Vader Posted November 30, 2004 Posted November 30, 2004 I believe that lego has a policy where they wont make any war themes and they will only make lines of sets that are world related and not just for one specific country.
Orlego Posted November 30, 2004 Posted November 30, 2004 I believe that lego has a policy where they wont make any war themes and they will only make lines of sets that are world related and not just for one specific country. Lego does have a policy about war themes. This is the reason I said I don't think they would ever make a Army version of the Hummer, however, anything is possible. Lego has and still does make sets and themes just for some countries. Bellville was a collection we could not get in the states for some time. We now get them but they are considered "Imports". We also don't have the Lego house that is currently on the Euro market... just to give a few examples.
Vader Posted November 30, 2004 Posted November 30, 2004 Why is the house set not available in the US??
Orlego Posted November 30, 2004 Posted November 30, 2004 I have no idea. Lego does this quite often. I guess they think the the house will not sell well in the U.S.
Vader Posted November 30, 2004 Posted November 30, 2004 Thats a shame i know lots of friends in the US that would love to get that set :(
David85 Posted November 30, 2004 Posted November 30, 2004 I have no idea. Lego does this quite often. I guess they think the the house will not sell well in the U.S. They do not do it that often, only with the airline special sets. Is it offical that the house is not coming to the USA?

They do it more often than you think! According to corp., the U.S. will not see that house, however we do have a house designer set, but this is just a set with a bunch of different home pieces.
Vader Posted November 30, 2004 Posted November 30, 2004 Yeah thats not fair, they should just make it a shop at home item so everyone gets a chance to own it.
Orlego Posted November 30, 2004 Posted November 30, 2004 Yeah, and if you try to look it up on S@H it tells you "Not available in your country"
Orlego Posted November 30, 2004 Posted November 30, 2004 NOW I'M PISSED!!!!!!!!! Don't get pissed yet, I'm giving it a few more months before I mark it as dead for the US market. Today they will state that it will never be released in the US, then next week they have it in stores. This has happened only a hand full of times, but it has happened.
jonfett Posted November 30, 2004 Posted November 30, 2004 Geezz... you guys have been busy the last day. I have not read a reply since page 19 and now you are on 26!!! I will have to read it all when I am not too busy. Jon.
Vader Posted November 30, 2004 Posted November 30, 2004 Better read it quickly the way were going it will be up to 40 in no time :-D
David85 Posted November 30, 2004 Posted November 30, 2004 I think it will be slowing down because there are no new pictures really left until STar Wars, but those are top-top secret.
Ras 74 Posted November 30, 2004 Posted November 30, 2004 Well, I guess those are the only pics we misses right now. And I
David85 Posted November 30, 2004 Posted November 30, 2004 New year is episode three. Lego is out of ideas from other movies, that was shown. So what does Lego do when they can't think of something new? TIE SETS!!!! :D
Ras 74 Posted December 1, 2004 Posted December 1, 2004 You are hilerious David... :D Come over for a cop of tea so we can just sit down and talk... TIE SETS!!!! That one was good... If you get in contact with LEGO, tell them to call me... I got PLENTY of ideas for them to make...
David85 Posted December 1, 2004 Posted December 1, 2004 Anyone with a half of brain have ideas for Star Wars sets. Like I said anyone with half of a brain.... *Glares at the color changing freaks.....
Vader Posted December 1, 2004 Posted December 1, 2004 I dont think that they were out of ideas as theirs plenty of other sets that they could of done, IMO they needed to earn a quick buck and they knew that sets like the falcon/x wing/ ties would sell and up there already down profits.
David85 Posted December 1, 2004 Posted December 1, 2004 They aren't going to do sets that cost an arm and leg. All the sets left are expensive pointless ships, they have done the main ships, and they are only going to do ships. I want them to make a new A-Wing, my favorite ship, and a new B-WIng. I wish they would make a V-Wing from the STar Wars video games, that would be cool.
Vader Posted December 1, 2004 Posted December 1, 2004 If this was another website david you would be hear this: LEGO dont have the license to make EU ships etc..... Even tho they made a tie droid which to my understanding is a EU ship, thank god were not on that website :-D I would love a new B-wing and i wouldnt mind a new A-wing. :oD I wouldnt call a sail barge or sandcrawler pointless i mean they gave us a MTT and a Ep 1 speeder to me their not as good as the barge or crawler.
Ras 74 Posted December 1, 2004 Posted December 1, 2004 All right David. you said a man with half a brain.... And you say there are meningless stuff to make left... Hmmm... There should be sets like: 1. Hoth Luke and one of this animal he rides and a wompa 2. Death Star play set. Maybe in two pieces. Each like the Cloud City. 3. Mensioned above (Sail Barge as UCS, but in minifig size) 4. Mensioned above (Sandcrawler, as a traditional set, with jawas and stuff) 5. A new Desert Skiff with Lando as a guard and Leia as the boutyhunter 6. Tie Interceptor 7. And then there are several things that can be remade A-wing, B-wing, AT-ST with the right pilot and Imperial shuttle Well I will make the list longer if someone like. this was just what came to my mind right now...
Vader Posted December 1, 2004 Posted December 1, 2004 Dont forget: Emperors throne room playset Han, chewie and a probe droid Hoth cannon tower with rebel solders Endor bunker with stormie, ewoks and rebels And thats just off the top of my head.
ApophisV Posted December 1, 2004 Posted December 1, 2004 Emperors throne room playset Not satisfied with Final Duel I??? |:|
