Trudop561 Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 I received the July-August magazine a few days ago and there is just a page about the droid gunship.
chris_austin Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 I received my UK Lego club magazine a couple of weeks ago but it's really behind with regards to what we know here on EB. More importantly for the UK though is that Argos has started it's end of catalogue clearance sale today. There are a couple of sets on sale but the new catalogue is out on the 26th of July This should contain the new Clone Wars sets (or whichever ones they'll be selling). Although they may not be available until a later date, it's worth keeping an eye out for and trying to buy them anyway
Dark Sword Ragnarok Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 The Cloud City one was the loser however. So it's between the Mon Cal Cruiser and Palpatine's Office. WHAT?!?! Wait, how do you know that? Do you have a link or something to where it says this?
JimBee Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 WHAT?!?!Wait, how do you know that? Do you have a link or something to where it says this? DSR, please dont use bold text all of the time. On topic, he is probably guessing, because we just got a Slave 1, so thats two that have been done in the past. Not many people want another. However, both the MCC and the office seem really popular, so its probably going to be one of them.
commanderbly42 Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 Actually, it was in FBTB's chat with TLC reps. The Cloud City lost by a large margin. They didn't tell us who won though.
Justin2224 Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 another slave 1 would not be bad, as long as its Jangos
The Kid Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 I'm VERY sure the USA catalogue has Clone Wars sets and the UK one doesn't at all I wonder if my local Toys R Us will still be open at, say... 9:00am after the 12:01 opening? "On sale Midnight 25th July In Store and Online" TK
Trudop561 Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 The fan magazine or the catalog? The fan magazine I have not yet received the catalog And I'm not subscribed to the brickmaster magazine because it's not available in Canada.
The Rancor Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 "On sale Midnight 25th July In Store and Online"TK OMG! I looked round the TRU UK website for ages but I must have been looking in the wrong places Thanks for that link, it's a real help
alec634 Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 I saw the Magnaguard star fighter at Walmart yesterday they wouldn't let me buy it though
Algernon Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 I wish LEGO wasn't waiting. It's just frustrating fans... normally I can get new sets sooner than this from LEGO stores and TRU.
Justin2224 Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 last year all the sets were at my toys r us about a month early, and i new about them about 6, pics and everything, now it took awhile to get pics
Tarfful Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 (edited) I saw the Magnaguard star fighter at Walmart yesterday.They wouldn't let me buy it though. That sucks, better luck next time. Now I gotta try my luck with my local retail stores... -Tarfful EDIT: Looks like someone snagged 7665: AT-TE Walker! Let the hunting begin... good luck gentlemen and ladies.

Sithassassin Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 wow alec that sucks! you find a magnaguard starfighter, you get to the counter and BOP BOP " oh im sorry you cant buy this." i would have been soooo mad. Wow it looks like that ATTE come from the lego shop. dont you think that if walmart wouldn't let someone have it the lego shop wouldn't let someone have it, you know? anyway THE HUNT BEGINS!!!!!!
commandosevy Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 I wish LEGO wasn't waiting. It's just frustrating fans... normally I can get new sets sooner than this from LEGO stores and TRU. Thats what they want to do.... to increase sales.... driving people mad wanting the set will make them buy more...and theyll become satisfied with other sets they don't like... and buy them.
Justin2224 Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 ok so I'm gonna stick with my plan of the toys r us midnight madness. my mom'll get me the Republic Gunship and Separatist Spider Droid at the midnight madness for my birthday(the 24th) so i'll get better presents a day late
Sithassassin Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 yeah i cant wait for the midnite madness im gettin my dad to take me. im gettin the rep. gunship and the spider walker, im gonna get the ATTE later maybe when it goes on sale or for christmas.
darkrebellion Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 I have a question: If I buy some sets from the online TRU page meanwhile the midnight madness, I will receive the double poster or I need to go to the TRU store itself ?, I ask this because I don´t will be able to go to the store at the event and I really want to get one of those posters .
Justin2224 Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 yeah i cant wait for the midnite madness im gettin my dad to take me. im gettin the rep. gunship and the spider walker, im gonna get the ATTE later maybe when it goes on sale or for christmas. exact same thing with me but I'll get the republic fighter tank and DGS with the AT-TE for christmas or sooner
JimBee Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 ack, im broke now, so itll be a few months before I get one of these babies. Hopefully someone will do a review.
alec634 Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 I'm wondering if the double sided poster is the one we saw before page 29 cartoondude's post. I think that set number 7677 will be a clone battle pack. I noticed that they stopped selling them at Lego shop at home.
Dark Sword Ragnarok Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 (edited) DSR, please dont use bold text all of the time. On topic, he is probably guessing, because we just got a Slave 1, so thats two that have been done in the past. Not many people want another. However, both the MCC and the office seem really popular, so its probably going to be one of them. Uhh, I used bold text twice.. Okay, three times. Besides, it was for empathy. Also: On a similar topic, if you aren't a moderator, don't act like one. Actually, it was in FBTB's chat with TLC reps. The Cloud City lost by a large margin. They didn't tell us who won though. Oh, ok, good enough for me! Always trust everything on the internet! another slave 1 would not be bad, as long as its Jangos Jango's is exactly the same as Boba's though, just recolored. IMO, the colors on Boba's was better. Edited July 10, 2008 by Dark Sword Ragnarok
The Rancor Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 EDIT: Looks like someone snagged 7665: AT-TE Walker! I wonder if that belongs to a Lego employee...
