Shadows Posted November 19, 2008 Posted November 19, 2008 Feedback would be great, and if you find one, be sure to tell me where so I can get uncle Jon on it x The LEGO Store in Orlando is sold out of everything but the largest set, but there have been quite a few reports of TRU having various sets in stock. All you can really do is have him drop in and check a few, or call ahead and hope that someone will actually look. If you're more specific about what city he is in, a member there might be able to provide more specific information. Good luck! Quote
Paul cantu Posted November 20, 2008 Posted November 20, 2008 Go to: http://www.toysrus.com/search/index.jsp?kw...254197&sr=1 AKA :ToysRus.com and order the set you want. It will be easier then trying to get your uncle to find a set. Quote
AwesomeStar Posted November 20, 2008 Posted November 20, 2008 Yes, but I live in the UK. Will it ship here? Quote
BigDumbWookiee Posted November 21, 2008 Posted November 21, 2008 So I see Pirate Survival and Soldier's Fort up on Toys R Us' site. Have these shown up in their stores yet? What about Soldier's Arsenal or Brickbeard's Bounty? Quote
Capt. Bluebeard Posted November 21, 2008 Posted November 21, 2008 Yes, but I live in the UK. Will it ship here? I'm guessing no, seeing as it's the US site. Bluebeard, out- Quote
Lego_kid Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 I brought my Brickbeard's Bounty yesterday and finished building it, I added a lot "little" details to it, and will post picture later tonight. I am wondering will Lego release anymore ships this year? Comments anyone? Quote
Zarkan Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 Well, rumored summer setlists are already out, and there's no sign of a second Pirates wave. However, I think we can be assured that we'll see more sets in 2010, which I'm personally betting will include a ship for the Imperials. Quote

However, I think we can be assured that we'll see more sets in 2010, which I'm personally betting will include a ship for the Imperials. I think they will, beause last night when i went to TRU, there are only few pirate sets left. To me Lego are making big money on this series. I believe they will keep them coming, and will not be surpise to see another pirate ship. ay can't wait! Quote
SWMAN Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 I have a feeling that they will go down the same road as the old Pirate theme and release multiple Pirate and Imperial ships, big and small. Quote
WisrthanU Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 Smaller ships would be nice, for the people on a tight budget... Quote
Svelte Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 (edited) I think TLG has done an excellent job of mixing small, medium and large sets for the initial wave. If you look at the original wave released in 1989, it's kind of similar to that. Some small Impulse type sets, a raft, a small island, a Pirate hideout, a large ship... there's a few less sets today but if the line sells well then I expect we'll see an expansion of the fleet.

donlego Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 i think it will gonna be like in the past, big ship every year i think smaller ship for imperial will be released next semester Quote
Tacitus Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 My guess is that LEGO is testing the waters, so to speak, with a small starter series with each model hitting at the usual price points in order to get a sense of market demand, as opposed to AFOL demand. New lines carry a lot of cost and risk. Be patient. I would think that the February toy conventions will unveil one or two new ships. And it wouldn't surprise me if they hit the shelves in August or July. Quote
Guss Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 I totally agree with tacitus, they're testing ^^ if it sells well ( and I think it does! ) I 'm pretty sure we'll see more ship soon ^^ Quote
Captain Blackmoor Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 Agree with you all, I think the new pirates line will be expanded with at least an Imperial ship, perhaps some French bluecoats, Spanish conquistadors and Natives as well. At least I hope so Quote
Ye Olde Pirate Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 When will the new lego pirates ship to stores like Walmart and Target? Quote
Erdbeereis Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 I don't think there's an official word on exactly when, but from my experience next year's sets usually turn up a little after Christmas. Of course Toys R Us and LEGO Shop At Home have most of them already. Quote

That is not true! None of the Toys R Us in Vancouver have them yet, I've been looking for them ever since the reviews came out on EB, apparently, Canada gets new LEGO much slower. Quote
Tim Bit Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 That is not true!

Good to now that another Vancouverite agrees with me on the fact that Canada is slow at receiving lego. I do find that summer sets come in a couple days before official release. Theres always shop at home for now. Quote
Ricecracker Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 Hey, more Canadians! and i also have been searching high and low (at my local TRU ) for the pirate sets. PS. i live in toronto Quote
ProducePrincess Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 That is not true!

The usa gets lego before canada because of shipping reasons im guessing. after christmas is my best guess for when the new pirates will be on most shelves, it was about a week ago when we found pirate sets in stores anyways. they will be here soon enough Quote

Tim Bit Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 In 2007 the star wars jan sets didn't come out till the summer sets were released. I'm expecting pirates in early January though. Quote
Da Death Star! Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 I honestly didn't know there were other Canadians on EB. . . . Alas,it is true that Canada gets Lego sets late. BUT!There is hope!(At least for Edmontonians)So I have dreams about getting the new sets at the end of every Year(Last Year it was Antroz and Lewa Phantoka from Bionicle),but the boxe's always look nothing like the real ones(And all those times I got the sets Late).But this Time,the boxe's looked EXACTLY like the real ones!And I recognized the shelf!(superstore specifically)So don't lose hope fellow Canadians!There is hope! Quote
Captain Blackmoor Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 I live in Europe and there's nothing to see here yet. I think the pirates sets will come out in Europe early Januari. Although, we can buy them from Ebay but even the S@H and Toy's'Rus haven't any pirate sets. Of course Januari is coming close, but for me it can't go fast enough. Quote
