Vindice Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 Any news on UK release? 2 weeks ago Amazon uk had them on the website for pre-order with a release date of August 1st but they were all removed within days. I had hoped they would be available in June. Any ideas? Quote
Igoran Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 In Russia second half sets have appeared already today. Quote
GRogall Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 Was at the Munich Brand store today and all the new SW sets are now available! Quote
Brickdoctor Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 Was at the Munich Brand store today and all the new SW sets are now available! Great! We can expect lots of reviews then, soon. Quote
Mr Man Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 All the new SW sets are now available! All including Hoth? Quote

I had hoped they would be available in June. Any ideas? I keep checking LS@H as Alien Conquest and (I think) Harry Potter sets came out quite a bit earlier than expected. Has anyone got a definate UK price for the Podracers? There is quite a big difference between 99 Euros and 89 Dollars (!) Edited May 25, 2011 by jamzee Quote
JamesBenjamin Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 All including Hoth? I'm guessing that even if the Hoth set isn't available, there will be pictures of it inside the instructions for one of the other sets. I'd think we'll see more soon. Quote
DarthR2-D2 Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 This is probably really redundant but where can I find a 1999 STAP (from the 7121 Naboo Swamp). I broke it down and now I can't find all the pieces. Quote

Emperor Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 (edited) I'm guessing that even if the Hoth set isn't available, there will be pictures of it inside the instructions for one of the other sets. I'd think we'll see more soon. Nope. All the new sets are available in Germany and there are reviews of a small set (Ewok Attack), a middle-sized set (Geo Fighter) and a large set (Frigate), and none of it contained any pictures of the Hoth set. I guess it will be a random release like the Dropship, until the release of the Executor TLG has nothing to release for SW fans, so why not throw in a nice big Hoth set?

Cwetqo Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 I was also at Munich store (Grogall, maybe we saw each other :) ). There were several new sets, but not even close to all. I saw Republic Frigate, Imperial V-wing and Dathomir Speeder (not 100% sure). No sign of Ewok Atack (which I would buy) or new MF. To bad, because otherwise they had all 2H sets from other themes, except maybe Alien Attack (dont remember, It was a quick visit during Laser 2011 fair) Quote

If you just want a STAP in general wait till this winter's sets, it's likely going to be Episode 1 dominated. Quote

Super Brick Collector Posted May 26, 2011 Posted May 26, 2011 When are the sets going to hit the US? At the end of July. But originally it's supposed to be August. Quote
Brickdoctor Posted May 26, 2011 Posted May 26, 2011 At the end of July. But originally it's supposed to be August. Technically it still is August, it's just that some stores put the sets out early. Quote
LEGO AFOL Posted May 27, 2011 Posted May 27, 2011 The first wave of starwars have 2 special edition. The starfighter and the proton cannon. Second wave got Naboo fighter and base. In my country, star fighter can be bought from shop but Proton cannon is Toy r us exclusive like Home one and 8129 AT AT walker. I think second wave also. I like the way LEGO label special edition and limited edition. The helicopter 3658 also toy r us exclusive in my country. Quote
Vindice Posted May 27, 2011 Posted May 27, 2011 I keep checking LS@H as Alien Conquest and (I think) Harry Potter sets came out quite a bit earlier than expected. Has anyone got a definate UK price for the Podracers? There is quite a big difference between 99 Euros and 89 Dollars (!) Some shops online are expecting them at the beginning of June and Amazon uk, as I said, had them up for release August 1st but pulled them off the site within days. I remember last years summer wave was out at least by the start of July. Quote
CF Mitch Posted May 27, 2011 Posted May 27, 2011 For the Dutch people and possibly for other european countries. Just noticed Bol.com has the new summer wave sets up for sale Thanks for the tip Just ordered the Republic Frigate Can't wait till it gets here Quote
lucasanakin Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 The SW Sets are availiable in Austria http://angebote.toysrus.glispa.com/Roto06_AT/index.html they also have the Naboo Fighter on Stock. Yesterday i bought 3 Sets (Endor, Dathomir Speeder + Genosian Fighter) greetings from Vienna Rainer Quote
CF Mitch Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 Sorry for double post... But today I saw all the new SW sets, beside the Geonosian Starfighter) at the Intertoys at Spui The Hague! Thought you'd like to know Regards, Mitch Quote

Thego Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 How those the Hoth set look like? I think he means the summer wave. Hoth isn't due until later in the year. Quote
Bobskink Posted May 29, 2011 Posted May 29, 2011 Shouldn´t it be less expensive to make several Anakin heads with his regular expression and then printing the ones for the podracers set again with the goggle/painfull one? The set comes with two brown pilot helmets with grey goggle part attached to. I don´t think Anakin needs two goggles, but the expression could still fit with some of the scenes. The dutch/german shopping site from before already lists the main wave sets as orderable. I bought the Nightspeeder, Infiltrator and Fregatte (when the Nightspeeder was still in stock) and they should arrive in a few days. I am going to make reviews for the first two when they arrive. All the sets are already for sale in Belgium. But I bought a Duplo Cars2 set :) Quote
