If I were to buy a spare Protector for the recolours and the new pieces, which one would you guys recommend? And why?

Already bought three PoS in total so I guess that's the thing

With the Hero Pack however I took PoI, as I have quite a lot of CCBS but I really wanted, again those new piston add-ons, this time in white :P

Like others, I'd probably recommend the Protector of Stone. I'm getting an extra one myself for the trans-neon green bones, the recoloured flame bolts and the dark orange shells (all those will inevitably be useful to me) as well as more silver piston add-ons (also very useful especially if you plan to swap out the gold for silver on Onua, like I have).

Reminds me, now that I have a computer that works with my SD card again, I must photograph my modified Protectors and upload them at some point :classic:

Yup, I did the same thing to my Onua. Despite all the people saying that it works well, it just didn't look good to me in person. He looks far more unified with silver BIONICLE shells.

Didn't they sent you an email ? It says that they don't withdraw your money until they send the order.

I'm sorry friend, but ... Tahu and the large Toa are going to cost $30.

On the other hand, the smaller Toa are $20, which I feel is a decent price:

I converted the $30 AUD into pound sterling and its just over price as we pay here in the UK and just under for the smaller Toa...and I thought they were decent value at this price! Oh well, personal thing I spose...

I had the same issue and spent a long phone call discussing that along with other things, apparently its an error, though i think its intentional that the shop is down so they can fix the issue with the Hero Pack situation.

And the Hero Pack can't be bought anymore. My order is still "In Warehouse", I hope they will send it to me.

To be honest i'm intrigued to see how Lego will handle this... keep us informed?

Mmm mm those shipping costs =P.

Thankfully I don't live too far away from a LEGO store, so I'll just pop in from time to time and snag a set and a Hero Pack. Looking forward to when that hits the US!

Man, this thread's gotten weird. Scalping and people complaining about not being able to buy a GWP pack.

Question: Was Lego the one running that promotion where you got a Toa and the corresponding protector for a reduced price?

Posted

Urgh, I knew I should have ordered from S@H yesterday, because now I have decided to buy something so I can get the Hero Pack - I can't get into my VIP account, saying I'm not logged in even though I am (and according to the LEGO ID section I'm definitely logged in)? For what it's worth, I'm also unable to access orders placed. But honestly, this isn't caused by them attempting to fix the Hero Pack issue (where you could order more than one), is it?

What I find ridiculous though is that they can't even be bothered to put up a notice on their Customer Service site stating that S@H has some technical difficulties, because it's clearly affecting all accounts and not just mine and they know about it :hmpf_bad:

I know it's slightly off topic, but if I ordered now while I'm unable to access my VIP account, would I still get VIP points on my purchase or not? And to anybody who contacted LEGO about this issue (it's too late to contact them today myself now), did they say anything about how long it would take them to fix the apparent "error"? I want to get my order in sooner rather than later so I can secure myself a Hero Pack without having to resort to the aftermarket.

They have 'Power Up Packs' where you order the Toa and corresponding Protector in one item on USA S@H at least, but they are at the exact same price as to get them individually. They might see a sale at some point, but I doubt it.

I don't know about cheaper, but they did release combo packs with the Toa/Protector duos. It's on the shop page.

Might be, or could just be maintenance. Happens from time to time.

While they aren't the best at letting people know it, it depends on the scale of the issue and how long they reasonably expect to take fixing it (could be fixed within the hour, and then all the fuss is for nothing). Putting up a site notice probably costs them more business than the occasional refund.

At least for the US, if you show proof of purchase within a reasonable timeframe, they'll retroactively add the points to your account if it doesn't stick for the order.

It's the problem on Lego's end but I didn't like the idea of possible need to discuss with them how I exploited their system and in the process making it longer to arrive.

That's why I'll rather have another PoI.

I contacted them earlier today (About 4-5 hours ago) and spent about 10 minutes with the customer service trying to explain the issues as they were not aware of the issue at the time. Eventually i convinced them to test it, and they did and had the same issue. They let me know they were going to report it to their boss. As such i guess its affecting everyone.

Chances are this error will be fixed by tommorow evening or something like that, i dont expect it will last too long, though i am suprised the issue is still their at the moment. Though it may be fixed sooner, as currently the issue prevents people from buying which is losing Lego sales.

Would'nt celebrate until they arrive, but thanks for the update

Appears the error has been fixed

This might seem like a silly question, but how do you see what your order status is..?

Lego shop page, top of the lego shop page between 'Gift Cards' and 'Customer Service' click that. It should show the orders and their status.

Appears the account error is fixed, at least for the UK - time to go order another Onua and PoS and that hero pack so I can make some Bionicle 2015 MOC's! I can't remember the last time I placed an order under £50 on S@H - guess that shows I really want the hero pack :sweet:

I think that will probably do me until the summer wave hits stores now - unless another Bionicle GWP comes along unexpectedly of course :tongue:

Thanks a bunch! :sweet:

How did I not see it..! haha :laugh:

No problem :)

Well we are still missing a Gali transparent mask, so i would'nt be suprised if that becomes a promotional item unexpectedly in the Summer :p

I'm kinda puzzled about the pricing you got in the US. In Germany, the big Toa cost 19,99 €, while the smaller ones cost 14,99€ (and the Protectors go for 9,99€). Granted, I don't know how about the wealth of the two currencies here, but still...
