Dark Brickz Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 The next person who drops a question mark off a question is going to get whacked! Now, the Solar Sailor was spotted in Wal*Mart in Michigan. If you want it so badly, just go drive 400 miles to get the measly set 2 days before it comes on shop@home.Of course, I am special enough to be drive 500 miles to get Anakin's starfighter and not be criticized. And, don't bother looking in stores for Ahsoka's starfighter. Just order it on shop@home like I did! how is that possible the solar sailer is a TRU exclusive... where did you get this info from?

Motti Posted January 1, 2009 Posted January 1, 2009 All of the new sets (including the solar sailer) are arriving this week at my local LEgo storte. I've checked TRus, kamrts and walmarts half a dozen times. They are already out. Hope i'll be the first to get the solar sailer on EB. Quote

Here: Posted by allnet28 on 27 December 2008i got this set at wal mart and there was one there so i quickly bought it, its size is pretty decent. the new count dooku minifig is awesome and it comes with 2 magna guards. to add to your collection PROS: count dooku minifig good for collection room inside ship 2 magna guards CONS: little driver minifig is kinda lame. From a guy on brickset. Not sure if he's lying, though if he is I'll alert the site owner and have the grubby little liar banned. Edited January 3, 2009 by Darth Legolas Quote

Tinn-man Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 I found all of the star wars sets (minus the battle packs) at my local target along with all new city, pirates, and indiana jones about 3 days before christmas. I went back two days ago to see if they had the battle packs in yet, and there was nothing, only the pirate ship, a few small castle sets, some bionicle (spelling?) and some small city sets. Quote

ALL of them? Even the solar sailer? Quote
posades Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 I don't understand why the battle packs are so rare; I've been to Toys R Us, 2 Target's, 3 Walmart's, and Kmart and have yet to see one. Are they only being sold in specific stores? Quote

Are they only being sold in specific stores? Ae you referring to the Battle Packs in general? Or just the new wave? It's only just January...they'll come soon. Sheesh - take it easy, we wont see much of them here until February. Quote
Matteo Kenobi Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 Unfortunately KimT is right and I fear we won't see many 09 sets until February or late January, I went to Target and Toys R Us for the last time in 2 weeks searching for the sets and they have nothing, I think Toys R Us may have had them at one point but they flew out the door within the first few hours. I gave in and just went to S@H to buy what I wanted, even though some stuff is back ordered there to I guess patience really is a virtue Quote
Motti Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 My lego store is completelty restocking to-morrow. inclusing all of the new sets except for the solar sailer, which is the one I want. Quote
ADHO15 Posted January 9, 2009 Posted January 9, 2009 I've not been following this thread so I don't know if this question has been recently answered but has anyone seen anyhting of the mini Soulless One and V-19 I found on the Target website? Has anyone bought them or seen them in stores at all? Quote

Has anyone bought them or seen them in stores at all? As far as I know neither of these will be released for regular sale. They're promotionals and I even believe someone was told that TLG has decided to stop the production of minis as regular sets. Sorry. Quote

Sorry. It's alright. Minis aren't my thing so I wouldn't buy them anyway. The Mini Soulless One was the first set I've discovered so I was just asking about it! Thanks anyway! Quote
Motti Posted January 9, 2009 Posted January 9, 2009 I can't believe that 7752 Dooku's Sailer is available in almost every country (previously backordered)but not the US. It's the set I expect most, yet it's the only one they're holding back as if to taunt me . Tell me if any of you spot it. Surely they won't forsake the US for ever? Quote

MaxGoof Posted January 10, 2009 Posted January 10, 2009 Shop at Home says that Ahsoka's Starfighter is "Hard to Find"... is it exclusive to one retail store? Which? Quote

Darth Legolas Posted January 10, 2009 Posted January 10, 2009 Great news everyone! I believe I have discovered the USD price of Dooku's Solar Sailor! I hope I don't jinx it though. In Britain: Ahsoka's fighter: $30, Dooku's Sailor: $40. If Ahsoka's is $10 under from USD, so is the Solar Sailor. In France: Ahsoka's Fighter: $50, Dooku's Sailor: $60. If Ahsoka's starfighter is $10 over from USD, so is the Solar Sailor. Meaning the Solar Sailor will be $50, the perfect price, and not the rumored $80! :thumbup: Quote
Dark Brickz Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 ok buddy's listen up solar sailer is up for sale on TRU.com its 49.99 usd so hurry and get yours. asap Quote
Motti Posted January 13, 2009 Posted January 13, 2009 Thanks so much for the tip. I just got the solar sailer at 50 USD, so you actually were right, Darth Legolas. But I had to pay another 5 for tax, and chose next day delivery for 25 dollars more =80 dollars Quote
MaxGoof Posted January 13, 2009 Posted January 13, 2009 I was halfway to ordering the Solar Sailer, but at $50+tax+shipping, I'm gonna wait and get it from Lego Shop, where I bet it'll be $10 cheaper to begin with. Quote
iH Master 13uilder17 Posted January 13, 2009 Posted January 13, 2009 (edited) I got a question. At my Lego store in the mall, I've been waiting for 8014 the Clone Troopers Walker Pack, and when I go they only have the Assassin Droids Speeder. Nothing else from 2009! I checked back 2 weeks later and they still don't have 8014. Also they advertise the Republic Fighter tank and the Sepratist Spider Droid by building models of it and hanging it throughout the stores. Yet they don't have any through the store. When i ask if they have any, they say they never arrived. Edited January 13, 2009 by iH Master 13uilder17 Quote

We don't have any LEGO stores in the North of England. Sorry to be so unhelpful but you say "I got a question" and then don't ask one. Quote
