If you have a kiddo who always wants the latest and greatest LEGO set, I am sorry for your wallet’s loss. (Also, I feel your pain. We, too, have invested heavily in the Cult of LEGO.)
Right now Amazon has the LEGO Quinjet Aerial Battle set available for $56 shipped—a good $10-$14 less than it’s available anywhere else, and the cheapest price they’ve ever had it at. Of course, any time I pay over $20 for a LEGO set I die a little on the inside, but even I have to admit this one is pretty sweet (five minifigs included!).
I, um, have to close up my laptop now, before my son sees this.
Lucky for me this wasn’t a Lego City or Dino set, or I’d be shelling out. :0)
This isn’t a bad deal but also not the rock bottom best…from a price per brick point of view. To me anything over $0.10/brick is overpriced, and at $0.10/brick its normal. $0.05/brick is my “I think I need to buy it NOW” price and this sits nicely in between at $.076 per brick…
Angela, I agree with you to a point—if you have a kid who wants this NOW (it’s only been out a couple of months), this is probably the price to beat. Will it go lower, later? Of course!
I think we may need to buy this Mir. My son bought it last week for 69.99 in Target so we may need to rebuy this from Amazon and return it to Target to save 16 bucks. That’s a good idea, right? 🙂
Nope, already back up to $69, bummer!
