Shakar Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 That's great! I guess an Italian January release is nearly confirmed now. Most online shops point to the same conclusion. Quote
GK733 Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 This certainly not is eyecandy... freaking taxes in Finland... Large Toa 24,95€ Medium Toa, LoSS 17,95 € Protectors 9,95€ Quote
Gatanui Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 (edited) That's great! I guess an Italian January release is nearly confirmed now. Most online shops point to the same conclusion. All German online shops I've found so far point to February, unfortunately. :/ Edited January 1, 2015 by Gatanui Quote
MakutaDreadscythe Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 (edited) Sets are available on LEGO S@H for the UK! My wallet is ready. EDIT: Well at least Tahu is anyway, you have to play around with the URL a bit first. Give it a few hours I'd say. Edited January 1, 2015 by MakutaDreadscythe Quote
Shakar Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 (edited) All German online shops I've found so far point to February, unfortunately. :/ Italian shops I meant. January 7th, 16th, 20th, 30th- these are the dates I found. Germany is such a big market for Lego they treat it as separate from the rest of Europe (getting the sets earlier, etc..). It might be that Europe mainland and UK are getting the sets in January while Germany gets a February release, as unusual as it might sound.Also, online shops and stores are different things. When 2014 Chima Ultrabuilds reached stores here and in other European countries, they weren't even present on S@H yet. So the February release might refer to S@H- sets could reach German stores earlier, as it often seems to happen there. Edited January 1, 2015 by Shakar Quote
Dorek Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 Got my first 2015 sets! Protector of Fire and Tahu. Haven't built Tahu yet; POF is super cool looking, although lacking in playability. Those stubby arms are pretty ridiculous =P Quote
wghost Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 (edited) It might be that Europe mainland and UK are getting the sets in January while Germany gets a February release, as unusual as it might sound. I lold... I wish, but nope, unfortunately. Large Toa 24,95€ Medium Toa, LoSS 17,95 € Protectors 9,95€ Wow. Just wow. Edited January 1, 2015 by wghost Quote
Dorek Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 Just by the way, Tahu looks INCREDIBLY cool with the NYCC mask. Quote
DuckBricks Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 Well,if the 'Mask Maker' is Ekimu,then based on his animation model,he's the size of a Protector So perhaps we will get two protector sized models in one $20 package... Quote
Nekchir Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 Been thinking about just buying all the sets that I'm missing online, instead of wasting time hoping store-to-store. So perhaps we will get two protector sized models in one $20 package... Nah, I think the duo set is $30 if I remember, so one of the characters is going to have to be at least the size of a $20 Toa.

It might be that Europe mainland and UK are getting the sets in January while Germany gets a February release, as unusual as it might sound. Well, it happened with "The Lego Movie" which came out quite late in Germany. I don't get why but it wouldn't be the first time. Also if you change the region in the "themes" page, Bionicle appears (even if there is no page yet) for most of the European countries. However it doesn't for Spain and Germany. It may be a matter of hours though. Quote

It's good though that the prices on the shop@home are the most expensive as the sets can get in here, I'm still afraid that I have to use 23€ to get a single Tahu. And I'm planning on buying all of these! Quote
Gatanui Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 I've just been told BIONICLE will start selling in my LEGO Store tomorrow. Yay! Quote

I lold... I wish, but nope, unfortunately. Literally just ordered the sets, so yes. Just got them in the UK from the Lego Shop, so will definitely get the sets in January.

Agent Fusion Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 So, Bionicle's out. Cool. W000000000000000000T Quote

It doesn't show for Italy either, but all other 2015 themes seem to be there (including Ninjago, which was rumoured to come out as late as March or April). They're existing themes though, while BIONICLE needs to be added as a separate section.And @Gatanui yeah, I knew it! Now I'm 99% sure the sets are coming out in January for most of Europe. Hopefully I should find them next week or the other... Quote
Nekchir Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 So, Bionicle's out. Cool. W000000000000000000T Yeah, lol. So now what do we do? Quote
Mandate Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 Yeah, lol. So now what do we do? Petition to bring back Hero Factory? Quote
Dorek Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 Petition to bring back Hero Factory? I'm on board! Although I do quite love the new sets so far. And the rapid shooter is tight. Quote

Mesonak Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 (edited) I'm okay with a Bring Back HF movement. I'd love for it to run concurrently with BIONICLE and be a minifigure-based constraction mech theme. I can dream. ;__; Edited January 1, 2015 by Mesonak Quote

Rayskull Posted January 2, 2015 Posted January 2, 2015 (edited) I liked the final herofactory concept..but the execution was not so great in my opinion. My primary issue is the cockpits that left their legs dangling... That ruined almost every mecha set, a boring and poorly conceived thing it was. The gearbox, sixshot shooters, more transparent bones and protector sizes are the freshest ideas. I've never bought so many sets. Edited January 2, 2015 by Rayskull Quote
