Well, that’s a good news, I guess.
September 30, 20213 yr Its possible that for Australia it will only be available from Shop @ Home and not from LEGO stores or other retailers. Would make sense and has happened before (I had to order the purple and gold Metalbeard mech from The LEGO Movie 2 online because it never made it to even the LEGO stores)

The Asia pacific region never produced those 3 sets.
September 30, 20213 yr UK S@H has them in stock. Limit of 20! I’ve bought 20 and will be more than willing to sell them at normal retail price to anyone who isn’t able to get any (no resellers). Their page wasn’t public until the very last minute when they went live.

October 1, 20213 yr The series 2 bandmates have now officially appeared on US S@H as "coming soon" but without a release date listed. I called my local Lego store earlier today and the employee I spoke with said that it was one of the October 1st releases that would be available tomorrow, though it wasn't entirely clear if they actually had them waiting in the stockroom yet. I'll be curious to see if any other retailers get them around here.
October 1, 20213 yr We may think LEGO has made a mess of it. But these will probably fly off the shelves at full RRP now.

October 1, 20213 yr Awesome, Pchan!! I got confirmation email, so excited and relieved your shipment confirmation has come through.
October 1, 20213 yr Has anyone in the u.s. found these? Seems odd that they are still "coming soon" on shop at home.
October 1, 20213 yr I just called customer service for Canada. The representative there told me that these will definitely be released in North America, she checked for the chicken stuntz Nike think and for the bandmates and she told me that basically it was just that the shipment had either not arrived in time because they were supposed to be released today or that they didn’t open the box to check on the stock. She said that they should be released soon and that the problem was only in North America
October 1, 20213 yr Hmmm…. I can see Bandmates Seires 2 on American Lego S@H website. BUT i notice two odd things. 1.) it doens’t say “SERIES 2” or “2” but just “Bandmates” 2.) it says “Coming Soon”, so I don’t know when it will be available. 8 minutes ago, Megbricks said: I just called customer service for Canada.

October 1, 20213 yr They weren't on the shelf at my local LEGO store so I asked an employee if they were going to carry them. He said they received a memo from corporate stating that Walmart would be the only store in the US to sell Bandmates series 2. If true, that is going to be a headache.

The only way they can be sure they'll be discounted sufficiently to sell out quickly? It's going to make getting a fresh box a pain for those that want all of them.

I visited my local LEGO store (US) yesterday after work and while they hadn't received the Vidiyo figures yet (contrary to what I'd been told on the phone the prior day), the employee I spoke to said that they were only delayed and that they'd still be receiving them. In fact, I overheard her confirming to another AFOL that the figures were listed on the internal database that the store uses to reorder product. Perhaps they will be a Walmart "exclusive" in the same way that, for example, the HP chess set is a Target "exclusive" here in the states - exclusive among third party retailers, but still available from LEGO directly. At least my trip out to the store wasn't a total bust. City Stuntz bikes are delightful.
October 4, 20213 yr Author "The LEGO Group has now confirmed (via the LEGO Ambassador Network) that 43108 Bandmates will launch in North America in November, reiterating that the second series of VIDIYO minifigures isn’t cancelled – only delayed.
