% stacked on the floor. The ones I bought were:

Exoforce - reduced from £10 to £5:

Grand Titan (item 7701)
Thunder Fury (item 7702)
Fire Vulture (item 7703)
If you want to see which ones they are, then here's a link to the Lego website: link

Racers - reduced from £7 to &3.50

Action Wheelie (item 8667)
Side rider 55 (item 8668)
Fire Spinner 360 (item 8669)
Jump Master (item 8670)
Of these, only Jump Master is still available from their inline store - link here .

There were quite a few other ranges too which were reduced by one third but I can't remember what they were.

Note these reductions are (or were) in-store only and not online - there's not much of a sale online right now.

I hope this is useful to somebody...

(I thought it deserved a mention though because it was what I called a real sale - real price reductions and plenty of each so you actually had a chance to nab a bargain!)

  • Not to hijack this thread but to add to it, I was in Poundstretcher (Gold St), Northampton today and they had some Lego racers for £1.99.

    I don't know if they're the same size as the one in the post above but the item I got was #8642 (Monster Crusher Garage range). I think the original price quoted was £4.99.

    You can see the one I got here:

    Not sure which others they had - being a parent I was just handed it to pay for LOL

    I don't think the one above is the exact same range as the ones I mentioned at the top of this thread. Lego seems to do Racers for aged 6+ (like the one mentioned by Outbidder) but the ones I got from the Lego store are for 7+ and I am presuming have more pieces (the Jump Master one has 105 pieces for example).

    That said, £1.99 is a good price for a stocking filler or a goody bag!

    Does anyone know if there is a Lego store in Birmingham now? Last time we went there the one in the Bullring had closed. My son is gutted as he loves Lego and we don't know where our nearest store is now.:cry:

    According to Lego's website, the Bullring store closed in August and so the only other UK stores are in Bluewater, Brighton, Kingston, and Milton Keynes

    Here's a link to the store locator page in the UK: link

    Just noticed that the Lego online store have lots of items in their Sales and Deals section, most of it 50% off:
