Completely sold out in local stores in Australia after the black friday deal of 20% off. Was ready to jump on it but seems many had the same idea. Glad the set is doing well sales wise!

When can we expect either leaked details or official images for an August release date?

I think I’ll buy this set, love the colour and the detail. Never bought the Chiron but this looks too good to pass up. I’m thinking of waiting for a sale here in Australia but I think that might be too risky, great chance it will be out of stock and I’ll have to buy at full price anyway.

Awesome, i’ll keep an eye on your progress.

I’d pay good money for instructions on this Robotic Arm. Any chance anyone would over time or unlikely?

Does anyone know when this set will be available through retail stores (Australia for me) rather than just on Lego.com? Put together enough store vouchers but I have no idea when it will be available here yet. Can’t remember how long it took the Falcon to be a available after initial release.

Bought this because it was nearly half price. Enjoyed the build but I think it’s way too slow.

Great idea, I wondered myself why they wouldn’t go a metal hook for a massive premium set like this.

Which is when?

That’s a real shame because it’s something i’d absolutely love to put together.

When are we expected to get proper pictures?

Can’t wait for this set, are we likely to see more information tomorrow?

Any word when we should see the deals for the VIP card?

How many cylinders does it look like the pneumatic set has? I'd love to see a set again like the back-hoe 8544 with 10 cylinders, really think there is a market for pneumatic models.

Still haven’t received my VIP card in Australia, I managed to pre order on the first day too. Anyone else that got one early still waiting?

After bag one and two I was content, seemed to have quite a few small pieces after bag three but I don’t think I missed anything. When is your reiview up Jim?

Received it yesterday, just started tonight and have completed bags 1 & 2. Only 15 to go I wish they would tell you what spare parts are left after each bag because I always question if I’ve missed something!

My falcon was dispatched on the 18th of September and I still haven’t received any tracking updates. Tried contacting lego and they said it’s still in the time frame of 9-18 business days for delivery. Just seems weird they haven’t even told me it’s arrived in the country.

Mine was dispatched from their warehouse 5 days ago, still haven’t received any tracking updates so I spoke with Lego today and they’re investigating Monday. Did your tracking take 24 hours to update after it left the warehouse?

Were any other Australians charged a foreign fee on top of the $1300 we had to pay?

Mine still in the warehouse so hopefully gets sent in the coming week! The box better be in pristine condition when it arrives.

Brilliant thanks, without any detail just a quick one, enjoyed it so far?

Legend, thanks for clearing that up. So has anyone seen any reviews yet?

Oh wow I didn't think of that!

No luck still, had it in my bag then i was logged out.
