emilec Posted December 11, 2008 Posted December 11, 2008 Hi I missed the chance to grab the 2008 Batman sets, would anyone be willing to trade for them? Were they only available from Lego in the UK or did other stores get them? Im looking for 7888 Tumbler, 7885 Penguin and 7884 Mr Freeze, luckily managed to pick up 7886 my local Lego shop this week. I have various MISB sets (Star Wars, Batman, City, Indy etc.) lots of figures and classic sets that im willing to trade for these. I live in the UK but will trade worldwide for these.
WhiteFang Posted December 11, 2008 Posted December 11, 2008 Emilec, welcome to Eurobricks. There are some rules which I must emphasis to you. First of all, the topic's agenda is "trade" in nature, and posting it in the LEGO Licensed forum, is not meant for such topics. Such topics belong to the BSTF (Buy, Sell, Trade, Find) Forum. However, I believe members whom belong to the "Vassals" group are not allowed to post topic. There is no haste to create such topic. Let Eurobricks community get to know you better. I hope you have understand my intentions. If there is any further questions, feel free to drop me a pm. For your reference, below is the extract from the BSTF forum rules. Thanks, and please enjoy your time with us. WhiteFang. We've added a new guideline to this forum. After an influx of members who were trying to sell or trade with their first post, we've changed the permissions of this forum so that vassals cannot post new topics here. This is to protect our members from people who may be here just to scam...Don't cheat / Be smart and don't be cheated / Vassals can't post new topics in here. :-)
WhiteFang Posted December 14, 2008 Posted December 14, 2008 Topic has been re-opened. The above trade from emilec is valid. Please continue the trade discussion in this topic. Thanks. WhiteFang
emilec Posted December 14, 2008 Author Posted December 14, 2008 (edited) I recently emailed Lego about the availbility of these sets in the future and received this reply. Thanks for getting in touch with us. It's great to hear you're interested in Batman series. We have not made a decision whether this sets will be back in stock again or not. They will not be back in stock before Christmas at least. Is this is normal response from Lego to such questions? They haven't ruled out a rerelease in their response.

KimT Posted December 14, 2008 Posted December 14, 2008 Sounds like an "Erhm...we really don't have a clue as to what sets you're asking about" I suggest you check Bricklink.com or eBay.com for the sets. But hopefully someone in here can help you out. Good luck in getting what you're looking for
Stash2Sixx Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Current movie licensed sets tend to move very fast. Notice that the biggest set this time around was a $50 set, which just so hapenned to correlate to the movie....Joker....Tumbler....Plus, I noticed a lot of magazines including Batman LEGO sets in their "hot holiday items." As for LEGO restocking this item, I really don't see it hapenning, at all. This is one of the most sought after sets this holiday season, with the other two being the Police Headquarters and Agents: Mission 6, Mobile Command Center. LEGO LAW: If you wait or put off purchasing a set, when you go back to find it, it probably won't be there. Good luck!!!!
natelite Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 LEGO LAW: If you wait or put off purchasing a set, when you go back to find it, it probably won't be there. you misquoted the law. it's actually: the sets you did buy will be on sale 2 weeks later at much lower prices while the sets you didn't buy will be out of stock and BL/ebay for 2x RRP.
emilec Posted December 17, 2008 Author Posted December 17, 2008 Hi, Thanks for the info. Obviously hoping Lego do re-release!
